[India.Arie, MC Lyte - Psalms 23 lyrics]
MC Lyte: Tell 'em what you
See Miss High Riser
I see money come between my
Best friend and me (What else?)
I see old friends become new enemies
(Tell 'em where you been)
I've been through a couple of litigations
I've been through character assassination
They try to put this stick
In between my wheels
But they can't stop my motivation
Nothing will
Well I walked through the valley where
The shadow of death is
I feared no evil cuz I'm protected
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Cuz I'm walking with the heavenly father
And I do believe that I'm gonna prosper
Cuz I'm walking with the prayers of my mother
You won't get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
I was thinkin' maybe this isn't
The live for me
I was thinkin' maybe I should
Leave the music industry
I've been betrayed by the people I trusted
I've been ohhh, seriously disgusted
They try to put this stick
In between my wheels
But they can't stop my motivation
Nothing will
Well I walked through the valley where
The shadow of death is
I feared no evil cuz I'm protected
No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Cuz I'm walking with the heavenly father
And I do believe that I'm gonna prosper
Cuz I'm walking with the prayers of my mother
You won't get the best of me
Even though you got my money
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Even though you got my money
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up) mC Lyte:
You can't get the best of
Me cuz of my destiny not to be less than me
But to be more so don't question me
I came and I conquered
I soared to new heights and still I explore
In my fight to survive, Lyte still do right
Keep my eyes on new sights
I continue to plight
So when you try hurtin' me, even desertin' me
Know that I'm designed to overcome adversity
Wanna bring out the worst in me
It won't happen
Cuz I take responsibility for my action
My tenacity, well it has to be everlastin'
Cuz even when it comes to
Backstabbers I'm laughin' haha
You won't get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Even though you got my money
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Even though you got my money
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Don't stop, reach up)
You won't get the best of me
Because by the grace of God
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Pick up the pieces)
You won't get the best of me
Because by the grace of God
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Pick up the pieces)
You won't get the best of me
Because by the grace of God
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Pick up the pieces)
You won't get the best of me
Because by the grace of God
I'm gon' pick up the pieces
(Pick up the pieces)
