Letter To Ur N(ex)t – Mahalia

Let me introduce myself properly
Though it’s clear
You already heard about me
When he told you ’bout the breakup
Did he blame me? Huh
Did he tell you I was crazy?
But did he tell you all the times
That he broke my heart
And broke my mind?

No, I bet he didn’t
I bet he told you that he isn’t a bad guy
Now, truth is
He never started out like that
He was kind and attentive, and just my man
Then one day
He said he’d be right back

And then he never came back around
And he never told me why
Never gave an explanation
Not a text, not a “goodbye”
Not a “sorry”, not a “love you”
Not anything
So respectfully

I don’t owe you anything but
Woman to woman
You gotta run, baby
Just like I wouldn’t
You gotta go, baby
Just like I couldn’t
Before you’re caught in this drama, drama, drama, drama

I don’t wanna sound like a b*tch
No, I don’t wanna
But if you carry on like this
You gon’ get your karma
Take it from a girl
Who’s already been through the trauma
