Daphne Rubin-Vega - Life Isn't Fair lyrics

Can't you let go I know you mean well but it's time you know Time to give my wings I want to find my dreams As selfish as it seems Cause I don't belong To any person place or any thing And you can tell me I'm wrong In your closed reality There's no place left for me I know that it's not fair But when I die I will die with my pride Taking my chances on the voice from inside And when I get there There better not be one thing That I haven't tried You want love then be free To face the danger face it graciously I know the world can be cruel And make you feel a fool I'll share the pain with you I know that it's not fair Life isn't fair But when I die I will die with my pride Taking my chances on the voice from inside And when I get there There better not be one thing that I haven't tried God how I've tried to be what you had wanted me to be Cried please don't you cry I'm still the same girl Hold me and you'll see Maybe all that we need Is time to let it be For now we'll make believe I know that it's not fair Life isn't fair But when I die I will die with my pride Taking my chances On a voice from inside And when I get there There better not be one thing That I haven't tried And baby baby when I get there I need to know I got to know one thing That I haven't lied
