India Arie - Get It Together

beautiful song!

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin
No one has the power to hurt you like your kin
Kept it inside, didn't tell no one else
Didn't even wanna admit it to yourself
And your chest burns and your back aches
From 15 years of holding the pain
And now you only have yourself to blame if you continue to live this way

Get it together (you wanna heal your body)
Get it together (you'll have to heal your heart)
Whatsoever you sow you will reap
Get it together
You can fly, fly

Dark future ahead of me that's what they say
I'd be starving if I ate all the lies they fed
Cause I've been redeemed from your anguish and pain
A miracle child I'm floating on a cloud
Cause the words that come from your mouth your the first to hear
Speak words of beauty and you will be there
No matter what anybody says
What matters most is what you think of yourself

Get it together (you wanna heal your body)
Get it together (you'll have to heal your heart yeah)
Whatsoever you sow you will reap
Get it together

The choice is yours
No matter what it is
To chose life is to chose to forgive
You don't have to try to hurt me or break his pride
Just shake that weight off and you'll be ready to fly

One shot to you heart without breaking your skin
No one has the power to hurt you like your friends
Thought it would never change but as time moved on
That ugly duckling grew up to be a swan
And your chest burns and your back aches
Because now the years are showing up on your face
But you'll never be happy and you'll never be whole until you see the beauty in growing old

Get it together (you wanna heal your body)
Get it together (you'll have to heal your heart)
Whatsoever you sow you will reap
Get it together

Get it together (you wanna heal your body)
Get it together (you'll have to heal your heart)
Whatsoever you sow you will reap
Get it together

You can fly, fly, fly, fly
You can live all you can buy
You know that life that is a choice is you make
You can give our you can take

You can fly, fly, fly, fly
You can fly, fly, fly, fly
You can fly, fly, fly, fly
You can fly, fly, fly, fly
