Zoom: Fantasy World Since I was a Girl

Zoom…I lived in a fantasy world since I was a girl

         

          I dreamt of an African warrior, who’d take away the pain,

                   No need to take away the rain,

                             But please no fingers to blame

A fantasy world

                   Since I was a girl

I only knew love through a movie,

          Growing up listening to songs like, “Do me...baby”,

                   And naw everything ain’t gravy

No more searching I’m done for awhile,

          We gon’ do things up Ms. Blyss style

A fantasy world

                   Since I was a girl

I told him I held out for 4 looong years

          So I know I’m not a hoe,

But my first mistake was letting him through the front door

He was like a BreaTH of fresh air

          A sun ray,

In my world full of gray,

          But hey what can I say,

                   It’s a new day

A fantasy world

                   Since I was a girl

Oh now you don’t know my name

          Is it a game?

Now you got me thinking and I’m not sure I feel the same

I’m a real woman, sometimes feisty

          Sometimes shy,

Don’t ask why,

          Just know I ain’t down with a lie,

                   So I sigh,

                             And try not to cry

Cause I’ve lived in a fantasy world since I was a girl

I just want to be held and hugged

          And showed some love,

And whoever goes first be waiting at the cloudy stairs above

Real love, real love, Aphrodite’s son can you hear my name

                   Ladi Luv!!!

                             Better known as Ms. Blyss

But I guess my premonition missed

I’ll be putting back on my shoes.

          And I’ma be cool,

Don’t want to be a link on a chain called a fool.

A fantasy world since I was a girl

I want to wake up and look into loves eyes

          With no goodbyes

                   And no dry hi’s

A fantasy world since I was a girl

          A fantasy world since I was a girl

                   A fantasy world since I was a girl
