Sammy Copley Marsha
[Verse]
Why should I be rewarded
For work done long before me?
I am reaping what was sewn before my time
[Verse]
And god, does it feel sordid
This love I have afforded
You broke your back so I could straighten mine
[Chorus]
Marsha love, your soul was not a crime
You taught me not to pay them any mind
And every time I speak my truth
In little ways I live for you
To prove the love you gave was worth your time
[Verse]
It's hard not to resent it
The way that time cemented
To think of all that was and could have been
[Verse]
And in the early hours
I think about your flowers
How you tried so very hard to set us free
[Chorus]
Marsha love, your soul was not a crime
You taught me not to pay them any mind
And every time I speak my name
I hope you got to do the same
And prove the dreams you had were worth your time (time)
Marsha P, your dreams were worth your time
[Outro]
Marsha P, your dreams were worth your time
