Lyrics

[Based on "those who have eyes to see will see" by willie christopher tucker]

Eight months pregnant
Homeless crack addict
From the south side of town
Angel all alone

Can't decide
If to confide

Caught in a lifestyle
For which she knows no relief
Day after day
Night after night
Utterly impoverished
Surrounded by filth
Depressed
And wishing she were dead

Low self- esteem
Only seventeen

Been molested
Been raped
Been beaten to the ground
Been molested
Been raped
By the men that promised
To keep her safe and sound

Low self- esteem
Only seventeen

Forced to sell her body
And tormented soul -
Depressed
And wishing she were dead

Talking to her unborn child -
No one else listens to what she says
"How long god must I suffer this way
Please don't force me to endure another day"

Angel is pregnant -
Baby, one month due
I remember her say -
Those who have eyes to see
Will see

In what she said
I surmised
That look on her face -
With tears in her eyes

To escape her pain
She decides life ain't worth livin'
Angel walks into the path
Of the marta train
The nine forty- five
