discernment_ dont sleep prelude

Sitting here married but broken and lonely
Reminiscing back when I was just single and lonely
Single people let it marinate
Ain't nun wrong if you marry late
Ain't nun wrong if you don't even marry at all
It's cool
Cause what do you do?
What do you do?

What if the person you choose
Look at you and say I do
Then turn around and don't
What do you do?

Hmm?
It's not fair
It's not right
Black Christian with a black wife
Black Christian in the spotlight

But what if she's no Nia Long
And she don't even know how to act right?
She ain't even going into Acts like
She ain't got a phone with the app right

When they talk about happily ever after was it ever intended for us too?
When you marry a man in real life
But don't care bout that man it's a sus move
You don't care when he sad, it's a sus move
You gon tell him whenever you get mad and forget all your manners it's just you
Sus move
You should know

Self control is a fruit of the spirit
If your soul was in tune with the spirit
There's no way that you would leave me hanging
Like I showed up as Judas Iscariot
If you was more like that Ludacris lyric
You would know how to move in the spirit
You would know how to

Wait
Think about somebody that wasn't you
What you did to your ex that wasn't cool

I was naive
I was a fool

Thought I was somebody special
Cause you gave me that confession
Thought I would be the exception
Turns out I was the rule
Really it's cool

But what do you do?
What do you do?

What if the person you choose
Play by some different rules
We started out as a duet
Now it's a group

Sheesh

Sitting here married but broken and lonely
How you get married and don't get along?
How you get mad when you (sheesh)
How you get mad know that you wrong and you switched up the narrative

Back when I met you, you didn't give off toxic
Your posture was different
Benevolent not belligerent
I'm thinking that was deliberate

Wondering where your religion went
So disappointing I didn't get it
That was the point when it really hit
You met this girl on the internet
Truly I'm happy we didn't get

Didn't get
Didn't get
Didn't get
Didn't get

Happy we didn't get children involved
Think being single is horrible?
Wait til you get a divorce

Hold up
Swear my discernment was off
I didn't deserve it at all

Not getting married at all is better than marrying wrong
It's true

What do you do?
