How Real Love Is
Let me start by stating love is not easy
Love does not come fast
Cause I’m only 21
And honestly I been working my ass off for love
Sometimes I think it won’t come
So I settle for just a woman’s touch
But I’m young
I got a lifetime
To find
What I feel is the right one
But it’s a shame cuz I fear the women of my generation
Focus solely on payment
And skip the need for intelligent conversation
The population of material girls
Has grown since Madonna
And it seems like every girl I knew in high school
Is somebody’s baby mama
And the rest think a relationship
Is all about the drama
What happened?
What happened to talking?
Midnight walking
Looking up at the sky
Exchanging our goals in life
When did it all become a business transaction?
Sometimes I think people get married just for the taxes
I have yet to meet someone who isn’t easily enraged
About another girl looking my way
Or hearing
“Why dat chick, be all on yo facebook page”
I don’t need that
I don’t deserve it
I mean I'm far from perfect
But I’m far from worthless
I just ask for a lil more maturity
Less insecurity
More attention for me
Without the need for jewelry
I’m just wondering if that’s too much to ask
But I have hope that Ill stumble on a girl
Whose mind is shaped
To handle the weight of a mature relationship
That understands the concept of partnership
And knows that I do everything to make them happy
And will do the same for me
So in time I’ll see
If there’s hope for my love life just yet
And I’m willing to bet
She’s out there
Just waiting to see just how real
Love feels
Like me,
Just waiting to see how real love is
