I walk with dignity, I step with pride
Learn to love yourself it's a great, great feeling
'Cause I ain't moving from my face, from my race, from my history
'Cause I ain't moving from my face, from my race, from my history
Why should I hide? Why should I be ashamed?
Momma said be brave, you've nothing to fear and I, ooh
Time's much too short to be livin', somebody else's life
I walk with dignity, I step with pride
I ain't movin', got my feet on the ground, hey
A foolish man keeps talking, never is he heard, no no no no
'Cause I ain't moving from my face, from my race, from my history
A wise man is clever, seldom ever speaks a word
'Cause I ain't moving from my face, from my race, from my history
Time's much too short to be livin', somebody else's life
If we learn to love ourself we'll have great, great feeling
I will be your remedy, I will be your tree
And loving self can be so hard, honesty can be demanding
When you're down baby, I will set you free
Then why am I faced with so much anger, so my pain?
I ain't movin' 'cause I want more
And loving self can be so hard, honesty can be demanding
Future voices need to be heard
I ain't movin' from my love, my peaceful dove, means too much to me
'Cause I ain't movin', I've been here long before
Eyebrows are always older than the beards
I ain't movin' from my love, my peaceful dove, means too much to me
I ain't movin' from my love, my peaceful dove, means too much to me
I ain't movin' from my love, my peaceful dove, means too much to me
I walk with dignity, I step with pride
Time's too lonely, too lonely without words
Time's much too short to be livin', somebody else's life
Learn to love yourself it's a great, great feeling
And loving self can be so hard, honesty can be demanding
Learn to love yourself it's a great, great feeling
And loving self can be so hard, honesty can be demanding
