Sister K

There she goes, like a river she flows
tonight shes feeding the poor
everybody knows about the love that she grows
and how she would give it away.


Everyday she would show you some good
taking it as it comes
had it all covered and understood
but not a lot of people knew her
now everybody's lost one, sister

she even gave her self, away
She even gave her self
she even gave her self, away
She even gave herself

for you


She was the queen of project downtown in Tampa
who? Ms Rivera.
She was the home of the homeless of Florida
Sister, Rivera.


She loved the birds chirping down in Tampa
Khadijah Rivera
She was the wind that blows out of Florida
Sister Rivera.


Then she took off her coat didn't mind the cold
that homeless woman needed it more
Said she got another one simply lying at home
the truth was that she didn't.


All that you got in your hands is the end of the score
Life would never die
Just when the caterpillar thought its the end of the road
she turned to a butterfly,
now everybody's lost her

she even gave her self, away
She even gave her self
she even gave her self, away
She even gave herself

for you


She was the queen of project downtown in Tampa
who? Ms Rivera.
She was the home of the homeless of Florida
Sister, Rivera.


She loved the birds chirping down in Tampa
Khadijah Rivera
She was the wind that blows out of Florida
Sister Rivera.


She wanted to surprise all the youth of Tampa
Sister Rivera
But then she flew with her wings over Florida
She left, forever.


She was the wind that blows out of Tampa
Who? Ms. Rivera
She loved the birds chirping down in Florida
Khadijah Rivera


She was the queen of project downtown in Tampa
Sister Rivera
she build a home for the homeless of Florida
Khadijah Rivera



She was the wind that blows out of Tampa
She was, special
She had this habit of always helping others
Sister Rivera


From New York City to Florida
They knew? Ms. Rivera
She loved the birds chirping down in Tampa
Sister, Rivera


Sister K
You OK?
Why'd you have to go this way?
Sister K
You OK?
I'll be checking on you
but I'll be okay.

Its not my call
she'd tell you so
these decisions are made in heaven
she had it her way
be right here today
but you know this is not how it happens...

Sister K
You OK?
I didn't hear from you today?
Sister k
It's OK
you just try to have a good day.

Sister K
where are you today
maybe we'll meet one day, on a Sunday or a Monday
Sister K
I'll be OK
don't worry about me
you just try to have a great day!

Even if the spit in your way
Just try to ho have a good day

Try to have a great day
Try to have a good day
Even if they spit in your face
Try to have a great day.
