To Figure - Debrah Scarlett

I walked, I walked a thousand miles

I thought, I thought with my mind

I stopped to tell the truth to my father

So that he wouldn’t know

Only knew my mother

The road I was on

And isn’t just this I face what I’m doing

Isn’t just this I knocked my rebel yard

Or was this a path I was supposed to go

And now I’m not staying here

Full start from the way

I cannot lie

I need to do this on my own

I’m sorry for the conversation

But I have to tell you this

How to figure what is right

To figure what is wrong

On my own

Let’s stay calm and talk for a while

Make me speak out loud my mind

Without you twisting my words

Into another light

Don’t you get so upset

In a mirror of yourself

And isn’t just this I face what I’m doing

Isn’t just this I knocked my rebel yard

Or was this a path I was supposed to go

And now I’m not staying here

Full start from the way

I cannot lie

I need to do this on my own

I’m sorry for the conversation

But I have to tell you this

How to figure what is right

To figure what is wrong

On my own

Write it down on a piece of paper

So you’ll always remember

The things that carry you through

Music it’s you, music it’s you, music it’s you

Now I’m not staying here

Full start from the way

I cannot lie

I need to do this on my own

I’m sorry for the conversation

But I have to tell you this

How to figure what is right

To figure what is wrong

On my own
