Paying The Ultimate Price

(Will Ekwue)

A low self esteem man falls for the wrong woman in a desperate attempt to win her over. He is blinded by his affection for her which leads him into a world of hurt.

Chorus 
I feel like I’ve lost my mind 
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine 
Now I’m paying the ultimate price 
For being so stupid & unwise 
 
Verse 1 
Lacking confidence, I was never into my looks 
Cos my ugliness left me completely shook 
Until Mary came around looking for a fall guy 
And asked me a question which I couldn’t answer cos I was so shy 
She smiled as if to re-assure me 
That there was absolutely no need for me to worry 
Like a fool, I believed every word she said 
Not knowing that I was being totally played 
 
Chorus 
I feel like I’ve lost my mind 
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine 
Now I’m paying the ultimate price 
For being so stupid & unwise 
 
Verse 2 
Although I quickly found out she had a checkered history 
As far as I was concerned, we had instant chemistry 
We soon became tight like Bonnie & Clyde 
And I wanted her so badly to be my bride 
Even when she told me she was still married to her husband who was in prison 
I thought nothing of it & was willing to go against my religion 
Though I had no money, there wasn’t anything I wouldn’t do to keep her happy 
She knew this & convinced me to rob a bank which till today, still haunts me 
 
Chorus 
I feel like I’ve lost my mind 
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine 
Now I’m paying the ultimate price 
For being so stupid & unwise
