Take Care

You look away as I hurt, and all of a sudden I'm seven years old again trying to figure out why my mom doesn't like me

I think the impulses in you outweigh feelings of mine

I'm too dramatic, I know, please don't hit my line

I can't speak up when I feel undermined

Don't want you guilty, so I muster up a smile

When do I learn to take care?

I'm done fighting, having to compare

Worst part is those words are mine, not your's, you wouldn't dare

But girl I'm headed home so take care

Yeah I'll get home, but I can't promise you I'll be safe

The mania made me too brave

Greeted by this fuckass cozy room, I need a cave

I want it to be far, girl I need escape

Watching you fade into the night, you say to take care

Thinking 'bout you all alone, I'm pulling out my hair

The society of us, it don't got welfare

But I've seen it all before, I should've learnt to take care

Too empathetic and somewhat pathetic

But all across the spectrum I remain poetic

My mama say I know my self worth, and she's right

But only in the theoretic

I'm too intense, I'm too emotional

I self deprecate, and rant in boasts

For the first time in a long time don't feel like the goat

I'm not a wreck yet, but a sinking boat

When do I learn to take care?

I'm done fighting, having to compare

Worst part is those words are mine, not your's, you wouldn't dare

But girl I'm headed home so take care

When do I learn to take care?

I'm done fighting, having to compare

Worst part is those words are mine, not your's, you wouldn't dare

But girl I'm headed home so take care

Maybe It's you and and not me, and I should let you go

Or maybe us together, both got damaged souls

But If you love me so much, then why you let me go?

Now I'm guilt tripping myself, can't let the past go

On the other hand I'm more patient than most

If you don't run away then that deserves a toast

Who am I kidding? No saving this hoe
