Dawn finally gives in to the sexual advances
Son now tired of seein' his poor mother sufferin'
(All alone, no one to be with)
Yet Dawn did it though her youth went to waste
(All alone, no one to be with)
All alone, no one to be with you
Life without love
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Since he made her laugh and all the other girls was sweatin'
Verse two of Dawn's life, the second segment
Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'
Consequences of being used as an object
Continue with her life without love
Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'
It was hell finishin' school and working part-time
Poor Dawn couldn't sleep, laid awake
Then things started to move without cause
(All alone, no one to be with)
As a youth, each Sunday, Dawn went to church
This is a special remix
(All alone, no one to be with)
And as soon as she could get off the assistance, she did
Life without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
Not ready for a child and plus her mother's gonna break
(All alone, no one to be with)
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Life without love
Although it was a mad high cost for her
(No one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
While Dawn worked two jobs tryin' to meet ends
(All alone, no one to be with)
Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him
Now feeling alone and betrayed by her lover
Never no good news, just more strife
She decides to have the child because the doesn't want to sin
Without love
Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him
'Cuz after the thrill was gone, so was the lust for her
Love
Little help from the government, she got her own place
Guess who's in the mix, and being legal age
Life without love
And explain how important education is
No one to be with you
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
In church though time's runnin' thin
(All alone, no one to be with)
Life without love
Hard for an independent
Still she finds strength to continue with her life without
Life without love
Under pressure while exchangin' glances
(All alone, no one to be with)
Hard for an independent
(All alone, no one to be with)
(No one to be with)
Her son was busy cuttin' school and hangin' with his friends
And really being pure, now she thought she'd die without
Under stress, she takes two bufferin'
Hard for an independent woman and a kid
Love
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without
(All alone, no one to be with)
Props to the girl although it hit hard times
(All alone, no one to be with)
Once dreamed of actually wearing white at her wedding
Dawn barely havin' enough time to live her own life
Love
(All alone, no one to be with)
Hard for an independent
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without
And a couple o'months later kid's pushin' for the drawers
Without love
As she doesn't know how she's gonna bring up the subject
(All alone, no one to be with)
Eventually he left her for another
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone, no one to be with)
Without love
(All alone, no one to be with)
So when she got words she tried to slap out the taste in his mouth
Paid her respects and not to mention was a virgin
What could be worse than to now find out you're pregnant?
Kid pushed up, Dawn lettin'
All alone, no one to be with you
(All alone, no one to be with)
(All alone)
Starts to sell drugs though the cops did a raid
To inform her that her son is gonna' need a lawyer
Could do time, please call her employer
She cried for no longer knew which way she headed
