I'm a Georgia Peach!!!!
Occupation
working to own my plus size empire.....
First let me say Father you've been good to me
and I wanna say thank you for letting me be

The sinner that I am
I know things between us aint always been glam

But i have to say thank you Father for giving me the strength
and thank you for over and over giving me the chance to repent

Today Father I hope your smiling on me
Cause today out of all the days I feel free

The one man who I thought I could lean on
The one whom I thought our love was strong
Now think Im in the wrong

I know you told me Father to help one anotha
and Father I've helped him to get further

I lied, stole, and killed
My pride, dignity, and my will

Just so that he can be happy
I even went against my own pappy

When waters begin to ruffle he's never around
Always leaving me to struggle while he's above ground

Lord I cried and cried because you told me to love
And Father I thought his love came from above

I said Father I had enough
Of this unappreciative Negro stuff

He slapped me disappointed me
He continue to rape me

Of my kind heartedness
Played me for my weakness

But I said Devil get behind me you aint getting this no more
and Father im on my knees saying Help me to even the score

and then I heard
O happy Days/ O happy Days when Jesus washed/ when Jesus washed / he washed my sins away

I begin to rejoice because I no longer felt the pressure
No matter what no man put before me his drama wont be able to measure

Because I no longer wallow in his deception
You and only you took me in with warm reception

I ask for strength you gave it
I ask for the power you gave it
I ask for respect you gave it
I ask for the will you gave it

And you help me your undeserving child to get off her feet
Oh Father I feel like praising ya cause you help me to defeat

To overcome his wicked ways
and thats why I continue to pray

Because one night I just couldnt sleep and I felt Maybe God was trying to tell me something
Cause my Heart to go jumping
Cause I heard this

If I were you I say yes Speak Lord, Speak to me / I love you Lord/ Cause you cant sleep at night/and you sho'll wonder why/ Maybe God is trying to tell you something

And I listen Lord to your words
and the tears begin to fall from hearing the Proverbs

and you gave me the strength to tell him no
Im tired of being the devil little Ho
and you told me he's gots to go

and I want to say Oh what a Happy Day/Cause My God was trying to tell me something!!!!!!!!!!!!
