[00:00:11] Dear me

[00:00:13] This is a letter to the girl

[00:00:15] I used to be

[00:00:17] Dear me

[00:00:19] There are some things

[00:00:20] That you should know

[00:00:24] It's not my intention to embarrass

[00:00:28] Or to shame you

[00:00:29] What's inside the rear view mirror is closer

[00:00:34] Than it appears

[00:00:36] We do the best that we know how

[00:00:39] With what we have been given

[00:00:41] And the difference between you and I is

[00:00:45] I've been given time

[00:00:48] In time you'll see

[00:01:06] Dear me

[00:01:07] This is a letter to the girl I used to be

[00:01:12] Some things are not as simple as we said

[00:01:18] Remember when we thought

[00:01:20] There were a handful of some magic words to pray

[00:01:25] A guarantee and a down payment on a mansion

[00:01:31] Remember all the rules

[00:01:33] We made about the body and the blood

[00:01:37] The hoops we made them jump through

[00:01:39] Though he offers it to everyone

[00:01:44] I'm so sorry

[00:01:49] Do you remember now the things

[00:01:51] I said I thought that I deserved

[00:01:55] My flag and safety a place to learn

[00:01:58] The things I know I didn't earn

[00:02:01] And bless their hearts I'm sure it's hard

[00:02:04] But handouts don't help anyone

[00:02:07] And all the talk about the system

[00:02:11] I sure hope someone can fix them

[00:02:15] I said those things

[00:02:31] Dear me

[00:02:32] This is a letter to the girl I used to be

[00:02:37] You'll see you're gonna take the long way

[00:02:43] And there is nothing

[00:02:45] You could do or say to separate you

[00:02:49] From the love of god

[00:02:51] Who made you just exactly as he meant to

[00:02:56] And you cannot imagine all the places

[00:02:59] You'll see Jesus

[00:03:01] But you'll find him everywhere you thought

[00:03:05] He wasn't supposed to go

[00:03:08] So go go

[00:03:14] And hold all the mothers

[00:03:17] Whose babies bleed from bullet holes

[00:03:20] And feel all the hunger

[00:03:23] The bellies and the bones

[00:03:26] Shout for the prisoner

[00:03:29] Cry for justice loud and long

[00:03:32] And march with the victims

[00:03:35] As Jesus marches on

[00:03:38] And sit at all the tables

[00:03:41] 'Cause Jesus eats with everyone

[00:03:44] And dance to the music

[00:03:47] If you can't sing its native tongue

[00:03:50] And cry for the wombs

[00:03:53] The mothers and the empty arms

[00:03:56] And hold high the warriors

[00:03:59] Fighting now for freedoms' song

[00:04:02] And love love love love

[00:04:06] Like it's your own blood

[00:04:08] And love love love love

[00:04:12] As you have been loved

[00:04:15] Love love love love

[00:04:18] Like it's your own blood

[00:04:21] Love love love love

[00:04:24] As you have been loved

[00:04:27] Love love love love love

[00:04:31] Like you have been love

[00:04:34] Love love love love

[00:04:37] It's all about love

[00:04:39] Love love love love love

[00:04:44] His name is love

[00:04:46] Love love love love

[00:04:53] Dear me

[00:04:55] You did not learn this in a day or two or three

[00:05:01] So ask a lot of questions

[00:05:06] But Jesus loves us this I know

[00:05:13] And there are no exceptions
