Song by Lauryn Hill<br /><br>

Everything is everything<br>

What is meant to be, will be<br>

After winter, must come spring<br>

Change, it comes eventually<br>

[2x]<br>

<br>

I wrote these words for everyone<br>

Who struggles in their youth<br>

Who won't accept deception<br>

Instead of what is truth<br>

It seems we lose the game,<br>

Before we even start to play<br>

Who made these rules? We're so confused<br>

Easily led astray<br>

Let me tell ya that<br>

Everything is everything<br>

Everything is everything<br>

After winter, must come spring<br>

Everything is everything<br>

<br>

I philosophy<br>

Possibly speak tongues<br>

Beat drum, Abyssinian, street Baptist<br>

Rap this in fine linen<br>

From the beginning<br>

My practice extending across the atlas<br>

I begat this<br>

Flippin' in the ghetto on a dirty mattress<br>

You can't match this rapper / actress<br>

More powerful than two Cleopatras<br>

Bomb graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti<br>

MCs ain't ready to take it to the Serengeti<br>

My rhymes is heavy like the mind of Sister Betty<br>

L. Boogie spars with stars and constellations<br>

Then came down for a little conversation<br>

Adjacent to the king, fear no human being<br>

Roll with cherubims to Nassau Coliseum<br>

Now hear this mixture<br>

Where hip hop meets scripture<br>

Develop a negative into a positive picture<br>

<br>

Now, everything is everything<br>

What is meant to be, will be<br>

After winter, must come spring<br>

Change, it comes eventually<br>

<br>

Sometimes it seems<br>

We'll touch that dream<br>

But things come slow or not at all<br>

And the ones on top, won't make it stop<br>

So convinced that they might fall<br>

Let's love ourselves then we can't fail<br>

To make a better situation<br>

Tomorrow, our seeds will grow<br>

All we need is dedication<br>

<br>

Let me tell ya that,<br>

Everything is everything<br>

Everything is everything<br>

After winter, must come spring<br>

Everything is everything<br>

<br>

Everything is everything<br>

What is meant to be, will be<br>

After winter, must come spring<br>

Change, it comes eventually<br>

<br>
