STILL PROCESSING written by Sheldon Manoo (1995)



Something happened some years ago, oh no
Something I shouldn’t have let happen to me
Andrea you and I know it wasn’t right
Sins of the flesh we committed that damned night
You were drunk and easy but I was scared
Then they pushed us to do the things I dared
On the beach waters then on the bed
Those were mistakes that you and I shared
And yes it’s true that I regret it
Don’t matter what they say I think about it
I wish it could disappear from my background just for my sake
Cause it wasn’t magic, it wasn’t love, we had make
You were young and wild and careless and free and reckless
And I, I was still processing!

Still working to be the person that I am today
For the rest of the world I got a lot to say
Some people will want to throw what happened between us back into my face
And try to put me into a negative space
But I hope you see the Lord has blessed me and you could be forgiven in the life with God
Choose one guy forever and go forward
Protect your children; show them all the good life has to offer
I know you can make a wonderful mother
Sometimes I wondered how it could be with you as my girl and all
To always be hearing your voice call
Maybe we could have been together today but it’s all gone
I hope you’re having a life with so much fun
What happened between us I tried to forget it, regret it, stop myself from thinking ‘bout it
Cause in all honesty it wasn’t love so it wasn’t good for me, maybe it wasn’t for you too, but probably you don’t know how you felt then
Cause Andrea you were young, reckless and your hormones were acting up
And I, I was still processing to be a good man!
