Shining Through (Theme From Save The Last Dance) - Remix

Sunshine-]
 I see your true colors, shinin through
 I see your true colors, an' that's why I love you
 I see your true colors, shinin through
 I see your true colors, an' that's why I love you
 Yo, father forgive, we all try'na survive where we live
 I'd rather feed the homeless, take time an' 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 popped 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
 Yo, they say this love wasn't meant to be
 2 people from 2 different worlds, we wasn't 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
 Grandma said when God sad, dats when it rains
 No fridge, kept tha food on tha window pane
 We all breathe tha same air so we all tha same
 Im trapped in this ghetto maze tryna make it out
 If you dont know me dont judge me, wuthcu talkin bout
 Im far dividable of ard of tha broken dreams
 Single mothas yall 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
 to Fade
