Not Quite the Way that She Seems

Verse:
She’s not quite the way that she seems
I suppose that’s true of everyone but I never thought these things
‘Til today she beared her soul to me and filled the spaces in between
She’s not quite the way that she seems
Well there’s a world out there I never knew was real
And she lives in this parallel universe where who you are and what you feel
Ain’t enough to bridge the portal blocked by prejudice and fear
There’s a world out there I never knew was real.
Break:
And today she told me that she has a child
A very special little girl
But then she asked me if I thought her wrong to bring
A black child into this world.
Verse:
Cause it’s the world she lives in every day and night
And she can’t just be a person, God didn’t package her in white
And the color that he gave her brings out hatred in some eyes
It the world she lives in every day and night.
Break:
And I see the hurt inside her
But I see the love come shining through
And I have to stop and wonder
Do my eyes judge her, too?
Verse:
She doesn’t want to be the same as me
The person who she is, is just the one she wants to be
And she ain’t asking for no favors, just the freedom to be free
She’s not quite the way that she seems.
