You came up in the world as a project girl
Got hurled into poverty trying to survive the atrocity
Under Jim Crow policy where black bodies get found decomposed
That's why they nicknamed it Smelly Road trying to survive the woes
White man tip toeing not knowing months later Grace will be showing
The cycle repeats you and JR had to keep your siblings so school
You wasn't visiting dropped out at fourteen they say the ends
Justify the means when your life's on a balance beam
A young teen with pain experiencing the things you can't explain
That all changed at a softball game when you met Sonny
A young country boy still in school pretty soon ya'll jump
The broom now your womb is filled he quit school
Started working at the mill you praying Jesus please take the wheel Ya

Last night I had a dream beautiful as Linda Faye that brought a song an Angel
As bright as her day in my eyes
She is perfection I see she is all these things and more

As time fast forward now you praising the Lord throughout
The years you been sanctified and holy ghost filled
As your family build four kids you taught us to kneel at the alter
And say Thou Heavenly Father he's not the author of confusion
Your soul is soothing from the word outside they pitching on the curb
At times you was brave telling thugs ya'll need to get saved
Cause we living in the last days so the tithes you gave
Family members stayed when they had no place to go
You would open the door either the couch or the floor
You let them stay until things got better even though we're
In a single wide trailer still under pressure still facing oppression
On a daily my birth certificate says Negro baby like I'm sold into slavery
But you told us God will make a way taught us to pray instead of being the prey Ha

Last night I had a dream beautiful as Linda Faye that brought a song an Angel
As bright as her day in my eyes
She is perfection I see she is all these things and more
I Love Linda Faye, I Love Linda Faye
