He made me feel alive

For the first time, in a long time

Looking me in the eye

Pushed me to survive

To live life without compromise

 

Black and white

Right and wrong

Showed me how to be strong

How to move along

He cared enough to see past my mistakes

He looked past my shame, 

Then I saw how I could change

 

If you care

You can help set a prisoner free

Most people are afraid to take away the mask

It is never an easy task

But if you care

You can help set someone free

That there is always hope

Always a chance to turn around

I’m not saying it is an easy thing to do

But sometimes love is the only way to get through
