Baby

He called me "Baby" again
This man I no longer even consider a friend
He might as well have said mam or miss
Some generic term for a female or bitch

Any man that calls me baby, or honey, or boo
Can keep rolling past
If you can't say my name
I'll impolitely take a pass

Because it means there are others
He calls by the same
Wouldn't want the ladies to get mixed up
That would just be a damn shame

I found what I needed
Pulled it from my own guts
I want to pulverize his memory
Grind it into dust

When the pressure was on
Diamonds he did not make
He was just crapping coal
To start a fire in my wake

I write because no one listens
Maybe they'll read instead
If it serves no other purpose
At least it gets out of my head
