[Verse 1:]
|
Young woman confused
|
Young woman abused
|
You must understand
|
It's never too late to, lose who you are
|
And choose who you are supposed to be
|
Supposed to become
|
You've been in and out
|
Up and down, back and forth
|
Backwards around
|
Not a friend, not a mother, not a father
|
Just God and you should make a choice
|
What you ought to do
|
What matters most
|
Who you are to you
|
Opinions of the old and young
|
Shouldn't matter to you
|
Take advice think it over twice
|
Make a choice that helps you sleep at night
|
It's decent, but recently
|
Things have shown us
|
We have done the wrong things often
|
Never suicide, that's the easy route
|
There's always another way out
|
Think about it (think about it)
|
|
[Chorus (2x)]
|
You can give up
|
Or you can get up
|
Just don't let what you need pass by
|
Spread your wings to the sky
|
Let you soul fall in love
|
|
You can fly
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Now see if you went through life with your eyes closed
|
You never would'a known there was a high road
|
Let people get the best of you and get mad at them
|
Instead of bein' mad at yourself
|
You're only number one in your life
|
And you will decide if it goes right
|
Every time you digress
|
Defeat your progress
|
Feed you knowledge, but you must digest
|
The controversy yo can get personal
|
They don't understand till the role reversal
|
Seekin' fame, play their games
|
Gave a whole lot for a whole little gain
|
Push comes to shove
|
Do you push or shove?
|
When the choice is yours
|
Do you leave or you love?
|
All the tears you cried, you're dyin' inside
|
When will you decide to survive
|
|
[Chorus (2x)]
|
You can give up
|
Or you can get up
|
Just don't let what you need pass by
|
Spread your wings to the sky
|
Let your soul fall in love
|
|
You can fly
|
Fly
|
Fly
|
Fly
|
Fly
|
|
[4x]
|
You can give up
|
Or you can get up
|
Just don't let what you need pass by
|
Spread your wings to the sky
|
Let you soul fall in love
|
|
You can fly
|
