Intro
A# C 4x
You're not using your heart for
What hearts are for
[Chorus]
A#
They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
Am
I thank God for healing
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
Thank God for listening, listen
A#
You've been trying to build me up my whole life
Am
I thank God for building
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
I thank God I'm living
[Verse 1]
A#
Sometime I feel like a stranger, maybe I ain't from here
Am
World going crazy, how could that be unclear?
A#
Know that I'm a soldier, heart's are my battleground
Am
Sword in the holster, had to come back around
A#
I ain't trying to hide away, I just had to meditate
Am
I ain't got a lot to say but the ancestors may
A#
Speaking to the whole globe, numbers don't occur to me
Am
You can listen solo 'cause you're the whole world to me
A#
I jump in with both feet nothing low key
Am
You can find me where I'm s'posed be, where my folks be
A#
If you listen very closely you know who chose me
Am
Nothing that I own owns me and so I'm so free
A#
I remember being hungry needing groceries
Am
Nighttime getting no sleep 'til my nose bleed
A#
Got a message to the police:
Am
You're not using your heart for what hearts are for
[Chorus]
A#
They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
Am
I thank God for healing
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
Thank God for listening, listen
A#
You've been trying to build me up my whole life
Am
I thank God for building
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
I thank God I'm living
[Verse 2]
A#
Not for one second I believe what you're telling me
Am
I know you invented disease and sell the remedy
A#
Universe is sending me centuries of memories
Am
So the very breath that I breathe is all I ever need
A#
I got that Muhammad Ali up in my pedigree
Am
Yes I be speaking my peace up in my seventies
A#
Ain't worry bout ya threatening me, I'm just being honest
Am
I ain't buying fear just because it's all you got left
A#
We just want to make love 'til we wake up
Am
I believe whoever made us envisioned greatness
A#
And you know they want to paint us with the same brush
Am
Wanna interchain us 'til we fill our grave up
A#
Alright okay but when it's all said and it's all done
Am
And I look back at the trophies I won
A#
I will only count one
Am
I'm using my heart for what hearts are for
[Chorus]
A#
They've been trying to shut us down our whole life
Am
I thank God for healing
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
Thank God for listening, listen
A#
You've been trying to build me up my whole life
Am
I thank God for building
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
I thank God I'm living
[Verse 3]
A#
And I know who I am
I know whose I am
Am
On your wings, I fly
And in your shoes, I stand
A#
I'm animated by love, I don't move by chance
Am
Any stage I touch or any place I stand
A#
There y'all land, living in the world as it is
Am
Cracked vessel, I am no more and no less than a man
A#
Any po-sessions that I have are just in my hand
Am
I'm balancing the best that I can
A#
I'm not making no claims but
Am
I'm using my heart for what hearts are for
[Chorus]
A#
All the beauty in this whole life (uh)
Am
I thank God for healing
A#
And You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
I thank God for listening, listen
A#
You've been trying to build me up my whole life
Am
I thank God for building
A#
You ain't got to get me lit, I got my own light
Am
I thank God I'm living
A#
Just reflecting all the beauty in this whole life
