Lauryn Hill - Everything Is Everything

Everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually (2x) I wrote these words for everyone Who struggles in their youth Who wont accept deception Instead of what is truth It seems we lose the game, Before we even start to play Who made these rules? were so confused Easily led astray Let me tell ya that Everything is everything Everything is everything After winter, must come spring Everything is everything I philosophy Possibly speak tongues Beat drum, abyssinian, street baptist Rap this in fine linen From the beginning My practice extending across the atlas I begat this Flippin in the ghetto on a dirty mattress You cant match this rapper / actress More powerful than two cleopatras Bomb graffiti on the tomb of nefertiti Mcs aint ready to take it to the serengeti My rhymes is heavy like the mind of sister betty L. boogie spars with stars and constellations Then came down for a little conversation Adjacent to the king, fear no human being Roll with cherubims to nassau coliseum Now hear this mixture Where hip hop meets scripture Develop a negative into a positive picture Now, everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually Sometimes it seems Well touch that dream But things come slow or not at all And the ones on top, wont make it stop So convinced that they might fall Lets love ourselves then we cant fail To make a better situation Tomorrow, our seeds will grow All we need is dedication Let me tell ya that, Everything is everything Everything is everything After winter, must come spring Everything is everything Everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually
