India.arie - Psalms 23 lyrics

I've seen: money come between my best friend and me I've seen: old friend become new enemies I've been: through a couple of litigations I've been: through character a**a**ination. They try to put this stick in between my wheels But they can't stop my motivation (nothing will) Though I walk through the valley where the shadow of d**h is I fear no evil cause I'm protected. No weapon formed against me shall prosper Cause I'm walking with the heavenly father And I do believe I'm going to prosper Cause I'm walking with the prayers of my mother. [Repeat: x2] You won't get the best of me even though you broke my heart I'm gone pick up the pieces. I was thinking: maybe this isn't the life for me. I was thinking: maybe I should leave the music industry I've been: betrayed by the people I trusted I've been: ohâ? ¦seriously disgusted. They try to put this stick in between my wheels But they can't stop my motivation (nothing will) Though I walk through the valley where the shadow of d**h is I fear no evil cause I'm protected. No weapon formed against me shall prosper, Cause I'm walking with the heavenly father, And I do believe I'm going to prosper Cause I'm walking with the prayers of my mother. [Repeat: x2] You won't get the best of me even though you got my money I'm gone pick up the pieces. You can't get the best of meâ? ¦ cause 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 explored In my fight to survive, Lyte is too right, Keep my eyes on new sights I continue to plight So, when try to hurting me Even deserting me, Know that I am designed to overcome adversity, Want to bring out the worst in me, it won't happen! Because I take responsibility for my actions. My tenacityâ? ¦well it has to be everlasting, Cause even when comes to backstabbers, I'm laughing! You won't get the best of me even though broke my heart â? ¦.i'm gone pick up the pieces. [Repeat: x2] You won't get the best of me even though you got my money I'm gone pick up the pieces. [Repeat: x4] You won't get the best of me because by the grace of god I'm gone pick up the pieces.
