The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
From a place that had no meaning From the wilderness of time To the land of new beginning Starting with a new design Never doubted for a second That I'd do it on my own And I held onto my corner Trusted in the things I know You will never feel How good it is to love me Rather than control me I don't need the world weighing down my shoulders But that's all over here I am [Chorus] I made it back From a place called nowhere I made it back To do this once again I made it back From a place called nowhere I made it back Once again I made it back Got a chance to fix up neatly Set it off and not too late Saw the light and walked towards it I'm the master of my late Coming up just wasn't easy It took all the strength I had Now I'm ready for the action Mamma got a brand nu bag You will never feel How good it is to love me Rather than control me I don't need the world weighing down my shoulders But that's all over here I am [Chorus: x 2] Flava, flava, flava Brand new flava, flava flava
