Let Me Have My Feelings (feat. Pierce Freelon & Amelia Robinson)

I carry them with me

Everywhere I go

Running through my body (hahaha)

They're putting on the show (you're so funny, you're so funny, ha)

You can't always see them, (so invisible)

They work behind the scenes (just like a camera operator)

But they can take center stage when they're extreme

I've been told to manage (how's that working out for you?)

Keep them under control (is that what you're supposed to do?)

But they've got a mind of, a mind all of their own

If I try to stop them (don't do that, naw)

Or look the other way (you in trouble now)

They'll always come right back cuz they want to play

Some say that we can't have

Certain feelings, cuz they are bad. (But I wonder)

But I wonder (how can that be?)

How can that be? (when my feelings are a part of me)

When all these feelings are part of me?

They're a part of me (they will always be a part of me and that's how it's gonna be)

They're a part of me (they will always be a part of me and I like what I see)

So, let me have my anger (ready or not grrr)

Let me have my joy (hahaha)

Let me have my feelings (hey, how you feeling?)

Even though they may annoy you (if you're annoyed you can go away)

Let me have my sadness

Let my have my fear (oh my goodness gracious)

Let me have all the feels, cuz they are here.

Some say that we can't have

Certain feelings, cuz they are bad. (But I wonder, yes I wonder)

But I wonder (how can that be?)

How can that be? (when my feelings are a part of me)

When all these feelings are part of me? (yeah yeah yeah)

They're a part of me (they will always be a part of me and that's how it's gonna be)

They're a part of me (they will always be a part of me and I like what I see)

They're a part of me (ready or not grrr hahaha)

They're a part of me.
