Underplayed
Tumult was I ready for the fight.
My mother use to tell me that I was too shy -
that I would avoid chaos and lose out.
However, those girls would not give up.
She says you are a peacekeeper until they f*ck*p!
How true is the truth?
Fracas was heard throughout this section of the city.
People from other parts would drive their cars to witness the mêlée.
I was never involved until one day those girls tested my faith.
I was sitting in the yard enjoying the sunshine…
When they came in front of the house talking loud.
– Nagging- [Those Girls]
Why does she think she is too much?
-Bragging-[-]
Is this a rumor you heard?
-Dragging-[Those Girls]
Not a word of response was given.
These girls knew to go on with their business.
