Authentically You - Kindred The Family Soul, Lady Alma Horton

Well, you been through some shit

Yes, you feel tossed and turned

No, you feel down and out

Trust someone and been burned

I know, they just bitch and laugh

Sacrifice then quit out

Haunted by troubled past

Riddled with guilt and doubt

So put your hands on your heart

And the other to the sky

Lay your troubles down

It’s time to love, no time to cry

There ain’t no wrong or no right, just a blessings of the lesson

Clear your path, sing your song, nice and strong and amplifying

Be new, put your past behind you

And be you, authentically you

I say that life’s a bitch

So much from it you can learn

The present, your greatest gift

Stay interested, stay concerned

Don’t worry 'bout where you been

It’s all about where you’re going

Ask yourself this question

How much love are you showing?

Don’t lose your head in the game

And keep your eyes on the prize

Lay you burdens down

By the riverside

Ain’t no wrong or no right, just a blessing of the lesson

Clear your path, sing your song, nice and strong and amplifying

Be new, put your past behind you and be you, authentically you

So be new, put your past behind you and be you, authentically you

You got to be brand new

Oh, authentically you, yes, you got to be new

There ain’t no wrong and no right

Just a blessing in the lesson

Clear your path, sing your song

Nice and strong and amplifying

Be you, you, you got to be you

Authentically you, yeah

Be you, man, you got to be

Authentically you

I said you got to be you

Yes, you got to be you

You got to be, you got to be

You got to be you

I said that you got to be you

You got to be you, better you got

Better you got to be, got to be

Got to be you
