Call me oversensitive

Call me oversensitive
Loyal to my beliefs
Is how I chose to live
The ultimate insult 
I wasn't worth seeking out
As for forgiveness, forget this
my phone didn't ring for two years 
broken sleep in-between shedding a billion years
Tears because I didn't know where my infant son was for over a year. 
All thanks to lies on a piece of paper
Short yet constant conversation 
means everything when we're truly hurtin'
We're in the same blood tree
That means we're related without any relation 
time invested ways heavy with me
When I make a decision to include you 
in the few who have my loyalty eternally 
Tighten up who I keep in my alliance
My distance may come across as ignorance
It's directly connected to your silence
What about me? Do I have the wrong last name?
the word love has become a game
I'll stop bitchin', are you still readin' 
If you're understanding, you're listening
Do unto others as you'd have done unto you
Known worldwide as the golden rule
Do what you say you're going to do
I want my word to carry heavy weight
Call me oversensitive
Loyal to my beliefs
Is how I chose to live

Fine flow of raw emotion balanced against contemplation

Loyalty isn't appreciated the way it used to be, I'll concurr. It desperately needs all the torch bearers it can have. Carry on, sir, carry on.
