I Gave It All To Him
by C'Moore Productions

I was young, naive, and insecure
He was cute, shy, and just my type.
Even though I was quite unsure.
He asked for a commitment
So I gave it to him.

I was happy, confident, and so in love.
He was caring, supportive, and always there.
Even though my focus should have been on God above.
When he asked for my intimacy.
I gave it to him.

I was smart, hardworking, and on my way.
He was distant, pre-occupied, and unavailable
Even though I wanted so badly to stay
When he asked for some space
I gave it to him

I was lonely, suspicious, and sad.
He was kickin' it, single, and glad.
Even though I knew I was being had
When he asked me for my trust
I gave it to him.

I was determined, persistent, and steadfast.
He was sneaking, lying, and cheating.
Even though I could never forget the past.
When he asked me for a chance to prove himself,
I gave it to him.

I was scared, uncertain, and afraid.
He was getting the best of both worlds.
Even though there was no reason I should have stayed,
When he asked me to give him one more chance,
I gave it to him.

I was confronted, judged, and pushed away.
He was dishonest, insincere, and illogical.
Even though there was a new catastrophe everyday
When he asked me for more attention
I gave it to him.

When the man of my dreams came to rescue me.
He gave me everything he had unselfishly
But me, I had nothing left to give away.
When he asked me why, all I could do was say...
I'm sorry, I gave it all to him.

"I Apologize" by Art Addiktion
(for any lady that has been hurt in a relationship.)

I apologize black woman for all the seen and unseen lies,
For the heartache and pain that brought tears in your eyes.

I apologize black woman for not being true from the start,
for running away from you, leaving a hole in your heart.

For ignoring your feelings and pushing them aside,
because I was too damn arrogant and pumped up with pride.

I apologize for making promises that I couldn`t keep,
for building a foundation based on treachery and deceit.

Being selfish and inconsiderate, I did what I wanted to do,
making costly decisions without thinking of you.

I apologize for not holding you through restless nights

and stormy days, for my immature thoughts and my foolish ways.

Instead of carrying your love with me, I just threw it on the shelf,
after we made love I turned away, only thinking of myself.

You cried your heart for me, while I was out running wild and loose,
I destroyed the essence of your love
with physical, mental, & emotional abuse.

I gave you hell black woman by giving up when times got rough,
I didn`t slap you, I pushed you, I neglected you--
even that`s bad enough!!!

Now I see why you build a wall around you, because it is me you despise,

but that`s the price that I have to pay for all the times I wore a disguise.
I pray to GOD that one day you will realize
that I LOVE YOU BLACK WOMAN. I APOLOGIZE
