Shining Through (Theme From Save The Last Dance) (Remix)

Sunshine-]

I see your true colors, shinin through

I see your true colors, an' that's why I love you

I see your true colors, shinin through

I see your true colors, an' that's why I love you

Yo, father forgive, we all try'na survive where we live

I'd rather feed the homeless, take time an' talk to da kids

Show 'em life ain't no walk on the bridge

Damn as hard as it is, when I be dreamin I be talkin to B.I.G

In my hood it ain't no yellow brick road, we hear the shots echo

Sneakers hangin from a telephone pole

In my ghetto ain't no rainbow wit pots a gold

But tha was love from tha family when tymes are cold

I seen n analyzed tha world from my project roof

An' seen the hope in tha eyes of a troubled youth

A good kid, I kept this burna in dis motha goose

A motherless child, lost in these streets loose

In the waterworlds away these are rainy days

My man got popped at an early age

These cowards run n say he flipped into his early grave

They say the good die young, we're headed for dem early gates

Yo, they say this love wasn't meant to be

2 people from 2 different worlds, we wasn't meant to be

It musta been fate you were sent to me

We'll make it through these hard tymes, eventually

Tha standard fight, walk by faith n not by sight

We're all tha same color when you turn off tha lights

I take tha sunshine with tha pain

Grandma said when God sad, dats when it rains

No fridge, kept tha food on tha window pane

We all breathe tha same air so we all tha same

Im trapped in this ghetto maze tryna make it out

If you dont know me dont judge me, wuthcu talkin bout

Im far dividable of ard of tha broken dreams

Single mothas yall my heroes, yall my queens

To get my moms out tha hood, thats my hope n dreams

To raise my son to be a soldier by any means
