Lyrics

I feel the energy all in the air Mayhem and madness all everywhere This ain't no place for a child to be She's been down proving only 17 All she could see was her name in lights Her daddy beat her so she left one night This isn't how it was supposed to be She shouldn't have to sell her body for money She was too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Child could sing, she could really dance Somebody see her, please take a chance Here comes a nigga with a bodyguard His hands was soft but his face was hard He told her baby I'll make you a star Opened the door and she got in the car Painted lies of TV and film Just wanted her to sell some mess for him She was too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Red lips and nails with heels to match On the track she's the best catch She thought it'd be a means to an end She really thought that nigga was a friend Oh, her bag is heavy and her life's a mess She clicks the light and starts to get undressed The trick comes in and points the gun to her head Nowhere to run, he shoots her once, she's dead She was too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Ooooh yeah, why Oh why Why She was too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine She was too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine Too fast to last Too low to grow Too high to fly Too bright to shine
