NIKKA COSTA - So Have I For You lyrics

rate me

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo

I don't need a gun I've got a microphone and a melody or two

Just like the earth has spent a thousand years making up for what we do

So have I for you

Your seeds of misery have sprouted and they try to block my way

The worst gets the better of you and you try to disarm me with an embrace

Just like the heart that's spent a lifetime forgiving what is cruel

So have I for you

Well mama you can choose the rain but I choose the sun

That's all I need to free myself

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo

I don't need a gun I've got a microphone and a melody or two

Just like the earth has spent a thousand years making up for what we do

So have I for you

I have justified every wave in our ocean

I have covered every range of emotion

And just like the sea has spent eternity at the mercy of the moon

So have I for you

Well mama you can choose the rain but I choose the sun

That's all I need to free myself

This bird's gonna fly so high

Watch my sky come undone

Mama you can choose the rain

But I choose the sun
