HIS ABUSE THAT LEFT YOU HANGING AND THAT HAD YOU SAYING "I CAN'T TRUST ANY OTHER MALE" HIS ABUSE THAT LEFT HIS OWN NEW Lil LIFE WITH HIS MOM ALL ALONE, TRUST ME ON THIS I WON'T HAVE YOU TO CRY WITH THIS
ABUSE

BUY CLOTHS, YOU KNOW GEAR TO GET G 'd UP, FOOD FOR THE HOUSE AND PAY THE BILLS. MONEY TALKS!! AND IT TALKS TO EVERYONE, THAT'S
WHAT MONEY CAN DO.
BUY JEWELRY, YOU KNOW "BLING BLING " AND SHOES OR EVEN PAY THE HAIR STYLIST, MONEY CAN SOMETIME OVER CONTROL THE BRAN THAT'S
WHAT MONEY CAN DO.
BUY CARS ,YOU KNOW A "PIMPED OUT WHIP" FURNITURE AND BUY A PET, MONEY SOMETIME BUYS ALL THE WRONG INSTEAD OF THE THINGS THAT ARE RIGHT, THAT'S
WHAT MONEY CAN DO.
MONEY IS IN FACT AN IMPORTANT PART IN LIFE AND WE ALL NEED IT TO SURVIVE, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO LOVE....
$$ MONEY CAN'T DO!!! $$

A REAL MAN TAKES GOOD CARE OF HIS LADY AND ALSO HIS FAMILY..WHEN CARED ABOUT
A REAL MAN WORKS HARD TO PAY THE BILLS
A REAL MAN NEVER CHEATS, OR STEAL FROM HIS LADY OR FAMILY
A REAL MAN NEVER HITS A WOMAN BECAUSE IF A " REAL MAN" HITS A WOMAN HE'S NOT SO A REAL MAN IS HE ?
IM A REAL MAN....

WHEN IM GONE I PROMISE YOU I'LL NEVER GET OVER YOU, BECAUSE YOU LEFT ME OVER WHAT YOU CAN'T HELP
WHEN IM GONE I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOU DO
WHEN IM GONE I'LL JUST BE GONE WITH KNOW LIFE , GIRL , KIDS AND NEVER MARRIED BECAUSE I ONLY WANTED TO BE WITH YOU , BUT NOW THAT IM GONE
YOU'LL ALWAYS BE RIGHT HERE...♥
