Lyrics She's Me - Faith Evans, Monifah

She's Me

Everybody told 'er
Be careful of the strangers
But no one ever said the danger’s here at home
Nobody will believe 'er
That’s what he always told 'er
That’s why she pulls away
When anybody holds her
She feels so alone
Without a place to call home
And she smiles, pretends that it’s okay
But she’s disseized her stars
They never fade away
And she laughs to mask away the pain
Something that they said
She’d never be the same
She’s your mother, she’s your sister
She’s your lover, she’s your friend
Looking to arise once again
She’s me, she’s me
She was just a nice girl (she was just a nice girl)
Or maybe just a shy girl
She never even dreamed that you would notice her (notice her)
He was mr.
popular (popular)
His attention was an honor
But when he got her alone
He turned into a monster
Nobody knows
She thought she couldn’t say no
And she smiles, pretends that it’s okay
But she’s disseized her stars
They never fade away
And she laughs to mask away the pain
Something that they said
She’d never be the same
She’s your mother, she’s your sister
She’s your lover, she’s your friend
Looking to arise once again
She’s me, she’s me.
Nobody knows
She thought she couldn’t say no
And she smiles, pretends that it’s okay
But she’s disseized her stars
They never fade away
And she laughs to mask away the pain
Something that they said
She’d never be the same
She’s your mother, she’s your sister
She’s your lover, she’s your friend
Looking to arise once again
She’s me, she’s me
