Wicked

Shawnice Pate 1991 (Brooklyn)



Done wrong, I always blamed myself

It had to be heart-felt.

Something to relate to.

We have bad ways we do.

The intentions we have for these actions.

Why would there be laughing?

There's a crime on hearts that got to pay.

A punishment we all to say.

Experiences that leaves us ashamed.

It makes us play wicked games.

When do games stop?

The solution will free us to the top.

The playing will come to the end.

There is nothing bad to befriend.
