Gowe - Dear Eve (Feat. Jennifer Chung)

Here lies resting in peace
how can it be
Matter fact she was nineteen
far from her peak
Eve loved to cook every recipe
would get her hooked
And she would cherish everything
except the way she looked
She was fed lies she said that
big eyes would change
her whole life
And get the right guy
But still she would cry
proving that her
heart was wounded
Consuming any confidence
while she was still a student
And still she tried to smile the
pain away and keep it hidden
Gripping on for dear life
Christ I'm just barely living
Until the pressure kept on
building and it toppled over
She was on a building
eyes closed stepping forward
darling i know
it's hard to see
when they got you crying
down on your knees
but i hear you i feel you
you're not alone
believe you're more than that
She wrote Dear journal I'm
hurting and I feel the pressure
I got a lecture from aunt esther
about looking better
And my mom she sort of sat there
and just paid attention
Listening the whole time
nodding without interjecting
I mean I kind of figured
I guess I'm not attractive
I mean my figure could be
thinner so I try to practice
But I am so hungry
I just feel so ugly
And if they do judge me
I know that God loves me
I'm ready now
so put me under anesthesia
If I'm breathing I am hoping
this will give me freedom
I'm only fifteen and
hoping for a new me
I wish I was free
sincerely signed Eve
darling i know
it's hard to see
when they got you crying
down on your knees
but i hear you i feel you
you're not alone
believe you're more than that
They try to break
to compensate for what
they lack in their own faith
so when i say
it isn't too late
it's not a lie there's no debate
don't need to stay
in a broken place
you got what it takes
look inside your heart
your happiness awaits
Dear Eve I'm bout to tell you
something that will
shape the future
You're a queen you're a princess
but not a loser
Your eyes are beautiful
your smile is contagious
And You're really good at baking
even now I can taste it
And there are real men
admittedly not much
And if they want lust I promise
that is not love
If you could just live and
strive for your full potential
Lives will be touched
I can promise
you'll be something special
Beauty's all around us
take a while to breathe it
Let it live inside you and
throughout time you'll see it
I'm telling you the secret only
God can love you more
There is only one of you
so it's time to let it soar
darling i know
it's hard to see
when they got you crying
down on your knees
but i hear you i feel you
you're not alone
believe you're more than that
darling i know
it's hard to see
when they got you crying
down on your knees
but i hear you i feel you
you're not alone
believe you're more than that
