    Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I just wanted to share a song that really sums up how I feel right now:

    Yep, good one.  We have done this before, sharing song lyrics that sum up our views on the dubbie experiance.


    as a born in who felt over worked and unappreciated by a greedy whorish organization, this song sums up my exit in a meaningful way:


     don't think she understands the sacrifices that I made
    Maybe if this b** had acted right, I would've stayed
    But I've already wasted over half of my life
    I would've laid down and died for you, I no longer cry for you

    No more pain, b**, you took me for granted
    Took my heart and ran it straight into the planet
    Into the dirt, I can no longer stand it
    Now my respect I demand it
    I'ma take control of this relationship, command it
    And I'ma be the boss of you now, goddammit

    And what I mean is that I will no longer let you control me
    So you better hear me out, this much you owe me
    I gave up my life for you, totally devoted to you, while I stayed
    Faithful all the way, this is how I get repaid?

    Look at how I dress, baggy sweats, go to work a mess
    Always in a rush to get back to you, I ain't heard you yet
    Not even once say you appreciate me, I deserve respect
    I've done my best to give you nothing less than perfectness

    And I know that if I end this I'll no longer have nothing left
    But you keep treating me like a staircase, it's time to step
    And I won't be coming back so don't hold your breath
    You know what you've done, no need to go in depth
    I told you, you'd be sorry if I left, I'd left while you wept

    How's it feel now? Yeah, funny ain't it, you neglected me
    Did me a favor although my spirit free you've said
    But a special place for you in my heart I have kept
    It's unfortunate but it's too late


    I feel like when I bend over backwards for you, all you do is laugh
    'Cause that ain't good enough, you expect me to fold myself in half
    'Til I snap, don't think I'm loyal, all I do is rap
    I cannot moonlight on the side, I have no life outside of that

    Don't I give you enough of my time, you don't think so, do you?
    Jealous when I spend time with the girls
    Why I'm married to you still, man, I don't know
    But tonight I'm serving you with papers, I'm divorcing you
    Go marry someone else and make 'em famous

    And take away their freedom like you did to me
    Treat 'em like you don't need 'em and they ain't worthy of you
    Feed 'em the same stuff
     you made me eat

    I'm moving on forget you, oh, now I'm special
    I aint feel special when I was with you

    All I ever felt was this, helplessness
    Imprisoned by a selfish b***, chew me up and spit me out
    I fell for this so many times, it's ridiculous
    And still I stick with this, I'm sick of this
    But in my sickness and addiction, you're addictive as they get

    Evil as they come, vindictive as they make 'em
    My friends keep asking me why I can't just walk away from
    I'm addicted to the pain, the stress, the drama
    I'm drawn in, so I guess, I'ma mess, cursed and blessed
    But this time I'ma ain't changing my mind, I'm climbing out this abyss

    You screaming as I walk out that I'll be missed
    But when you spoke of people who meant the most to you
    You left me off your list
    forget you hip hop, I'm leaving you
    My life sentence is served, b***

    Yeah that's a good one too Morpheus. Some choice language but Not Afraid by the same guy is also rather apt. Especially this chorus:

    And I just can't keep living this way
    So starting today, I'm breaking out of this cage
    I'm standing up, I'ma face my demons
    I'm manning up, I'ma hold my ground
    I've had enough, now I'm so fed up
    Time to put my life back together right now!
