Skeptical

Standing at the window

Watching the rain

Brings a sense of peace

Yet my mind is wondering

Is there a man for me?

Independent as can be

Strong as a rock

But I still want a man to love me

To hold me and to listen

To laugh and relax

See I met this dude

Cool as can be

I'm feeling him and I think  he's feeling me

Our vibe is chill

Just need to be sure he's real

I can tell he's guarded

Which is what people expect from me

The truth is I detached so long ago

My heart isn't hurt now, just my ego

I'm looking for someone who shakes my soul

All the right moves, but that last nigga left me skeptical

Swept me off my feet

And left me in the cold

My loyalty is true

Trust me when I say I got you

So don't be fooled by my tough exterior

Deep down in there is a heart waiting to be secured

I learned as a child I couldn't depend on another

So I handle mine without a wink

I move swiftly, had enough time to think 

I work for what I want

And won't miss a beat

Just promise you'll try to keep up with me

I rock my crown with pride

Because I know what lies inside

You see, A queen holds her King high

So together they can rise

But it takes two, a king has a part to do

Guard her heart and love her soul

And maybe together you they can grow old

At this point I don't know what my future holds

I'm enjoying each day as the story unfolds

All of this flowing through me like the rain

With each drip I hear, I release my pain
