Padre Ichiro

I thought I had the one, the perfect girl for me.
Turns out I was only her number two.
Not knowing what to do, what to say or who would help me through
I went down to talk to the man on the corner stoop.
I said; «Do you have any advice for me?»
Said; «Son, don’t fight another’s reality,
Use your intuition to assess each situation
Sometime you should stay, sometimes you should run.»
When I came home, she’s all gone.
Not interested in conversation
Let alone exploring emotion
Padre Ichiro told me something my eyes now start to see;
«She loves that marijuana more than she loves me.»
I went down to the corner just to see,
if the Padre had any more guidance for me
But when I got there all he did was give a knowing glare
and I knew what I had to do, it was clear.
When I came home I stayed strong
Didn’t let her get me to blaze or bone
I said; «get balanced or get gone.»
Padre Ichiro told me something my eyes now start to see;
«She loves that marijuana more than she loves me.»
She loves that marijuana more than she loves me.
She won’t even share her good stuff with me.
So of course she loves it more than being free.
