India Arie - Strength, Courage & Wisdom Lyrics

Inside my head there lives a dream that I want to see in the sun
Behind my
eyes there lives a me that I've been hiding for much too long
'Cause I've
been, too afraid to let it show
'Cause I'm scared of the judgment that may
follow
Always putting off my living for tomorrow
It's time to step out on
faith, I've gotta show my faith
It's been illusive for so long, but freedom
is mine today
I've gotta step out on faith, It's time to show my
faith
Procrastination had me down but look what I have found, I
found

[Chorus]
Strength, courage, and wisdom 
And it's been
inside of me all along, 
Strength, courage, and wisdom
Inside of me


Behind my pride there lives a me, that knows humility 
Inside my
voice there is a soul, and in my soul there is a voice
But I've been, too
afraid to make a choice
'Cause I'm scared of the things that I might be
missing
Running too fast to stop and listen

It's time to step out on
faith, I've gotta show my faith
It's been illusive for so long but freedom is
mine today
I've gotta step out on faith it's time to show my
faith
Procrastination had me down but look what I have found, I
found

[Chorus]
Strength, courage, and wisdom
And it's been
inside of me all along, 
Strength, courage, and wisdom
Inside of
me

[Bridge]
I close my eyes and I think of all the things that
I want to see
'Cause I know, now that I've opened up my heart I know
that
Anything I want can be, so let it be, so let it
be:.

[Chorus]
Strength, courage, and wisdom
It's been inside
of me all along, 
Strength, courage, wisdom
It's been inside of me all
along, everyday I'm praying for:

[Chorus]
Strength, courage,
and wisdom
To find me, yeah,
Strength, courage, and wisdom
Inside of
me

Vamp
I found it in me, I found it finally
I'm sure to keep it'
cause I like it, I say thank you
