Analysis of Black Man-Eating Widow (B.M.W)
i've been caught off-guard
in a web of lies
by a big black widow
who wants me as her prize
she has to have me
dead or alive
she making me lose
lose my mind
i've been by the borderline
of genius and insanity
the spawns of that big black widow
has challenged me
she has to have it her way
or she'll hit the highway
she haunts my heart and gives me
a headache the second that i wake
i've been thought of
as a cancerous man
by a big black widow who wants to
save my life and give me a second chance
she has to stab me
in the back
she can't have me
let's just face the facts
