Edit By: 216.73.217.42

[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

[chorus]
