My Power - Edie Brickell & New Bohemians

Everybody tried to tell me don’t do that

Keep it for yourself don’t give it to that man

I gave it all away I’m trying to get it back

My Power

My Power

My Power

My Power

Filling up my shelf with every self-help book

Listening to a lecture telling me I’m good

I know you didn’t mean it, but I think you took

My Power

My Power

My Power

My Power

Looking back on the whole thing

It felt like a bad dream

Curled up into a ball y’all

It took all

My Power

Everybody telling me that I’m a mess

Got to find a place where I can be myself

Meditate and elevate and re-access

My Power

My Power

My Power

My Power

Coming into my own now

I don’t feel so alone now now now

Coming back from a fall y’all

It takes all

My Power

Oh, they told me

You let him have way too much

And they told me

Get it back, get your stuff

And they told me

Go on, stand up!

And they told me

Go ahead, take it back

Take it back!

My Power

My Power

My Power
