She - Fatai

I wake up in my bed

And she lies down in the dirt

I walk to the kitchen to grab a glass of water

She cries out in thirst

I hop in the shower to clean off last nights event

Struggling to throw a brand on my back

Yet she walks a mile bare foot with no warm clothes

And covered in sand

She’s my reflection in the mirror on the other side of the planet

Same age, same height, same look, same size

But she’s happier than me

She’s got nothing left no food, no clothes, no family to run home to

Same age, same height, same look, same size

Yet she’s satisfied in Him

Oh, I want to be like her when I grow up

Yes, I want to be like her when I grow up

Everyday I walk on eggshells worried about tomorrow

And she is laughing out living life in love just how its supposed to be

Every time I see her face on the silver screen

She reminds me to be grateful

Cause there will always be that someone out there

Who is doing it harder

She’s my reflection in the mirror on the other side of the planet

Same age, same height, same look, same size

But she’s happier than me

She’s got nothing left no food, no clothes, no family to run home to

Same age, same height, same look, same size

Yet she’s satisfied in Him

Oh, I want to be like her when I grow up

Yes, I want to be like her when I grow up

Rich in love, rich in joy, rich in something beyond this earth

Rich in peace, rich in laughter, rich in somethign beyone this earth

Rich in love
