[00:17.08] | All Alone (No One to Be With) |
[00:20.48] | As a youth, each Sunday, Dawn went to Church and |
[00:23.28] | Paid her respects and not to mention was a virgin. |
[00:26.10] | Kid pushed up, Dawn lettin' him |
[00:28.31] | Since he made her laugh and all the other girls was sweatin' him. |
[00:31.32] | Then things started to move without cause |
[00:33.38] | And a couple o'months later kid's pushin' for the drawers. |
[00:36.23] | Under pressure while exchangin' glances |
[00:38.59] | Dawn finally gives in to the sexual advances. |
[00:41.58] | Although it was a mad high cost for her |
[00:43.77] | Cuz' after the thrill was gone, so was the lust for her. |
[00:46.49] | Eventually he left her for another. |
[00:48.82] | Now feeling alone and betrayed by her lover |
[00:51.30] | She cried--for no longer knew which way she headed. |
[00:54.00] | Once dreamed of actually wearing white at her wedding |
[00:56.45] | And really being pure, now she thought she'd die without. |
[00:59.24] | Still she finds strength to continue with her life without |
[01:01.65] | Love... |
[01:03.87] | Without love... |
[01:06.09] | Without love... |
[01:08.79] | Without love... |
[01:11.84] | Verse two of Dawn's life--the second segment. |
[01:14.33] | What could be worse than to now find out you're pregnant? |
[01:17.14] | Poor Dawn couldn't sleep--laid awake |
[01:19.13] | Not ready for a child and plus her mother's gonna break. |
[01:21.95] | As she doesn't know how she's gonna bring up the subject, |
[01:24.51] | Consequences of being used as an object. |
[01:27.42] | In church though time's runnin' thin |
[01:29.50] | She decides to have the child because the doesn't want to sin. |
[01:32.30] | Props to the girl although it hit hard times; |
[01:34.60] | It was Hell finishin' school and working part-time. |
[01:37.38] | Yet Dawn did it though her youth went to waste. |
[01:39.71] | Little help from the government, she got her own place. |
[01:42.44] | HARD for an indepentant woman and a kid |
[01:44.79] | And as soon as she could get off the assistance, she did. |
[01:47.49] | Without no man who she once thought she'd die without |
[01:50.04] | Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without |
[01:52.73] | Love... |
[01:54.85] | Life without love... |
[02:03.75] | Life without love... |
[02:05.57] | Continue with her life without love... |
[02:22.04] | While Dawn worked two jobs tryin' to meet ends, |
[02:24.30] | Her son was busy cuttin' school and hangin' with his friends. |
[02:27.02] | So when she got words she tried to slap out the taste in his mouth |
[02:30.23] | And explain how important education is. |
[02:32.45] | Under stress, she takes two Bufferin. |
[02:34.73] | Son now tired of seein' his poor mother sufferin'. |
[02:37.35] | Starts to sell drugs though the cops did a raid. |
[02:39.74] | Guess who's in the mix, and being legal age |
[02:42.38] | Could do time, please call her employer |
[02:44.75] | To inform her that her son is gonna' need a lawyer. |
[02:47.45] | Never no good news, just more strife. |
[02:49.88] | Dawn barely havin' enough time to live her own life. |
[02:52.50] | Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'. |
[02:55.11] | Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him. |
[02:57.61] | Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'. |
[03:02.07] | Now spends nine hours on the bus to goa nd see him. |

[03:07.16] | Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without |
