So Have I For You

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo

I don't need a gun,

I've got a microphone and a melody or two

Just like the earth has spent a thousand years

Making up for what we do, so have

I for youYour seeds of misery have sprouted and they try to block my way

Worst gets the better of you and you try to disarm me with an embrace

Just like the heart that's spent a lifetime

Forgiving what is cruel, so have

I for you, so have

I for youMama, you can choose the rain but

I choose the sun

Mama, you can choose the rain but

I choose the sun

That's all

I need to free myself, that's all

I need to free myself

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo

I don't need a gun,

I got a microphone and a melody or two

Just like the earth has spent a thousand years

Making up for what we do and so have

I for youAnd

I have justified every wave in our ocean

And I have covered every range of emotion

Just like the sea has spent eternity

At the mercy of the moon, so have

I for you, so have

I forMama, you can choose the rain but

I choose the sun

Mama, you can choose the rain but

I choose the sun

That's all

I need to free myself, that's all

I need to free myself

This bird's gonna fly so high, watch my sky come undone, hey

Mama, you can choose the rain but

I choose the sun

That's all

I need to free myself, that's all

I need to free myself

That's all

I need to free myself, that's all

I need to free myself
