Analysis of Way Too…



Way Too
Wednesday 10:11pm Nov 15, 2023

Way too smart to be actin stupid.
Way too romantic to hate Cupid.
Way too kind to be cruel.
Way too fired up to run out of fuel.
Way too moral to cheat.
Way too flighty when fouled not to beat feet.
Way too honest to tell a lie.
Way too stubborn to give up and die.
Way too real to be fake.
Way too oblivious to realize what all’s at stake.
Way too loyal to throw in the towel.
Way too eager to please, just show me how.
Way too laid back to join in their fight.
Way too focused on my goals to loose sight.
Way too hot not to take this coat off.
Way too hard up to go soft.
Way too upbeat to bring you down.
Way too determined to turn this car around.
Way too much at stake to blow my cool.
Way too handy to be just a tool.
Way too distracted to stay on topic.
Way too dedicated to slip up and drop it.
Way too much faith to loose at hope.
Way too eloquent to be unable to cope.
Way too young to be without doubt.
Way too invested to sit this one out.

Dedicated To: Haters that Doubt
