You know not what I now know

You lied to get my understanding,

You cheated for my approval,

You thought the thug life

Was what I wanted

When all I asked for was

The truth of this occasion.

I didn't mean for this to happen,

But now as you're sitting in prison,

I begin to question each other's appreciation

And I'm wondering if I need your devotion.

Don't despise me for I did,

When I praised you during orientation.

Perhaps if you knew me a little better

You wouldn't have slit your neck

To get my attention.
