I know a girl

I know a girl who thinks she’s a hustler

I know a girl who’s A slave to a man who muscles her

I know a girl who’s misguided and directed

I know a girl who’s Proud of her profession

I know a girl who can’t read a word from a book

I know a girl who wouldn’t know an earthquake if it shook

I know a girl who only talks about hair, nails and clothes

I know a girl who’s 16, and sucks her fingers

I know a girl who sleeps with a pimp and strangers

I know a girl who sometimes has a bloody nose

I guess there’s too much on her young mind

To figure out sadly she can’t figure her way out

From underneath the covers she’s in too deep

She gives a lot of shade always ready to give fade

Fact is deep inside she’s terrified and looks afraid

I wish she would cry coz I’m tired of crying for her

I’m tired of crying for them

There are so many in the hands of the enemy

Just Trying to escape poverty

There are so many flowers in the garden

Picked by those who do not appreciate beauty

I know a girl
