Dirty

Dirty
Over the years, my sole focus has been my club, my job, and my son,
No one else mattered to me,
And I certainly didn’t want an old lady,
I didn’t want to settle down,
I tried that route before when I was young and refused to try it again.
I thought I was in love, thought I was going to claim her,
But I was naive, and after I found her with someone else,
I realized it wasn’t love, it was lust, especially after she tried to trap me.
From that day on, I knew having a woman wasn’t in the cards for me,
Messing around and being a good father and brother are my sole focus.
Until I was forced to meet her,
My son’s teacher.
I was instantly entranced, and I wanted her,
I felt things I had never felt before, which shocked me,
But I learnt over the years, when a brother falls,
To grab hold of that person and never let them go,
And hope to hell that I don’t mess up as my brothers had with their women….
Famous last words, though.

Being a single, working mother, I’ve grown used to fending for myself,
With no family behind me, no friends,
My sole focus has been my daughter,
And despite how she came about, she’s my world,
And nothing else and no one else mattered to me, other than her and my career,
Until I met him.
He was a student’s father and completely out of my league,
But I still wanted him, and that scared me.
I tried to run from my feelings,
Refusing to give in, but what the heart wants, the heart gets,
And deep down I knew I couldn’t live without him.
But that didn’t matter to outside forces,
There was others who wanted him, too,
And I became their enemy.
They went after my passion, my child,
Everything I valued—my life—became their target.
I just don’t know if being with him is worth it all,
Worth all the heartache and the pain,
I just don’t know if I’m strong enough to fight for him like he wants,
Especially with so much stacked against us,
But as everything unfolds, I guess I should have realized he’ll never give up….
