Ben Clapton - What Do You See? (Do You See Jesus in Me) Lyrics

I was just nine years old when the army came to town
The army meant to save us burned it to the ground
As I hid I saw my friends and family die

I was just twelve years old when a man came to our door
Told my mum he had a job for me with money food and more
In the brothel now I know that it was all a lie

When you look at me, what do you see
Do you see me as a gift, given to a man
Do you see the years of pain, of mem'ries trapping me
Do you see Jesus? Do you see Jesus
Do you see Jesus in me

I was just fifteen years old when I had my first joint
Thought I was cool and knew that I had to prove a point
Broken, alone, addicted, who will help me now

When you look at me, what do you see
Do you see me as a gift, given to a man
Do you see the years of pain, of mem'ries trapping me
Do you see Jesus? Do you see Jesus
Do you see Jesus in me

I was thirty four years old and had done it all before
Rich and loaded, but one mistake and I was shown the door
Now I live out on the streets, and all I see are scowls

When you look at me, what do you see
Do you see me as a gift, given to a man
Do you see the years of pain, of mem'ries trapping me
Do you see Jesus? Do you see Jesus
Do you see Jesus in me
