Soundtrack Album: The Color Purple

She Be Mine Text

[Intro]
I see my baby girl
Can't be no one else
Lookin' just like me and my daddy
No words when I saw myself

[Verse 1]
I sees her hand on the lady's shoulder
She come out of me chewin' her fist
She got my eyes
And a face I done kissed
I sews "Olivia" on her didies
Lil' stars and flowers too
I know she sees
Same things I do

[Chorus]
Oh, the Lord done sent me a sign
Oh, I know she be mine

[Post-Chorus]
Mm, mm

[Verse 2]
When I see mamas holdin' babies
I feel pain come across my heart
Somethin' deep inside
Bein' tore apart
It like a spell come on my body
My baby's breath on me
She gon' carry her away
But I still see

[Chorus]
Oh, the Lord done sent me a sign
Oh, I know she be mine
Oh, the Lord done sent me a sign
Oh, I know she be mine

[Post-Chorus]
Mm, mm

[Outro]
Mm, mm
She be mine
She be mine
Mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm
She be mine
Mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm
She be mine
She be mine
She be mine
She be mine
She be mine
She be mine

"She Be Mine" by Phylicia Pearl Mpasi is a poignant sobg that explores the deep emotional connection and longing a mother feels for her child. The song's narrative is told from the perspective of a woman who sees her baby girl and is immediately struck by the child's resemblance to herself and her father. This recognition sparks a profound sense of connection and ownership. The intro sets the tone with its powerful imagery. The mother sees her naby and recognizes herself in the child, not just physically, but on a deeper, almost spiritual level. There's a sense of awe in her realization, indicated by the line "No words when I saw myself." This suggests an overwhelming emotional response, a mix of love, recognition, and perhaps a hint of surprise. In the first verse, the physical connection between mother and daughter is further emphasized through the description of the baby's features – her eyes and face. The act of sewing "Olivia" on her clothes with little stars and flowers is symbolic of the mother's care and attention, an expression of her love and hopes for her child. The shared vision, "I know she sees / Same things I do," suggests a deep, almost mystical bond between them. The chorus, "Oh, the Lord done sent me a sign / Oh, I know she be mine," reflects the mother's firm belief that her daughter is a divine gift, a sign from God. This line expresses a sense of destiny and certainty in their relationship. In the second verse, the mother's feelings become more complex. She speaks of the pain she feels when seeing other mothers with their babies, hinting at a separation or loss. This pain is juxtaposed with a magical, sensory memory of her baby's breath, suggesting a closeness that transcends physical presence. The outro, with its repetitive "She be mine," reinforces the mother's unwavering belief and deep emotional connection to her child, despite any physical separation. The song, therefore, is a heartfelt expression of maternal love, longing, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her child, underscored by a belief in divine providence and connection.
