She's Alive - OutKast

A boy

To raise

At a Young age

No help

From him

But she’s alive

To be Made strong

But all

Alone

Must be A pain

But she’s alive

The year was 1975

That night crickets cried

They knew what was going down

Three girls travel a long country road

And one said she thinks it’s time

This baby wants to come right now

A boy

To raise

At a Young age

No help

From him

But she’s alive

To be Made strong

But all

Alone

Must be A pain

But she’s alive

I was scufflin’going to school

I was scufflin’working at night

And you know what

I truly believe

And that’s why I tell a lot of parents

Single parents, don’t tell me what God can’t do.

I made sure you had

I never felt like you should be deprived of anything

If a man didn’t want to take care of his child

You move on And that’s what I did

I moved on A boy

To raise

At a Young age

No help

From him

But she’s alive

To be Made strong

But all

Alone

Must be A pain

But she’s alive

A boy

To raise

At… at a Young age

No help

From him

But she’s alive

He always wanted to be a father

But he never took care of you

He ain’t have no money

He ain’t have nothin'

How can you care about somebody

And you never give the welfare of them

A boy

To raise

At a Young age

No help

From him

But she’s alive

To be Made strong

But all

Alone

Must be A drag

But she’s alive

A boy

To raise

At a Young age…

No help

From him

But she’s alive

To be Made strong

But all

Alone

Must…

and I knew I had to go that road by myself

She’s alive
