The thirst is super real. I've been to a couple of showcases
and open mics lately and I swear it keeps getting thirstier out there.
N*ggas go from asking me my name, to if I "have a man". "You married,"
they like to ask. Little do they know, I wouldn't date a man who doesn't
understand that marriage would mean a ring on my finger. If he doesn't
care to look for whether or not the ring is there, I ain't counting on
him to put it there either.Perhaps the reason men end up dating whores
is because they "wanna get to know" anything walking down the street.
I haven't talked about my "love life" for some time, but it seems that's all people care about. I wish people would mind their business. When I talk about how my puppy thinks my bed is hers, people only want to talk about how I'll handle having a man in bed. You see... that's the problem. When you think of me and my bed, all you want to know is who's in it. When I mention the museum, no one cares who went with me.

"I mean, you beautiful. I wanna get to know you," follows me everywhere. "That don't say sh*t about me, hun. Have a nice day," is the only way I can respond. The worst is when they ask for my number to "talk"... aboooout whaaaaat? It's terrible in this industry, too because niggas will pretend to respect you and invite you events and all that, but get you in a private conversation and try their hand. Perhaps we do need stronger gun laws cuz these n*ggas are likely to test and I'm likely to respond. I'm rarely alone with men. There are few I trust private conversations with. I don't trust private conversations period, but when n*ggas lie, things end up worse. Even if nothing happened, guys do go by the guy code... and if they think the homie hit it... he might as well should have. You can ask about me... I truly don't play games, but when I do I play them well. It's funny cuz I'll get on stage and give them a "f*ck niggas" verse, and then they'll try to run game on me --wife me even (in hood terms, no ring). N*ggas just don't listen.
