Something New (Inspired by the Movie and Real Life)

Damn…

Of all the things that could come into my life and disrupt my plans

Why did it have to be her?

I was prepared for everything, even some stormy weather

But I never could’ve seen being blindsided by this woman

She’s the best and worst thing that could’ve happened to me

At a time when I thought I had all that I could need

Her name is Katrina, it’s appropriate I guess

Since she came through and made my world a bit of a mess

5’6″ with long blonde hair and the prettiest green eyes

She looked through me, into my soul and had me mesmerized

Our instant attraction was more than just alarming

Because I’ve never been one for “extra milk in my coffee”

Then she made me a latte’ just the way I like it

She got me to paint her nails, even made me go hiking

We were just having fun, being young and in love

It felt as if our relationship had been touched from above

And then the rest of the world stuck their noses in our life

“You 2 together just ain’t right, you’re black and she’s white”

Love may be blind but people sure as hell can see everything

Except the beauty of my feelings for her and hers for me

Interracial love isn’t some kind of fad, nor should it be taboo

If you open your heart, maybe you can get something new too
