Who taught you to breathe, then took away your speech / Made you feel so loved, then shook your hand with gloves? / You watched her pass away, the words she said weren’t faint / Closed our eyes for a while, but I still see Sandra’s smile

Can you see it in my face? / Had enough for today / It’s hard for me to stay in place unless I force myself awake

Look, an hour ago, I read Sybrina’s quote / I mean, why should she forgive? / D’we lose you if, we don’t?

Can you see it in my face? / Had enough for today / It’s hard for me to stay in place unless I force myself awake…
