Papers - Is this a new Divorce anthem?

[Wendy]

Just plaid close attention to Usher's penned lyrics to his son "Papers". Quite revealing in a sense. Im have some fighting words ina di song dowe Could this be the new divorce anthem of the decade?

---------------------------------------------------
Vrs 1:
I can't, get to work on time, can't believe the words to her I just said
But who the hell argue n fight like dogs at 6 in the morning?(in the mornin)
I know it's gonna' be some more sh** tonight mm oooh
Our pastor's callin, tellin me I done went too far in
I'm seen around town and my friends can't recognize me,
'Cuz I took a chance on love(love), it's like(like), I'm dyin(ooh dyin)

Chrs:
For you I gave my heart and turned my back against the world
'Cause you were my girl, girl, girl
<span style="font-weight: bold">I done damn near lost my mama</span>, I done been through so much drama
I done turned into the man that I never thought I'd be.

I'm ready to sign them papers, papers, papers
I done took all I can take but u leave me no options girl
I can't deny how much I love you, I done gave up errthing I had to
As hard as it is I'm affraid I gotta say
I'm ready to sign them papers, papers, papers
I done took all I can take but u leave me no options girl

Ooh! OoOOooh! Ooh! Papers
Ooh! OoOOooh! Ooh! Papers

Vrs 2:
I'm losin my mind, can't figure out who's wrong or right
I know it's you I love, but then I also know it's you I don't like
<span style="color: #CC0000">You claim you hate who I was, but that's the reason you here now
You think I don't know what's up, but sweetheart that's what ruined us</span>
I ain't afraid to say I got needs
<span style="color: #CC0000">But the only time you here for me is when the bottles poppin' and everything is sweet
But I I'm tired of sleeping in the other room spending them long nights</span>
Trying to figure out what in the hell in my heart I ain't do right. (Oooh for u)

Ready Ready Ready Ready
All my fellas up in here, if u had enough and u're ready to sign say
Ready Ready Ready Ready(I'm ready, yes I am)
All my ladies if u sick and tired, and u're, ready to sign, say
Ready Ready Ready Ready(ooh)
I can't keep livin this life, I'm feena leave it for the last time I'm
Ready Ready Ready Ready

mi haffi stap wat mi was doing fi come een come chime eeen pan dis. first of all this song is dumb

and second of all other than the fact that Kimiesha or wateva di fuss man/wife did name have wan bag a pickney there is no diff between her and the ol tiyad wash up sinting him tek up now and he's right back where he started cuz he and his momma on the outs over this one too.

Hmmmmmm sweetie if you have two relationship and they end the same way or they ahve the same pattern then its you.

I hear ppl singing and praising even becoming catatonic when they ehar this song and I'm like but you can't seek vindication because just lke this artist you have some serious psychological problems.

If this song promoted healing and he had a diff image then yeah I wd be all like &quot;go for it&quot; but it is soooo dysfunctional.

Can we please have a song that says divorce sign, get in the gym get in shape get you a good man/woman who si a far cry from the baggage you are leaving behind or how about one that says it's your time now, SHINE!!!! DO YOU!!!!

Can we please have one that asks individuals to take some time out analyze where they went wrong be honest with themselves and heal before entering into another unhealthy relationship and please do not bring forth any more children as a result of these unhealthy unions.

And further more I think it is childish fi put dem biznizz out there.

It reminds mi of ENM.. every blastid woman im sleep wid im mek a whole albulm affa di details. But dem a mek money affa it so dat naah goh stop.

no sah i'm just disappointed in him i thought he had a lil class but mi learn as JayZ seh yuh can pay fi school but yuh cyaan buy class.

it was a low blow and the song is void anyhow because him neva learn him and him madda on di outs again because him tek up wan wash up woman she have a likkle more financially dan tameka but even wid tameka drama this woman is way worse
