My color purple by WENDY C JENNINGS

IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY COLOR PURPLE

IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY LIFE, WHERE WOULD I BE?

LOOKING INTO THE THE MOUNTAINS MY EYES HAVE CRIED MANY OF FOUNTAINS.

MANY OF THINGS I'VE HAVE COME TO SEE,

I PRAISE THE LORD FOR WHAT HE HAS ALLOWED ME TO BE.

THE DOCTORS PRONOUCE ME DEAD AT TWO, MY GRANDMOTHER PRAYED AND SAID

GOD IS NOT THROUGH.

AT FIVE A MAN HURT ME BADLY

I'M STILL ALIVE.

MY YOUNG TEEN LIFE I FELT SO OUT IN SPACE,

MOST OF MY FRIENDS HAD LEFT THIS PLACE.

I HAD A CHILD WHO WOULD LOVE ME

A MAN WHO WOULD PUT A GUN TO MY FACE.

I'VE NEVER KNOWN HOW TO LOVE MYSELF, I THOUGHT I HAD TO PLEASE OTHERS TO BE LOVED.

I MUST LOVE MYSELF

THAT IS WHAT I MUST SEE TO BE ME.

I'VE CLIMB MANY MOUNTINS OF PAIN.

NOW I MUST CLIMB THE MOUNTIN THAT GOD HAS PROCLAIM.

ACCEPTING THE LORD CHRIST AS MY LORD AND SAVIOR.

I WILL SOON SEE MY LIFE WILL BE FREE.

PURPLE

THAT IS ME

JUST LIKE THE COLOR PURPLE GOD HAS NOT PASSED ME BY.

HE WAS JUST TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING.

AS I LOOK OUT INTO THAT BIG BLUE SKY, MY COLOR IS PURPLE

THERE IS NO REASON TO EVER CRY

GOD HAS NOT PASSED ME BY.

THANK YOU GOD FOR ALLOWING ME THE STRENTH TO CLIMB THESE MOUNTINS.

IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY COLOR PURPLE

YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER SAW, THAT IS ME,

PAIN

UNDERSTANDING

REPECT

PRAYING

LOVING

EXPECTING

THE UNEXPECTED, MY COLOR PURPLE

Fade To Purple

As if Im sitting on purple clouds
Covered in purple shrouds
Singing purple kissed melodies loud
The Purple Master himself would be proud

Gifted, these fragrant purple flowers
Soaking wet, drenched from purple showers
Lifted, high high high atop purple towers

Yet as I walk through purple haze rooms
Filled with purple phased fumes
Im enlightened by the purple tazed blooms
Purple vibes that remove crazed glooms

Hungry I appetize on purple wood blunts
To then feast upon a purple smoke lunch
Break bread, along with the purple grape bunch
Fade To Purple To Get Me Through The Crunch
