so have if or you

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo
I dont need a gun,
Ive 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 youYour seeds of misery have sprouted and they try to block my way
Worst gets the better of you and you try to disarm me with an embrace
Just like the heart thats spent a lifetime
Forgiving what is cruel, so have
I for you, so have
I for youMama, you can choose the rain but
I choose the sun
Mama, you can choose the rain but
I choose the sun
Thats all
I need to free myself, thats all
I need to free myself
I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo
I dont need a gun,
I got a microphone and a melody or two
Just like the earth has spent a thousand years
Making up for what we do and so have
I for youAnd
I have justified every wave in our ocean
And I have covered every range of emotion
Just like the sea has spent eternity
At the mercy of the moon, so have
I for you, so have
I forMama, you can choose the rain but
I choose the sun
Mama, you can choose the rain but
I choose the sun
Thats all
I need to free myself, thats all
I need to free myself
This birds gonna fly so high, watch my sky come undone, hey
Mama, you can choose the rain but
I choose the sun
Thats all
I need to free myself, thats all
I need to free myself
Thats all
I need to free myself, thats all
Ineed to free myself
