I look in the mirror but it ain't my reflection. Always been a dreamer but dreams can be deception. Been living and loving with no method of protection, The day my son was born was the date of inception. I'm walking as much away each day as I am toward, My mind stuck on rewind, my life on fast forward... All the coming and going- when it ends I begin, I've got a lot of heart but my sanity's stretched thin, Like puzzle pieces...or the answer to a riddle; I fight for a lot 'cuz I came from a little... Like wanting to be touched and having someone hit you, Being the hand that feeds, but the hungry dog still bit you. Now I look before I leap or I don't leap at all I've got no safety net, every day's a free fall... Define beauty in someone else's eyes, Everyday I'm older and everybody dies.
Where would I be if I didn't have you, You're the only thing I have... The only love that's real, When you're in my arms it's the only thing I feel. You've got the best of me.
Everything we are is real in being seen, So mean what you say and say what you mean. Look in my eyes through the window is my soul- Plus secrets that can't hurts us, a side you'll never know... I buried all of my pain a long time ago, Left behind all of the things that could've swallowed us whole. Now I have you, and everyday I watch you grow, Lifted a passion out of me that I thought wasn't so. And it's you, it's you that makes me better... There's times I might break but I'll never ever shatter. You being mine could never be wrong, You straightened out my path when I was lost for so long. I used to pray, I just wanted to be saved, I wanted to do right but I didn't know the way... When you're older, I'll tell you all of these things And how you were God's gift to me, the angel to my wings.
