The Cycle Eric Roberson (Ft. Pharoahe Monch)

Her last boyfriend was a girlfriend
Dude before that sent her through a whirlwind
Hurt her so bad, made her so sick
She was willing to give up on…

Her last boyfriend was a girlfriend
Dude before that sent her through a whirlwind
Hurt her so bad, made her so sick
She was willing to give up on…
The love story she knew so well
It was a tale her mom used to tell
Never saw her mom love a man
Thought it wasn’t part of her plan
But the cycle can't continue (don't give up on love)
The cycle can't continue (don't give up on love)

[Verse 1]
She wants to love, but she doesn't know how
That is what she said
That just blew my head
She told me I should go
Like I did before
But deep in her eyes
I could not ignore
That she saw in me
The king that I could be
And that she was a queen
Just her crown was scratched and dinged
