Pass over chase a brother down and I fear that what I saying
To show me that everything is black because my eyes were closed
So it was only right that when you asked for this story
You give me the word and only ask that I interpret
And the strain that I feel when I'm here is gone
I come to you because it's you who knows
It's a wonderful feeling to get away from the pain
That you wanted me to see so I could be what you wanted me to be
Only asking that I keep the focus in between the chapters
And I remember once you held me close but I slid
All I saw was black and all I felt was rain
Plenty of times you sent help my way but I hid
Won't be heard until I'm gone
Our dogs being brothers and sisters in the hood
And up under the ceiling I get away from the rain
But it's all good, 'cause I really didn't expect to live long
Matter of fact, I know, I have seen it I can feel the change
Lord why is it that I go through so much pain?
And I think I've seen it 'cuz I don't feel the same
And it's strange almost got me beating down your door
You gave me the light and let me bask in your glory
And I almost lost faith in you when you took my man Monty
I put together to do our dogs some good
And just like the devil who wants me to lie till I die
There was something that I just had to see
You know, I ain't perfect but you'd like me to try
You called me a sheep and lead me to green pastures
And give me the eyes that I may recognize the serpent
So if it takes for me to suffer for me brother to see the light
But I have never known love like this before
I know real so I wipe away the tears it's on
