Note to Self

Well, in comes the one called Ms. Gia Yee
From way across the sea
With a musical thing to make you jump and sing

My song is a reminder
A verbal note to self
Melody set in motion
To coax me through my doubt

A song that's sung for freedom (a song, a song, a song)
From a life left up to chance
It's sung to set a good vibration
That begs my soul to dance

So, I'll forgive myself, I'll forgive you too
Give myself a break and give one to you
Leave the dust behind me, look ahead, and do (we gotta do it)
Do the best I can and to Jah and self be true (we got to be true)

I only knew what I knew
A domesticated view
Reacting from my vantage point
And didn't question who

Had the real true answer
Had what I was seeking
Until I looked to Jah (look upon to Jah)
Who had me in His keeping

So, I'll forgive myself, I'll forgive you too
Give myself a break and I'll give one to you
Leave the dust behind me, look ahead, and do (we gotta do it)
Do the best I can and to Jah and self be true (we got to be true)

You got to be true, yeah

Life's broken pieces scattered
Fragmented from the start
Can be put back together (pick up the pieces)
It's a chosen kind of art (put them together)

Though my heart's been broken
A hundred different ways (broken)
I know in Jah there's hope
With each of His new days (look upon to Jah)

So, I'll forgive myself, I'll forgive you too
Give myself a break and I'll give one to you
Leave the dust behind me, look ahead, and do (we gotta do it)
Do the best I can and to Jah and self be true (we got to be true)

My song is a reminder
A note to self
