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