Theme From 'save The Last Dance' Lyrics - Singles - Fredro Starr

[chorus] 

I see your true color, shining through 

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

I see your true color, shining through 

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

[verse 1] 

Yo, father forgive, we all tryin to survive where we live 

I'd rather feed the homeless eight times than 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 poped 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 

Chorus 

[verse 2] 

Yo,they say this love wasnt meant to be 

2 people from 2 different worlds,we wasnt 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 

Wear my saraguards sad,dats when it rains 

No fridge,kept tha food on tha window payne 

We all breathe tha same air so we all tha same 

Im trapped in this ghetto maze tryna make it out 

If you don't know me don't judge me,wuthcu talkin bout 

Im far dividable of ard of tha broken dreams 

Single mothas y'all 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
