MARTY KING AND SHENIKA SIMS: warm water for weary feet

MARTY KING

when i needed a friend
all skies were black
my head could only bend down
i could never look up
then came you as sunshine
i realized that you were God's Sign
light came into the darkest part of the mine
Friend Till The End and Now I Ascend

SHENIKA SIMS

when i needed to be loved
the devil mainly controlled the weather
every bone on my body felt broken
immovable was i and feeling eternally still
then you came as a true blue sky
everything low all of a sudden was lifted high
the heaviest weight was lifted off of all of me like a much needed sigh
your were my Push when all and everything in life shoved
