Ain’t none of my business what folks whisper about me.
Sometimes, the hardest thing is to hold on.
Sometimes the truth does not set you free.
The past is a heavy thing.
Fear can make a person blind.
The secrets we keep have a way of clawing their way to the surface.
The world ain’t kind to women.
Sometimes, a dream ain’t nothing but a lie you tell yourself.
There’s a darkness in folks, a thing that can be stirred.
The night holds more secrets than a body can bear.
Not all love is kind.
Sometimes you got to look back to see what’s coming.
