Clown

Wisdom tried to tell me I should leave her ‘lone
My nose was open, my ears were closed
Now my heart is broken when I should have known
And I feel like such a clown

Since I was a little one, Mama read me Proverbs 31
Get a woman who fears God my son
But I don’t see none and I want one, Uh oh
Didn’t wait on the Lord
Shorty looking at me eyes saying Mi Amour
And I know she ain't the woman I been lookin' for
Why not? What exactly am I looking for?
Forgot
Only for a second
That’s all it took
Caught like a fish them hips got me hooked
Don’t trip, I won’t ditch the good book
Just a little flirtatiousness
No big whoop

Now I’m with her 24/7 everybody hatin' but they just don’t
Know her like me
She so sweet
Give me everything I need
It’s like I’m living a dream
I was living a dream
Turned to a nightmare
Need more than a pretty face nice hair
Now I’m trapped like a bird darting to a snare
Didn’t know that her nest was my deathbed
Regret how I hated discipline
Steady trippin' and I’m wishin' that I woulda listened
To the men and women giving me that godly wisdom
Now I’m missing all my strength and I’m in a prison

Mama Wisdom tried to tell you
That little girl got you lookin' like the clown you are
Charm is deceitful, beauty is passing, but a woman
Who fears the Lord ain't gone go for no fool like you
Better read that scripture
Ya better hear this Wisdom
Those who hate me love death
And you sho' is in love ain't you?
