Malik Songtext
von Lafayette Afro-Rock Band

Dear Mark,
You′re the one with the words, but my side should be
Heard, think that it's fuckin absurd, you talk about me
When you rap about her, all of your songs, hear about all
Of my wrongs, like you never played me like pong, like
You never went out and did nothing wrong, it′s crazy
Forever turned into so long, and now that you're gone, I
Had to move on, and I'm happy with him, but I still can′t
Pretend that I didn′t go fuck with your friend every now
And again I be thinking of then, I be thinking that that was
Something I would never intend, and especially when it
Was me who you trusted to take all your feelings and try
To re-mend, it's so hard to pretend, I would lie in your bed,
Giving you head, listen to all of the things that you said,
Listen to all of the lyrics you read, you were chasing a
Dream I would party instead, young and in love, young and
We′re dumb, I can taste all of the pain in your tongue, I
Can taste all of my pain in the rum, knew it was over
Before it begun, looking for fun, burning my lungs,
Learning my favorite feeling was numb, bought every


Dinner you barely bought one, maybe I cheat and then we
Could be done, that would be done, we were so broke, you
Were the one that turned into a joke, I kept us a float, you
Were the one that kept us on a rope, damn, now you're the
Man huh, I see you turned into somebody I can′t stand
Huh, and knowing you you made this all part of your plan
Huh, you crazy fuck I had the chance I should have ran
Huh! Never would tell me you cared, never were there,
Remember that night that we went to the fair, every fine
Girl that walked by you would stare, see even when there
Mark you never were there, if all I care about is my make-
Up and hair, all you care about is the ego you wear, you
Tear me apart and continue tear, now I'm with someone
Who actually cares fuck you! But I can′t keep you off my
Mind, I'm seeing everything you drop sometimes I wish
That I was blind, you make me re-live my mistake a million
Trillion fucking times, see you're a coward, and a stupid
Rap persona′s what you hide behind, and my whole family
Still adores you, I tried a million times I would have only
Did that for you, I can′t act like I don't know you, every
Night I would explore you, maybe me feel I was below
You, Mark I wish I could ignore you but I... can′t.
Near to you, I am healing but it's taking so long, cuz
Though he′s gone and you are wonderful it's hard to move
On.
Well Dear,
How then, could you tell me you love me again and again,
You were only a friend, it was hard to pretend, I wrote so
Many letters but never hit send, I was never content, I was
Set on me being a rapper, I thought about music and
Thought of you after, it′s funny how tears turn to laughter,
And tears on a page they can turn into a master... piece
(Peace) that's how you told me to leave, I remember that
Night it's as clear as can be, and you found a new man
And he loves that you drink and he loves getting head but
Don′t care what you think, you look pretty in pink, you
Look naughty in red, we know these are the words that
Would never be said, and we′re chasing a topic that's over
Your head, cuz you think about me every night as you lie
In your bed, that′s... real
Well I guess we all change, Mark, I guess we all change, I
Hope that you get everything that you want as you yell
And you stand on the stage, you took all your pain and
Turned it to fame, they're screaming your name and going
Insane, I kept all our pics but threw out the frame, before I
Knew Witt I knew Mark, now they′re one in the same, but
What about me muthafucka, forgot about me muthafucka,
Except when you talk about me muthafucka, I'm tired of
Hearing about me muthafucka, your mouth was a blessing
And now it′s a weapon, remember the time and the love
We invested, I'm posting a pic and I'm getting attention,
My tits and my ass get a favorite a second, see you were
With me and we′re thinking of her, now I′m with him and
I'm thinking of you, together to never whatever we were,
We′re stuck in a cycle the cycle is cruel, a couple of fools,
Stuck in a pool of people who wanna be cool, see we're
Never happy we′re happy so we keep on searching for
Love as if love was a jewel, remember that night that you
Came to my school, stayed up all night and we talked
About life, my parents and I we would constantly fight,
You said when you make it I might be a stay at home wife,
Apparently that wasn't right, re-living a moment that
Lasted a night, and honestly Mark gotta start to move on
With your life.
Sincerely,
A letter we never would... write
Like... what are "we" doing
Like... what am I doing
Writing these letters but what am I proving, I′m stuck in
My room and I'm spilling it all, making up what you would
Say if you called, I might be the biggest mistake of them
All, my biggest mistake was to think that I never could
Fall, like falling for you, falling in love, follow my dream it
Has all of my love, I just want to feel I've been feeling so
Numb, to think that I know how you′re feeling is dumb,
We′re done right from the start, I write from the heart, a
Light in the dark, they see that you're open and tear you
Apart, now this is "our" letter "we" sign it
Sincerely,
Mark
Now this is "our" letter "we" sign it
Sincerely,
Mark
