The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

My world it moves so fast today

The past it seems so far away

And life squeezes, so tightly that I can't breathe

And every time I've tried to be

What someone else thought of me

So caught up I wasn't able to achieve

But deep in my heart

The answer, it was in me

And I made up my mind

To define my own destiny

Oh, no

I, I look at my environment

And wonder where the fire went

What happened to everything we used to be?

I hear so many cry for help

Searching outside of themselves

Now I know that His strength is within me

And deep in my heart

The answer, it was in me

And I made up my mind

To define my own destiny

And deep in my heart

Oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh

Ah-ah-ah

No, no, no

No, no, no

And deep in my heart

The answer, it was in me

And I made up my mind

To define my own destiny
