Un-hitched

Ain't looking for a husband
Cause i know they got that bitch in em
Just looking for a partner
Down to ride, ain't got no snitch in em
A man to match my hustle
Ambitious, keep me motivated
Not the bullshit I just came from
Knocked me down, kept me domesticated
A hoe's not what I am
But a housewife's not me either
Wasted four good years of life
On a simple minded cheater
Proposal at the strip club
I was dumb and should have known
Instead found it romantic
You chose me who's fully clothed
Got married with our best friends
Wedding buddies I still love you
Thought I had found my soulmate
And I put noone above you
All I did and all I gave you
Didn't matter, wasn't enough
You put drugs above your family
And chose a path to self destruct
Don't get me wrong, I like drugs too
But they're meant for recreation
They'll surely ruin your life
If you seccumb to their temptation
Looking back it was a blessing
And for our kids I'm always grateful
But you destroyed my self esteem
When I found out you weren't faithful
Now I'm picking up the pieces
As I try to find myself
Expressing hidden feelings
To improve my mental health
Feeling lost and sometimes hopeless
But find comfort in a few
With them I share my thoughts
As I begin my life anew
