I SAW YOU
I never met you
I saw you
I saw you through
"I've been raped sweared never to tell"
"He didn't do it, don't put him in a cell"
"I got a boo boo, I tripped and fell"
Translucent tear drops over broken toys
You were
Her justice, his bail, band-aids
Their joy
I never met you
I saw you
I saw you through
"I never lived a bright day"
"Got stage fright, forgot what to say"
"Flowers never bloomed in May"
Swollen knuckles in fights
You were
Sunshine, Memories, April showers
Their light
I never met you
I saw you
I saw you through
"It's been a week since I last ate"
"I'm too anxious, I can't wait"
"I don't know how much more I can take"
The ghetto's never ending stories
You were
Nourishment, Patience, Endurance
Their glory
I never met you
I saw you
I saw you through
Gangta girls
Watch as my life unfurls
"Welcome to my world"
What hard lives knew
You are
Her smile, her love, her "I'm gonna be cool"
While you where here
Thanks for letting us share
I know you didn't go anywhere
In her heart and soul...you'll always be there
I never met you
I saw you
I saw you through True
