Excuse me sir,
Why must you weight me down?
With your lies, neglect,
and hand-me-down love?
Why must you take me off the shelf only for your eyes to see?
Oh right, I'm the pretty little secret.
The one that's behind the scenes helping you become a better man.
Is that why you have me locked in these chains?
You don't want this good lovin' to escape from you.
So why do you abuse it whenever you want to?
Use it all up..
Please I beg of you, set me free.
Of course not,
you wouldn't dare get rid of me.
I'm the one thing good in your life.
The woman who stand by your side.
So you chain down my heart
with your sweetness,
soft caress until my mind is in a daze and my heart is defeated.
You capture me with what seem like passion but I know you're just acting.
Doing whatever it takes..
You don't want me yet
but no one else can have me..
Til death do us part
yet you can never say with your mouth, I'm your wife to be..
So how can that be?
Why won't you let me go?
Let me move on?
Why must you trap me in a love
I no longer want to be in?
I laid my heart at your feet.
I gave you all of me.
All I ask is for you to break these chains..
Free me from this misery.
Allow me heal of the pain you inflicted. I know you won't, that's what weak man me do.
I'll be your prisoner until God take back the key and free me from you.
I can't escape you now
but boy when I do
