Lyrics
To my ex
You can paint the picture of me being an evil ex
Just make sure you do it beautifully
Tell him how we used to be
How you played hangman with the truth but the noose was on me
Go on tell him
All the bad that I did
And convince him that I ruined we
Whoever comes next I beg you sit with him
Not just to get yourself out of trouble
But also to see how this shits affecting him
Cause it's harder
When the only one you open up to
Becomes the one you can't trust
Starts going crazy
Because you've convinced me that walking away's not love
But my hearts breaking
Because I don't know if there's two or three people in the word us
You took my concern for accusations
Maybe if you knew how much this shit hurt
You could've saved us
The next sentence I say is gonna hurt me hard
But love him
Love him the way you loved me at the start
Cause lord knows I would've given you
The world with the pennies in my pocket
I'm not saying I was perfect
Far from it
But it hurts
When the person who hurt you
Is more concerned with being in trouble
Than they are with being toxic
And I can already hear you shouting at this poem like
"Budz, you weren't perfect either"
If I corrected you
You'd say I'm acting like I'm perfect
Call it an attack if it was something you couldn't reverse quick
I remember the beginning
The way you told me people were
I should've seen it first
I believed everyone was unreasonable when it came to talking to you
Then I realised
You just don't know how to handle things when you're asked to
I hope you've stopped blaming everyone for your character flaws
That line was so hard for me to say to you when I was with you
Yes people can negatively affect your life
But you blamed everyone for everything
Sometimes don't just say "Well, that's what I'm used to okay"
Even if it is
It doesn't mean you can't change
You'll be okay
I have no bitter intentions
I pray your next is a blessing
Because you deserve everything
And if I ever see a picture on my TL with you in a wedding ring
I wouldn't regret a thing
It took me two years
Two years
To show you any jealousy
Because I understood that
The lady I had
Was one that everyone would need
So why would I be bothered if a guy tries
If he didn't I'd question his mind like
So truth is
You'll find a great guy without trying
I pray he deserves you as much as you deserve him
Whoever comes next needs to be a fighter
Cause you're the most difficult girl I've ever met in my life
But you're worth it when you get it right
You
You can tell me I handled things wrong or I changed up
But one thing you can never say is that I gave up
And I pray he won't either
And when you say to yourself
"I don't even know why I'm with this guy"
I hope you tell yourself that looks fade even when love doesn't
Cause he's messed up a bunch
But it's still you that he's in love with
And even when times get hard and he acts out
Because he's scarred or scared
Understand he's vulnerable
So cover his card before you pull it
There's not a single line in this piece with bitter intentions
I enjoyed every minute with my lover and best friend
Waking you up with "Good morning princess" and forehead kisses
I've learnt a lot from losing you
And it hurts that it won't be you I apply it to
So yeah to your next boyfriend all the best
Cause you're gonna need it
And when you feel defeated
Well I just pray she's there when you need it
You've got yourself a diamond
I just hope you can wipe away enough dust
To see how worth it she is
To your next boyfriend
Congratulations
You have a queen
