NOTHING PERSONAL

NOTHING PERSONAL

If you call out my name 
And I look the other way 
It's nothing personal 
I don't have a damn thing to say
I'm enjoying my day 

If you noticed I am not answering 
Or returning your calls 
It's nothing personal 
I'm just busy loving on those 
That shows me love

If you walk a mile and knock on my door 
Trying to borrow my ride
Like you've done so many times before 
And you noticed me 
Closing my windows and bolting my doors 

It's nothing personal 
Just beware of my unchained pit bull 

Just think of all I've done for you
The many times I've carried you
Then think of what you have done for me 
Absolutely nothing! In our friendships history 

You've squandered every chance 
Of being a friend 
And every rainbow has its end
No longer will I pretend 
It's nothing personal 
Because it is.

Wilford Barker.
