Song by Fredro Starr<br /><br>

[CHORUS]<br>

I see your true color, shinin through<br>

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

I see your true color, shinin through<br>

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

<br>

[VERSE 1]<br>

Yo, father forgive, we all tryin to survive where we live<br>

I'd rather feed the homeless eight times than talk to da kids<br>

Show 'em life ain't no walk on the bridge<br>

Damn as hard as it is, when I be dreamin I be talkin to B.I.G<br>

In my hood it ain't no yellow brick road, we hear the shots echo<br>

Sneakers hangin from a telephone pole<br>

In my ghetto aint no rainbow wit pots a gold<br>

but tha was love from tha family when tymes are cold<br>

I seen n analyzed tha world from my project roof<br>

An' seen the hope in tha eyes of a troubled youth<br>

A good kid, I kept this burna in dis motha goose<br>

A motherless child,lost in these streets loose<br>

in the waterworlds away these are rainy days<br>

My man got poped at an early age<br>

These cowards run n say he flipped into his early grave<br>

They say the good die young, we're headed for dem early gates<br>

<br>

[CHORUS]<br>

<br>

[VERSE 2]<br>

yo,they say this love wasnt meant to be<br>

2 people from 2 different worlds,we wasnt meant to be<br>

it musta been fate you were sent to me<br>

we'll make it through these hard tymes,eventually<br>

tha standard fight,walk by faith n not by sight<br>

we're all tha same color when you turn off tha lights<br>

i take tha sunshine with tha pain<br>

wear my Saraguards sad,dats when it rains<br>

no fridge,kept tha food on tha window payne<br>

we all breathe tha same air so we all tha same<br>

im trapped in this ghetto maze tryna make it out<br>

if you dont know me dont judge me,wuthcu talkin bout<br>

im far dividable of ard of tha broken dreams<br>

single mothas yall my heroes,yall my queens<br>

to get my moms out tha hood,thats my hope n dreams<br>

to raise my son to be a soldier by any means<br>

<br>

[CHORUS TO FADE]<br>

<br>
