The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill Lyrics

My world it moves so fast today
The past it seems so far away
And I squeeze it so tight, I can't breathe
And every time I try to be
What someone has thought of me
So caught up, I wasn't able to acheive
But deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
I look at my environment
And wonder where the fire went
What happened to everything we used to be
I hear so many cry for help
Searching outside of themselves
Now I know His strength is within me
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny
And deep in my heart the answer it was in me
And I made up my mind to find my own destiny

It's about letting go of your past,and moving forward. Regardless of what others expect from you; Being true to yourself and following your heart, as far as want you want out of life. When I hear this song, I truly hear the pain of letting go, and following your dreams, as you watch others struggle with finding themselves with all of life's distractions and struggles.
