When You Can't Recall My Name by devimcy: 1:58pm On Jun 17, 2009
I laid the foundation you needed to grow

I established the path you needed to follow

I built the institution where u obtain your school of thought

all your early life crises i stood and fought

I got all my neighbourhood candles burnt

so i can have u smile

but now that you have gotten all you wanted

you cant even recall my name


if your memory is quick

and if you care to think

then you may recall

how i crucified my freedom

to save u from prison

I broke protocols to have u smile

but now that you've gotten what u wanted

you can't even recall my name


I have tried many times to access your number

but my voice like u can't remember

this tends to make me sober

n wants to expose my fragile heart to danger

oh! how i wearied my body in my quest to make you smile

but now that you've gotten what u wanted

you can't even recall my name

I like this alot too. It reminds me alot of what I have felt in the past, and sometimes still feel. How ungrateful some people are. Maybe they dont understand how much we care, or they dont care that we care so much. either way, people you love can be real jerks
