The River (Album Version) - Lyfe Jennings
Written by：Chester Jennings
I was born by the river

That my momma cried when my daddy died

Maybe that was the reason I didn't get the attention

That I was needing to touch cuz
I reminded her of him too much

Couldn't understand what she felt so I hated her yeah

Til I was old enough to hate myself
And I felt like a slave down in south carolina

Cursing the vagina that gave life to me

I couldn't see what I had the potential to be

Til I got down on my knees and begged god

To please take control of my life today

Cuz there's no way

There's no way no way no way

I can do it on my own

And no matter how my friends try to console

They can never never know

What I go through

So I turn my heart over completely

To you yes lord I do

I was born in a hurry

Cuz my momma had to be back to work at 8:30

Maybe that was the reason there was always this feeling

That she was rushing herself

She didn't even have the time to spend loving herself

Let alone someone else

So I hated her yea

Cuz I loved her yea

And I cried yea

Like the klu klux klan at the million man march

Partially broke my spirit partially broke my heart

I couldn't start to be what I had
