lyrics

I
I wish I was a blackbird
I would fly so high, fly so high
From these streets, another scenery
From the pain (the prison I pace)

I
I wish I was a rich man
I would give it all, give it all
Give it to the souls, to the souls
The souls who need the most (the strength to give)

Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the tools to never suffer fools
Gimme the strength to be me

I
I wish I was a healer
I would still the hearts, still the hearts
Of those who scream, scream inside
Screaming silently (I would offer peace)

I
I wish I was an angel
I would fly so high, fly so high
From this earth, from this wounded earth
Fly to another sky (flying to another world)

Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the means, to be all I can be
Gimme the strength to be me

The tides are rising
Serious times are coming
The tides are rising
Serious times are coming

(So hold on, prepare…)

Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the strength to be me
With these hands, make me all that I am
Gimme the strength to be me

Gimme the strength to be me
Gimme the strength to be me
The courage to know, the will to resolve
Gimme the strength to be me
To Be Me

Soulnaturals recommends:

Love Can't Be Borrowed
by The Sextones

A gorgeous, beautiful, timeless production sound, straight out of mid 60s Chicago or Detroit. Mark Sexton has a voice to die for, somewhere between Curtis Mayfield & Smokey Robinson, real Pop music. Soulnaturals
go to album
Square One
by Lack of Afro

This album is the sound of creative freedom, inventive, original, creatively restless, soulful with such a confident swagger. A big, fat, tight, funky party that sounds like it never wants to end.Bold Soulnaturals

Come Around and Love Me
by Jalen Ngonda

What a voice, high, tense, male&female, pure 70s Soul drama. Captures the spirit/style of Whats Going On and marries with lush, romantic soul pop hits. Rich production & arrangements with real depth. Soulnaturals
