I had to get played before I could learn the game
Since nice guys always get betrayed it's a damn shame
Today my heart don't beat the same like it once did before
And now I just can't let my guard down anymore
They say there's plenty of fish in the sea but I'm exploring the land
Because dealing with deep waters will only get you hurt in the end
I realized that you can't really depend on no one but God
Nine times out of ten my closet friends turn out to be frauds
I know the odds have been against me but I ain't trying to get even
I'm just gonna let go and let God
Because he's who I believe in
To live and learn
I'm Tony the Poet
