this aint gonna work

by Antwan Fields - Aries

we can't even be cordial
we are like warring countries, over some bullshit
and this isn't gonna work because forget cordial,you and me?
we can't have a conversation without a profanity or three
and i can see we're jockeying, we're competing, its tiring
and i won't have a hard time with your immediate firing
i can see that we want each other but won't admit it, can't
and what we did? i'll grant you that
kissing in the storeroom, it was a one-time thing
till i realize that you have me in a chicken wing
i swan-dive into a kiss, our lips raking
i knew i couldn't have you, my heart was breaking
so we had to fire on each other, i felt an undying hatred 
and i want you still 
but all good things must come to an end, so kill
a working and loving relationship don't mix, as i lurk 
i just know this here isn't gonna work.
