Eyes Are the Soul |
He knows he’s leaving, not much time left |
Holding on to his very last breath |
I saw him last week, nervous and uptight |
Losing sleep, stays up all night |
Wishin he woulda used his mind and not rushed |
To push in the bush but took his time |
To get to know the girl he slapped skins with |
Shared needles with |
Wish he could go back, change the direction |
But now he’s got the infection |
I spoke to him, gave him inspired words |
I’m sure he’s heard |
Live by the sword, die by the sword |
What’s left, pray to the oh Lord |
You can deny but the truth will unfold |
Because the eyes are the soul |
Eyes are the soul. |
Eyes are the soul. |
I look into his eyes, but he’s so high |
From the crack, he thinks that he can fly |
He has problems he doesn’t like solving |
Takes one hit, and thinks the world stops revolving |
19, his eyes full of tears |
He hasn’t smiled at least for a year |
His mom is gone cause he was high one night |
Robbed and killed her, because of the crack pipe |
He’s wanted by the law |
Because he’s robbed at least three grocery stores |
He’s lost, all control |
Take a look, eyes are the soul |
Eyes are the soul. |
Eyes are the soul. |
Eyes are the soul. |
I look into her eyes, she’s so young |
But I know, where she’s comin from |
I’ve watched her grow, little girl down the street |
White shirts and skirts with pleats |
She cried, fear in her voice |
Not knowing, she had a choice |
Oh so sad, oh so lonely |
If she knew that she’s not the only |
One in school that didn’t use the caution |
Facin, raisin a baby or abortion |
Her mother said she had to leave |
Who wants to be where a baby is not received |
No ultimatum, she’s goin to the G.Y.N |
To put it to an end |
She’s learned a lesson I suppose |
I can tell, eyes are the soul |
Eyes are the soul. |
Eyes are the soul. |
Eyes are the soul. |
