In This Battle To Find a True Man

You said you'd always be there
And never let my heart tear
My past made me think the 
worst
It was hard to trust you at first
I kept barriers with the way I 
felt
But your words made me melt
You proved you'd never make 
me cry
So I thought I'd give you a try
Your presence brought me joy
You made me believe I was no 
toy
Things started to go well
You were the one I could tell
Just as I started giving you my 
heart
Things began to fall apart
All the promises made you 
started to break
I finally knew you were so fake
You mesmerized me with your 
charm
And acted like you were no 
harm
But all you ever wanted was a 
pass time
You treated me cheaper than a 
dime
It was a joke to you all along
You didn't care how much you 
did wrong
Now I'm left to think how blind I 
became
I was so stupid to fall for your 
game
You must be so proud to be you 
I bet I'm just one of the few
Your game will make you go 
mad
When karma gets you so bad
Yours actions have made me 
stronger
Now I'm ready to fight harder
I won't be a fool no more
Its like being in a war
