Lyric She s Alive
[Baby crying:] Wanh wanh wanh
[Andre 3000 - Bridge]
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
[Andre 3000 - Verse One]
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
[Andre 3000 - Bridge]
A boy

Young age

A pain
But she s alive
[Woman talking]
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

[Woman talking]
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
