 C           D
 i intend to pay you back

G                                  
when my mind was turning loose and

dreams
    C                        G
and i hate to say it but the way it 
seems
        C  D      G         C
is that no one is fine

take the time to peel a few layers

and full grown i've been known to 
C         D
lean on a bottle

angela became a target
   D                      G
as soon as her beauty was seen
   C                      G
by young men who try to reduce her 
down
     Em                  D7
to a scene on an x-rated screen
           C                     
is she not more than the curve of 
     G
her hips
           C                     
is she not more than the shine on 
     G
her lips
             Bm                   
does she not dream to sing and to 
Em                          Am
live and to dance down her own path
              D7
without being torn apart
                    C
does she not have a heart

  G                      C
i cannot go on with this evil inside
 me
  Am                           C  
i step out my front door and i 
        D
feel it surround me

     G                   C
just know the kingdom of god is 
within you
Am                        C      
even though the battle is bound 
     D
to continue

       C               G
'cause i still wake up shaken by 
dreams
