Who's Real & Who's Fake

While young we make many mistakes Growing up learning who’s real & who’s fake Thinking we have friends in all the right places They looking at us wit unknown screw faces I remember we were cool, wit your crossed shoe laces The friendship was a virgin & yea you raped it You thought it was game & you tried to play it You looking in my eyes & what you see is hatred I been holding it within & I can’t take it I thought you admit that you were wrong - I can’t believe that I waited I can say this to you now, because my feelings have faded Now I’m starrin in ya face, can you see that I made it People use excuses to cover behavior What they don’t see, is that I worship a Savior He’s holdin me in his arms & I feel safe here Trust in him I promise you will have no fear. This is one relationship when your feel secure The love is so great he’ll have you yearnin for more. He’ll give you his riches & you won’t feel poor Bend those knees & drop down to da floor Say Jesus, for me what do you store I’m here cryin out, can you help me Lord?? 10/27/05 Sheryl Bates
