paroles de chanson Interlude 1 - Lauryn Hill

I′ll tell you, um
Every single one of these songs, um, is about me first
Me first, um, it was like, you know
There was a period of time where I was just out
You know, just, just gone from the public, and, uh
I came to terms with the fact that
I had created this, uh, public persona, this public illusion
And it became, it, it held me hostage
Like I couldn't be a real person because
You′re too afraid of, you know
Of, of what your, your public will say
And at that point I had to do some dying
And really accept the fact that, look
This is who I am, and I have to be who I am
And all of us have a right to be who we are
And whenever we submit our will
Because our will is a gift, it', it's given to us
Whenever we submit our will
To someone else′s opinion, you know
I mean, a part of us die
You know, and so it′s been, um... it's been
It actually hasn′t been a long time
It feels like a long time
But it hasn't been a long time
Some miraculous things have happened
In a, in a short amount of time, and uh
I′m just very blessed to be able to be here today
And get to share with you some of the things I've learned
I know some of it sounds almost cryptic
And I been really, you know, just, just really, uh
Waiting for the, the patience
And, and really just articulate where I′m coming from
As simply as possible, so I'm working on that
But um, you know, I know
That you know that there's, uh
You know I, I know that God doesn′t lie
And I know that he knows how to talk
To the hearts of people better than anybody else
So I don′t worry about that
'Cause whatever he relates to whomever is listening
That′s what supposed to be understood at that time
So it's all good
But, um, this is a song called "Oh Jerusalem"
