Please don't think I'm bitter

Please don't think I'm bitter....

for trying not to believe that all men are the same
while fighting off the angry black woman sterotype
Refusing to believe the Valentine's Day hype
when the truth is the 14th is the only day that some couples...
are a couple....

Please don't think I'm bitter...

When I just saw him with her and now who is she
While homie was just at my job pretending to be hubby
then whispering in my ear how I'm "special" and he could see himself loving me.

PLEASE....don't.. think.. I'm bitter...

If Disney has fed me one too many fairytales
about the king finding his queen
and I don't want to wake up one day and that damn glass shoe doesn't fit
or I'm asleep and I never get awakened by a prince...

Please don't think I'm bitter...

Because I'd rather sell reality than a fairytale,
and if it has to be a dream, I'd rather it be a goal
and if it has to be a wish, then I'd prefer to make it a prayer
so that I don't feel that my ambitions and aspirations have been sold.
for cheap.

So please don't think i'm bitter
