This is my song of inspiration. The words asy exactley what & how I feel. India is a gooddess to the music industry & her fans. I've been a fan since the 1st album & I'm here to stay. I love her music. I think she's awesome, amazing, terrific and an angel who can write words & turn them into beautiful songs for the world to hear & enjoy. Simply amazing!
Such an inspiring song to me. I will try something new this year (2011). I'm gonna do me & not worry about what others' think. Life is wonderful & precious & I'm gonna enjoy every waking moment. God has been so patient with me & I'm going to give more of myself to help those who are less fortunate than I am. I look forward to all the new things I will try & if I fail at any of it, I won't worry, If I feel the need, I'll try again. Happy New Year to all & be blessed.
Does anyone know the mix that Tyra plays on her opening.. its faster and more up beat! this is a gorgeous song but i want both versions...this slow one and the faster one..
misschezelle, you forgot the first part of that line: "I'm gonna swallow my pride". It's not about getting in people's faces and being obnoxiously individual, it's about embracing who you are, faults included
@yahchilyah She wrote/recorded this song for The Tyra Banks Show as the theme tune. It was used for the 1st season for her talk show. Not sure if they still use it today
I sang this song @ my brothers high school graduation........it made me and almost everyone else cry.....this song has sooooo much power.....thnx INDIA
India, you are so very inspirational!!! I listen to ALL of your music regularly, and it KEEPS ME UPLIFTED!
HOTEP!!!!
I LOVE YA LADIE! OH YEA HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I'M A LIBRA OCT 18..WHEN I HEARD YOU WERE A LIBRA, I ALMOST SCREAMED...CUZ I CAN RELATE TO YOU SOOO MUCH!!! THATS ALRIGHT WIT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
This song has been a part of my daily recovery from alcoholism. I am two years sober and this song says it all for me, everyday. God Bless you India, you constantly inspire me to be better.
I am a very big fan of India.Arie... And I'm not trying to make you like her as everyone is entitled to their own opinion... However if you just listen to her singles I recommend checking out the albums, the songs that don't get radio play are the songs I listen to most from her... Just food for thought... God Bless....
This song and her voice (and the voice behind the voice--the message) is so simple, true, down to earth, yet profound. Excellent choice of fav. lyric. :)
does anybody know where can i find the mix of this song aired at tyra's show??? halp please!!

The line that stands out the most for me is
It's okay not to know
Exploration is how we grow
It's ok to not have the answer
Coz sometimes
It's the question that matters
I love the whole song though its so powerful and inspirational
