    THE BURN (lesson learned)

    What's up fellas. Gonna kick a blow by blow of my 1st experience in the game after 2 decades of bein with the same femme. As I look back on this, I gotta laugh. Ya boy was lost and turned out ya heard. 4 real though here's my motto. if U try 2 be a playa and the real one come along ten U been playin yourself all along. My Lady, u know who Uare, I thank U 4 the lessons learned. Since U I ain't been burned. Hope Ur doing well

    Lemme phase this...


    If you dug a particular phrase
    I used in my speech
    Then why did U play
    Like M.J.
    I reach
    U teach

    U asked 4 full disclosure
    I came at U real
    Then U bribed the judge and jury
    And got an appeal
    U said Dee kill me softly
    I don't wanna be hurt
    Then U wanted me 2 do it like Bohannon
    So U could squirt

    U asked 4 romance
    So I was sweet like syrup
    From a maple tree
    Then U demanded a Tube
    Of Extasy
    I said sho nuff baby girl
    My Love is Unlimited
    When I orchestrate like
    Barry White
    Little did I know U meant
    The Porn site

    I made reservations
    For a four star restaurant
    U wanted B.Y.O.B.
    I tried 2 be a smooth bon vivant
    U wanted a threesome
    With a P.A.W.G with a close up P.O.V.

    U acted white collar
    Publically
    then you wanted
    My Pube-Bick
    2 do Rubic
    Ice cubes
    And sado-masicism intensity


    I had a preminition
    That U would
    Cross the line
    Sho nuff U started
    Giving unwanted advivce
    Bout me and mine
    Told me U should make
    Ur Ex suffer
    I might act like a turkey
    But I ain't an oven stuffer
    My child won't be a buffer
    If my break up git rougher

    I told U we can't go out Friday
    This is the dreaded
    Week of debt
    U said Dee
    It's on me
    With all due respect
    Now that was a rule
    I never broke
    And sure nuff when the check came
    U started 2 choke

    I got food poisoning
    Should been an Omen
    But my internal alarm
    Was faulty
    Like Slo-men
    I know now some women
    Earn your respect
    Some
    Just wanna
    Come
    Correct
    Some women U build up
    Some you just erect

    U brought my dawg out
    Then bought a cage
    Everytime I acted chill
    U got enraged
    I thought this woman
    Is crazy
    I get angry very seldom
    But when I do
    It's hazy
    If I was Morgan Freeman
    I would've driven Miss Daisy
    Right over a cliff
    Flipped on some Bob Marley
    And flamed a spliff

    I woke up one day
    Said my prayers
    Then I heard footsteps
    On my stairs
    I was the old and improved Dee
    He said
    You learned your lessons
    Class is through
    So I blessed myself
    Called U on the phone
    And said
    With all respect due
    F--K YOU

    Now I neva cruse out ladies
    But A lady U neva been
    I know now
    U walk with God
    Bad things come 2 an end
    God don't want me being
    A punk
    Nah, that ain't never been Dee
    How I let all that stuff slide
    Was a revelation to me

    I thought never again
    Brothers
    The only femme
    U should tolerate
    Is a long time girlfriend
    Or wife
    The dating game
    Should'nt
    Mentally maim
    Or cause internal strife
    So know when my boys
    Ask why ain't U dating
    I tell 'em if the femme
    Treat ya like Mandingo
    It's Master-debilitating

    Naw, the koolest feeling
    In the world
    Is knowing U got game
    And deciding not 2 play
    But I'll call ya
    If I'm Jones-in 4 a tube
    Of EX TA SAY

    Shout out 2 the real Ladies
    The versatile ones
    Sometimes U feel like a nut
    Sometimes U don't dig me?
    It's about timimg, spacing and maturity
    Promise
    IFFFFFFFFF....I MEET YOU
    I'll let U be U
    Cuz I'm gonna damn sure be me
    Who am I?

    Just a cat who learned his lessons...WELL!

    I'm out..peace
