"Rashida's Tale"

[Interlude: Rashida Northington]
So I met this girl when I was twenty years old
And it was an instant connection between us two
She was very affectionate, loving, kind, caring
Everything that you could dream of
And we ended up moving in together
She proposed to me, gave me a ring
She introduced me to her best friend
We went out together one night and we ended up sleeping together
And it crushed her
And when it hurt her, it hurt me
She told me it was over, she asked for her ring back
I think I had a nervous breakdown, child, I was crying
And I never felt that type of pain before
Because it was always me being the one that was cheated on
And in turn, I caused that same type of pain
To someone that I was madly in love with
Having lost her at that time, it felt like a death to me
I can't give you an explanation as to why I did it
'Cause I, I really don't know
But I fucked up, I fucked that up
And I can admit that
