Album: One Life to Live
She said she couldn't stay to late she gotta be home by ten she had school the next day, she wasn't the type to play she ain't like them other chicks she ain't known for getting drunk, popin pills, or sucking dick, more like the type to show up to class an hour early never wearing shorts thats showing her ass, gotta hold on her past she can't let go of it, she don't really smile but nobody ever notices, grade A student all her teachers love her she just wishes she felt that same love from her mother but she's stuck in county jail for eighteen months so its just her and pops and everyday he's drunk, they hardly talk so when she gets to the house she goes straight to her room and shuts the lights out, hoping the next day comes sooner than later she can't wait to move out four hundred dollars saved up, she knows she has a long way to go but she keeps her head so high you'll probley never know what she had to go through for so long, (oh) but she never forgets to hold on she said:
If you knew my secret I wonder what you'd say,
I wonder if you'd leave and I wonder if you'd stay,
I wounded if you'd see me in a different way (see me in a different way) I think about it everyday.
She met a kid named joey knew he had a crush always made her laugh and said things to make her blush, but she tried to pay him no attention scared her past would eventually ruin the friendship, cuz its so hard for her to open her feelings he said 'if you don't give me your heart beautiful Ima steal it' so twelve months past and ever since he said that she been in love but every body has their set backs, she wrote on paper sayin "I'm sorry, I just wish you knew your the reason that my heart beats always made me smile ever since the day you saw me, you were my guardian angle when I had nobody, but there's something I haven't told you for six years there was something that I had to go through that shattered my spirit and my dreams I know you can see it my father did these things to me and no one believed it, my mom was never there to see I hope when she reads this she OD's on the very thing that broke us to pieces, you were the only person that I ever loved and it kills me inside to know that I was the one to ruin what we had and I knew this would happen, I just thought me and you would have lasted". Knife to her rise then she dropped to the floor but right be before she cut she heard a knock at the door.
She said: if you knew my secret I wounded what you'd say,
I wonder if you'd leave and I wonder if you'd stay,
I wounder if you'd see me in a different way (see me in a different way) I think about it everyday.
