sharing what’s inside/
of your heart and your soul/
But then when it comes time/
To open up your mind/
It seems as if your blind/
and out of control/
Talking and listening at the same time won’t work/
Thinking submission is a felony crime won’t work/
The current condition of how love is defined doesn’t work/
We’re in this position because most don’t want to do the work/
Red Pill/ Glass of water/ head back/ take a shot/
Just chill/ I taught her/ how to move/ how to rock/
In the street/ Yin & Yang/ Showed her money ain’t a thang/
Gave her love/ gave her me/ Now she’s happy as can be/
We share our chicken wings/
we talk about everything & anything/
Be it old school/ new school/
Jazz/ Pop – Hip-Hop/ Quarter waters/ fast cars/
Motorcycles/ Rock Stars/ how we got our scars/
Who was at the bar/
Love doesn’t hurt/ Lies hurt/
Love works/ Ten toes/ To the dirt/
Is how we should treat each other/
Here comes the chatter/
About the things that matter to you/
But I don’t think your preferences help us love each other/
He’s gotta be rich/
He’s gotta be tall/
He’s gotta be cute/
He cannot be small/
That’s cool/
till a man/ takes a stand on a preference too/
Y’all act like you never cared/
I won’t take it there/
I’ll just end the verse here/
Your standing one one side/
and fighting for one side/
sharing what’s inside/
of your heart and your soul/
But then when it comes time/
To open up your mind/
It seems as if your blind/
and out of control/
Talking and listening at the same time won’t work/
Thinking submission is a felony crime won’t work/
The current condition of how love is defined doesn’t work/
We’re in this position because most don’t want to do the work/
We’re in a new era/ a new page of the story/
women are now in power/ & as the ladies step into glory/
It is obvious to me that the current division/
between men and women/ is swimming/
in old traditions/ & new beginnings/
Old traditions were like “My Way or the Highway”/
New beginnings are like “My Way or the Highway”/
Women & Men have been battling for control/ wrestling with their souls/
Like compromise isn’t the goal/
The focus is never on family/ Just what can you do for me?/
Can I hit it for free?/ If not then how much is the fee?/
It will cost your sanity/ your vanity/ your dignity/ and humanity/
and half of your salary/
Let’s be honest/ about the traumas/ before the promise/
before the drama/ before the his & hers pajamas/
Let’s do/ something new/ I submit/ & so do you/
pray together/ stay together/ Y’all all know that is true/
Or we can run in place where we are/
and never raise the bar/
never shoot for the stars/
& continue to act bizarre/
She goes to a corner/
He goes to a corner/
Before the opening ding/
& prepare to swing/
Your standing one one side/
and fighting for one side/
sharing what’s inside/
of your heart and your soul/
But then when it comes time/
To open up your mind/
It seems as if your blind/
and out of control/
Talking and listening at the same time won’t work/
Thinking submission is a felony crime won’t work/
The current condition of how love is defined doesn’t work/
We’re in this position because most don’t want to do the work~
