[verse 1] I was born by the river That my momma cried when my daddy died Maybe that was the reason i didn't get the attention That i was needing to touch cuz I reminded her of him too much Couldn't understand what she felt so i hated her, yeah Til i was old enough to hate myself And i felt like a slave down in South Carolina Cursing the vagina that gave life to me I couldn't see what i had the potential to be Til i got down on my knees and begged God To please take control of my life today
[chorus] Cuz there's no way There's no way,no way,no way I can do it on my own And no matter how my friends try to console They can never never know What i go through So i turn my heart over completely To you,yes Lord,i do...
[verse 2] I was born in a hurry Cuz my momma had to be back to work at 8:30 Maybe that was the reason there was always this feeling That she was rushing herself She didn't even have the time to spend loving herself Let alone,someone else So i hated her,yea Cuz i loved her,yea And i cried,yea Like the Klu Klux Klan at the Million Man March Partially broke my spirit,partially broke my heart I couldn't start to be what i had the potential to be Til i got down on my knees and begged God to please Take control of my life today
