Grits — Blame It On You

[VERSE 1] She was a friend of me, who soon became the enemy My heart said it was meant to be Cold sweats and nightmares of killing her for breaking the Vow to be one, from corruption of adultery Praying at night, this day I'll never see through Who knew this gal was out to get me for yams Having dreams of her scam, professed before I had fans Delilah's kisses of deception was my justified stance Ignorance self contained in disobedient hands Infatuation, claim it true, is definition of this Female relation contradicting with my standards for Mrs Witnessed the hand of God, began divisions progress As vengeance for all my pain grew deep in my flesh Decisions to sever bonds, that of distraught and distress No less than fullness, tribulated till bliss Found peace once released from the grip of the stress The culprit responsible found to be the likeness of me In terms of images I blamed this on self For not protecting my affections from seductions of hell Her spell had me bound like bank tellers and hostages Smell had me fooled like designer female imposter scents Why does it happen to the best of God's men? We fall from desires of fruit that's been forbidden From beginning of time we men blaming the women It ain't their fault that their fine, we need to wait till its given [HOOK] I blame it on you, take the blame from me If you was in my shoes, you'd do the same to me Repercussion are felt, from the hand that was dealt I done used up all my aces, what I face is needing help [VERSE 2] Feeling remorse from divorce Letting nature take its ugly course Catapulting two people in love to insulting I wish I never met you Baby doll compliance, join the concubine Jagged like a porcupine, alliance In reliance on self searching for my key but elf in trees On the wrong side of the woods, and thats no good Dancing earnestly with form and swift Swearing up and down she legit Ain't noticed lightning bolts and storms about to hit When I made them vows, I heard the screams and saw the cows Paid no mind, ignoring all the warning signs From top to bottom of my female Monkeying around their dream, believer Believing in happiness forever Mind was crappyness from unclever, unclear Temporarily brain dead Sank my teeth in a poison cornbread of a rehab We were woven, then we dove in The water rose above our heads That's when the flesh came to life Then the Spirit metamorphed to debt She killed me softer than a refugee And made sure was nothing left of me Bamboozled by a Sheila Went from united as one Through a process labeled marriage To less than half a man Single dad pushing a baby carriage Pure and utter struggle, responsibilities we juggle I find it funny, but ain't no matter to scoff about or chuckle Might lose my stature, a superman with no Teri Hatcher I stand alone this time, giving the Lord my heart to capture
