This Is Us (feat. Ursula Rucker & Oveous) [Roots Mix] - Elements of Life

I think it's time for all of us to Relieve and release All pressures Pressing down, on our peace It's time, for all of us to Take hold, of our own souls Then let 'em fly, let 'em flow Let 'em go 'Cause the more we free The less weight we carry Did you hear me? I think it's time for all of us to Relive and release All pressures Pressing down, on our peace It's time, for all of us to Take hold, of our own souls Then let 'em fly, let 'em flow Let 'em go 'Cause the more we free The less weight we carry Did you hear me? Did you hear me? (repeated)

The look on your face It could never explain your heart And the touch of my lips It could never tell you my thoughts And you want me to change (I can't get used to) That I can't get used to all you want me to be I just can't pretend (to be anyone else) To be anyone else, 'cause it's not really me This is my world, this is who I am And I'm not gonna give up myself to make your life better She says, "This is how it is?" I got my own life to live And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go) And if it's love that we share Then we can withstand all the obstacles that life brings forth And I will receive you For who you are, who you were and baby, who you will be But you want me to change (I can't get used to) Still, I can't get used to all you want me to be And I just can't pretend (to be anyone else) To be anyone else, oh, 'cause it's not really me This is my world, this is who I am And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better Now (she says), "This is how it is?" I got my own life to live And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go) Baby, this is my world, this is who I am And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better Oh, (she says), "This is how (it is)?" I got my own life to live And you can either accept me or baby, let me go You said, "I promise you the stars" And I'm givin' you all I can now, you said love is not enough And I know (and I know) you will see (you will see) If your life turns around in my heart, there is room for you It's me and my world, this is who I am And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better She says, "This is how (it is)?" I got my life (life to live) And you can either accept me or (baby, let me go) Baby, this is my world, (this is) who I am And I'm not tryin' to give up myself to make your life better Now, (she says), "Oh, this is how (it is)?" And I got my life (life to live) And you can either accept me or baby, let me go (baby, let me go) This is my world, my world (la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la) Baby, let me go (baby, let me go) Oh, this is who I am, where I live (la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la, la-la) Got my own life to live, oh, oh (la-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la) (This is) my world I'm not tryin' to change you, hmm This is who I am Please let me be

Got a million reasons to run and hide I don't blame you for being scared (for being scared, no) 'Bout a novel long, all the pain that he caused you Baby I'm fully aware (I'm fully aware) If I could change the story's ending to me and you Don't know the meaning of pretending what to do I could be the one Give you all my love Forget what he has done to you I'm here now Open up to me Love will set you free If ever you believed Please believe in me This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us I know everything isn't meant to last Box up all the photographs You're moving on (yeah) I could flip back over that hour glass And refill the better half (the better half) And it's a miracle How broken hearts can mend Want you dry up all those teardrops and start again I could be the one Give you all my love Forget what he has done to you I'm here now Open up to me Love will set you free If ever you believed Please believe in me This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us If I could show you There's no risk of being left alone Would you let your past go I'll take it slow 'Cause there's no need to rush when I know I could be the one Give you all my love Forget what he has done to you I'm here now Open up to me Love will set you free If ever you believed Please believe in me This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us This is us This is us This is us This is love This is love Let the world know baby This is us

SONG OF THE FREE We walked in darkness now seeing great light Out of the shadows into your sunshine Joy has began great celebrations Joining one-voice worshiping nation Chains I was bound now have been broken Doors that were shut have been flung wide open Joy has began great celebration Joining one-voice worshiping nation This is a song a song of free We sing hosanna We've been redeemed cause our humble king... Has shown us compassion Chains I was bound now have been broken Doors that were shut have been flung wide open Joy has began great celebration Joining one-voice worshiping nation This is a song a song of free We sing hosanna We've been redeemed cause our humble king... Has shown us compassion So we fall to our knees... Throw up our hands... Cry to the lamb that was slain We say You are worthy of all the praise you are, you are (repeat 4 times) By Austin Yehudi Baruch Phiri
