	Story Behind the Song So you want the story huh? Alright. Here goes... I don't even know where to begin. "Broken Promises" was written unexpectedly. It was really lyricised out of no where. I had produced the music for it prior to the song's written format. I do that quite frequently now that I think about it. I showed the semi finished product to Style of After 6 Entertainment. We ended up producing it together. He dropped the sickest beat over it and I just couldn't refuse! Even though I was very, very sick with a horrible cold/flu during the recording session, Style was amazingly supportive and encouraged me to be able to meet the deadline I had set for this release. This song would not be what it is today if it wasn't for Style and After 6 Entertainment. "Broken Promises" was first performed at ROCK THE MIC, an Urban Showcase Concert series which commence quarterly per year.

Chorus Broken, Broken Promises What Would you do If I told you I knew? What Would you do If I told you we’re through Broken, Broken Promises What Would you do If I told you I knew? What Would you do If I told you we’re through Verse #2 So I wait a while Let you get comfortable inside Suttle knock on the door Greeted with “knew you’d come back for more” As I confess all I’ve come to know You start to defend yourself Goes to show “How could you say things with no proof?” What more do I need? My eyes saw the truth Pre Chorus You used the words forever Apart you’d say never, ever Thought Love Between us had grown How foolish I was Believing you’re my own Since it’s come to this You’ve left me no choice But to dismiss Everything I held dear Everything I held near What’s left to say? Chorus Broken, Broken Promises What Would you do If I told you I knew? What Would you do If I told you we’re through Chorus Broken, Broken Promises What Would you do If I told you I knew? What Would you do If I told you we’re through X2 Copyright � 2002 All Rights Reserved
