So Have I For You Lyrics

Nikka Costa

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 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, so have I for you
Mama, you can choose the rain but I choose the sun Mama, you can choose the rain but I choose the sun That's all I need to free myself, 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 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 you
And 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 for
Mama, you can choose the rain but I choose the sun Mama, you can choose the rain but I choose the sun That's all I need to free myself, that's all I need to free myself
This bird's gonna fly so high, watch my sky come undone, hey Mama, you can choose the rain but I choose the sun That's all I need to free myself, that's all I need to free myself That's all I need to free myself, that's all I need to free myself
