India Arie Lyrics Psalm 23

(Not yet released on the web)


I see
Money come between my best friend and me
I see
Old friends become new enemies
I’ve been
Through a couple of litigations
I’ve been
Through character assassination

They tried to put this stick in between my wheels
But they can’t stop my motivation
Nothing will

I walk through the valley where the shadow of death is
I fear no evil ‘cause I’m protected

No weapon armed against me shall prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the heavenly father
And I do believe that I’m gonna prosper
‘Cause 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 gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

I see
Maybe this isn’t the life for me
I was thinkin’
Maybe I should leave the music industry
I’ve been
Betrayed by the people I’ve trusted
I’ve been
Ooohhhh seriously disgusted

They tried to put this stick in between my wheels
But they can’t stop my motivation
Nothing will

I walk through the valley where the shadow of death is
I fear no evil ‘cause I’m protected

No weapon armed against me shall prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the heavenly father
Hey! And I do believe that I’m gonna prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the prayers of my mother
Oh whoa

You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

You won’t get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

You won’t get the best of me
Because by the grace of god
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
