Not Meant To Be

Salam Alaykum, people! I know it's been a while but I've got another rap coming up. This is one is different, it's not as Islam related as the others, at least not directly, but Inshallah you'll like it anyway. It's called Not Meant to Be.

Those eyes look right into mine
Your smile makes the room proudly shine
Your hair feels way nicer than aloe vera
Cheeks so rosy, no one can ever hate you
I want to tell you it's all OK
That I'm just glad for today
That I'm happy for us to do it this
That nothing will shake this momentary bliss
But that smile of mine is about to die
Looking up and gazing down, I let out a heavy sigh
I'm stuck for words, don't know how I'm gonna say
That I'll be lying if I told you I wanted you this way

I'm not the sort of guy who's just there for fun
Who only wants you for one thing then does the run
I'm for commitment, respect and treating you right
It's all or nothing with me, I know this isn't light
This isn't easy, but easy isn't always the best path to take
Cherishment over fun is my belief, it's what I'll stick to for everyone's sake
I think it's time to say goodbye and see
That maybe we're just not meant to be

I don't want to hurt you, make you sad or cry
But I believe in honesty and integrity, I'm not going to live a lie
Short term has caused so much anger and pain
From fun to flagging, from lust to loathing hate
I won't ask you to change your life, or your way of thinking
Because I know that will just send us sinking
But I need you to accept that this isn't for me
So let's leave with our dignity

I'm not the sort of guy who's just there for fun
Who only wants you for one thing then does the run
I'm for commitment, respect and treating you right
It's all or nothing with me, I know this isn't light
This isn't easy, but easy isn't always the best path to take
Cherishment over fun is my belief, it's what I'll stick to for everyone's sake
I think it's time to say goodbye and see

It's clear that we're nowhere near the same
Got to say that this is fairly tame
While you don't want it, I want to marry
But take care, we've still got our dignity

I'm not the sort of guy who's just there for fun
Who only wants you for one thing then does the run
I'm for commitment, respect and treating you right
It's all or nothing with me, I know this isn't light

Cherishment over fun is my belief, it's what I'll stick to for everyone's sake
I think it's time to say goodbye and see
That maybe we're just not meant to be

Thanks for the comments guys.
Wednesday, I just want you to know that you're not the girl the narrator is talking to. I just want to make that obvious, LOL!
