From a seed, to a schoolgirl, to a graduate, a prostitute Became a junkie, a mother of a daughter with gratitude For a mirror that allowed her mother to stare back In a room starving for light to discern the darker shades, black Please step in, inhale, and open your eyes You may turn off the radio wishing you could censor this life And fast-forward the times, won't let them touch you severely With this bliss of ignorance dismissed, this life shall not miss her dearly No, she won't have the luxury... What's whispered in darkness, should be dragged out in white light Covering the wrong should but hinder the right Burn the curtains that s**ed out the last breath Of a girl born so bright she tried to light up the d**h Inevitable like the sunset, covering all she'd possessed Like sunrise, the fall is an all-day process Destined to destroy a seed bound to shine But the seed outshone by the black illuminates this rhyme Written to rip the curtains absorbing the air Blowing out the candle lit to handle despair What's whispered in darkness, should be dragged out in white light Covering the wrong should but hinder the might of right But for every ray of light there's dark space left closed In a battle for a breath, who advocates those opposed? It doesn't make a difference whether you burn out or fade away When the story's wrapped up in plastic, it's time to call it a day
