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