THE HEART OF THE MATTER by India Arie
I got the call today, I didn’t wanna hear
But I knew that it would come
An old true friend of ours was talkin’ on the phone
She said you found someone
And I thought of all the bad luck,
And all the struggles we went through
How I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside
love’s open doorMake us throw off our contentment
And beg for something more?
I’ve been learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know,
the less I understand
All the things I thought I knew,
I’m learning them again
I’ve been tryin’ to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it’s about forgiveness
Forgiveness Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore
These times are so uncertain
There’s a yearning undefined
And people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive in such a graceless age
And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They’re the very things we kill,
I guess Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work they put between us,
You know it doesn’t keep us warm
I’ve been trying to live without you now
But I miss you,
babyThe more I know,
the less I understand
And all the things I thought I figured out,
I have to learn again
I’ve been tryin’ to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my heart is so shattered
But I think it’s about forgiveness
Forgiveness Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore
All the people in your life who’ve come and gone
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride Better
put it all behind you; cause life goes onYou keep carrin’ that anger,
it’ll eat you up inside
I wanna be happily everafterAnd my heart is so shattered
But I know it’s about forgiveness
ForgivenessEven if,
even if you don’t love me anymore
I’ve been tryin’ to get down to the Heart
of the MatterBecause the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I’m thinkin’ about forgiveness
Forgiveness Even if you don’t love me anymore
Even if you don’t love me anymore
