a part of me there is and i am looking into a mirror tryin to never collapse for i am still young

a part of me is so weak i dont know how to hold it
a part of me is so strong I am amazed by it
a part of me is so happy i am happy to hear it
a part of me is so sad i cannot bare to feel it

there is a girl inside me who i understand
there is a woman inside me growing without my command
there is a love deep in me tht i want to show
there is an anger in my centre that i want to throw

I am a faithful woman yet i am not faithful enough
I am a wonderful woman but not white enough
I am an embarrased woman and been rejected enough
I am a strange woman i never know enough


look into the mirror and see the blackness
look into the mirror and see the whiteness fade
look into the mirror and see the story that was made
look into the mirror and see the real story , the one behind bars

try and expand your heart like a new machine
try and open your heart and look inside
try and repair your heart in  a fantastic surge of saving
try and clean your heart and remove the black spot


let me never collapse except on your prayers
let me never collapse except on your shades
let me never collapse except in fasting
let me never collapse let me never be erased

for i am still young but feeling old
for i have done wrong and been so cold
for i have forgotten and acted so bold
for i have not done what i have been told
