Center of My Universe

When he crept in I was blinded by my own desires
He was my Zeus, I was his Hera
He set my world on fire
I came runnin
Toward him…gunnin
He said all, all the right things
I filled in all the inbetweens
It was so lovely
Till it got…ugly
He was the center of my universe
He made my Earth spin round but in reverse
Searchin for love in his galaxy
Revealed the black hole inside of me
We hung out had fun
Said we would be friends forever
Its funny how forever changes now
To hardly ever
I kept wishin
Searchin but still missin
They were the center of my universe
They made my Earth spin round but in reverse
Searchin for love in their galaxy
Revealed the black hole inside of me (2x)
I finally found myself
Drifting in the Nebula
Can’t go blamin’ no one else
So I’ll co-create a better world
Now I’m the center of my universe
Now my Earth spins round cause I love me first
Searchin for love in my galaxy
Filled the black hole inside of me

Pocket Full of Change

I got a pocket full of change
Better hear these words today
You ain’t got no say
If you ain’t no change (2x)
You say you tried but then you failed
As if success can be derailed
Less you get up off the train
You’re work won’t be in vain
You say you want to change your mind
But then you pour a glass of wine
Don’t you know that compromise
Perpetuates the lies
I got a pocket full of change
Better hear these words today
I got a pocket full of change
Better hear these words today
You ain’t got no say
If you ain’t no change (2x)
You got some people they complain
Ain’t got a vision to they name
They all say they want change
But they’re pockets are empty
They say they want to change the world
But then call up they homegirl
Do you not see in your eyes
The answer to the all the lies
You ain’t got no say
If you ain’t no change (2x)
When it seems like the world is cavin in on you
Just remember, honey that just ain’t true
Your life’s callin for you to be true to you
So when things are the same go get some change and do what you gotta do

See I’ve been waiting so long
Felt like the opportunities gone
Was I failin’ my dreams
Or did they fail me
Sittin’ here cryin’
In this same damn room
So sick of lyin’
That it’ll get better soon
Say why do they do this
Say I’m gonna be alright
You don’t know what I’m goin’ through
Somethin’s gotta change tonight
I want it Now…..I want it Now
You see I trusted someone
Put my heart on the line
When I needed a friend
He said I’d be his wife
Now I’m sittin’ here waiting
Knowin’ you’ll never come through
I’m over debatin’
I’m movin’ on from you
I want it Now…I want it Now
I’ll stop right here cause I been around
Like I’m in court all day tryin’ to settle out
I put checks in ya hand
Likes on ya gram
All just to share my life with a man
Forgot myself tryin to settle down
I’m top shelf actin like the bottom brown…
I don’t blame you for game you spit,
the sneakin shit or the chicks you wit
I knew better…but I didn’t do better
I shoulda wrote dat ass a “Dear Dude” letter
Everybody said take your time
Stay on the grind with your dreams in mind
But every detour when I traveled it
Revealed who I am on some savageness
I’m a pro like 300 averages
I ravish this cause I’m passionate….I’m
But I didn’t, I want stray
Now I’m clockin in every single day.
But where dream at
Walk into it because love in blind
But now I see clearer
They was sayin look in the mirror
Cause I’m sick and tired of bein sick and tired
Cause sick and tired don’t work
No more waitin’ round bein’ broken down
I choose to love me first
No broken promises… cause my promise is
That I’ma handle my s***
So when it goes around it comes around
I’ll be ready for it
I want it Now
So I gotta do this
So everything”ll be alright
Can’t believe what I’m goin’ through
But somethin’s gonna change tonight
I want it Now…..I want it Now
