Jairus (T-Bone):
2
My people telling me that you the man
3
That can heal the sick with ya healin' hand
4
Demand sickness to scram
5
and got power like superman
6
Command the winds to cease
7
Even teach the priest and walk on water - if this true
8
Then I got the faith that you can heal my daughter
9
I'm down on my knees - beggin' ya please
10
I need a blessing - I'm tired of stressing
11
Besides my daughter's just an adolescent
12
I was raised - Raised in Harlem
13
My baby's dying in the street bleeding
14
Barely breathin' - about to die, Hero
15
Caught up - sot up over these drugs
16
By some thugs, Hero
17
I know I'm just a chronic breathin' heathen
18
That's thievin', grievin' and fendin' for
19
My daughter's healin'
20
But I'm still believin'
21
That you can find it in your heart
22
To help a man like me - heal my baby
23
And take away her pain and this misery
24
I was raised - Raised in Harlem
25
(Chorus)
26
I'm pleadin' Hero, Just say a prayer she'll be O.K.
27
I know that if you come and just say the word to my daughter
28
You'll take all the suffering away
29
Just come and touch her and hug her
30
I know that she'll recover
31
Me and her mother love her like crazy
32
'Cuz we got no other
33
Please Hero, place your hands on her forehead
34
Just say the word
35
And raise my baby daughter from the dead
36
Raised - Raised in Harlem
37
Jairus' Wife (Nirva):
38
What's this man got to offer?
39
I sent you to fetch a doctor
40
You're too late - she's gone hereafter
41
Our daughter's a drive-by disaster
42
Just another wasted victim
43
A little teenaged girl who was Raised in Harlem
44
Jairus (T-Bone):
45
Nah, it can't be, man. It just can't be, Y'all
46
Ain't nobody dyin', Mammie, so stop the cryin'
47
Cuz she 'fi' to live
48
This is Hero, the man who came to heal our baby kid
49
Just have the faith and believe that he can fulfill all our needs
50
Heed, him indeed - He's the one who can heal our dyin' seed
51
I got the faith and trust that he can save
52
Our baby Darlin'
53
From Cali to Harlem

His healin' stats are flawless and startlin'
55
I was raised - Raised in Harlem

Hero (Tait):
58
(whispered) I need you, God
59
I know your heart is breaking
60
But this girl is only sleeping
61
If you'll just give us both a minute or two
62
Oh, yeah, they laugh instead of believing
63
They think I've lost my reason
64
But don't fear what you can't see or do
65
You just gotta believe - oh, just believe
66
Jairus (T-Bone):
67
(Repeat Chorus)
68
Do it, Hero
69
I know that you can heal her, my Hero

Just do it, Hero
71
I know that you can heal her, my Hero

Do it, Hero

I know that you can heal her, my Hero

Touch her, Hero

I know that your hands can heal her, Hero
