Get It Together

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin

No one has the power to hurt you like your kin

Kept it inside, didn't tell no one else

Didn't even wanna admit it to yourself

And now your chest burns and your back aches

From fifteen years of holdin' the pain

And now you only have yourself to blame

If you continue to live this way

Get it together

You wanna heal your body

Get it together

You have to heal your heart

Whatsoever you sow, you will reap

Get it together, ooh

You can fly, fly

Dark future ahead of me, that's what they said

I'd be starvin' if I ate all the lies they fed

'Cause I've been redeemed from your anguish and pain

A miracle child, I'm floatin' on a cloud

'Cause the words that come from your mouth, you're the first to hear

Speak words of beauty and you will be there (Ah)

No matter what anybody says (Ah)

What matters most is what ya think of yourself

Get it together

You wanna heal your body

Get it together

You have to heal your heart, yeah

Whatsoever you sow, you will reap (Ooh-mmm)

Get it together

The choice is yours

No matter what it is

To choose life is to choose to forgive

You don't have to try and hurt him

Or break his pride

Just shake that weight off

And you'll be ready to fly

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin

No one has the power to hurt you like your friends

Thought it would never change, but as time moved on

That ugly duckling grew up to be a swan

And now your chest burns and your back aches

Because, now the years are showin' up on your face

But you'll never be happy and you'll never be whole

Until you see the beauty in growing old

Get it together

You wanna heal your body

Get it together

You have to heal your heart

Whatsoever you sow, you will reap (Oh-oh-oh, ooh)

Get it together

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh

Ah, no

Get it together

You wanna heal your body

Get it together

You have to heal your heart, yeah

Whatsoever you sow, you will reap

Get it together

Ooh

You can fly, fly, fly, fly

You can live or you can die

You know that life is a choice you make

You can give or you can take

You can fly, fly, fly, fly

You can fly, fly, fly, fly

You can fly, fly, fly, fly

You can fly, fly, fly, fly
