Ain't A Ceiling

Ain't A Ceiling
By Jill Scott

You say life's been hard on you. 
Well brother I got news; it's hard on me too. 
We seem to face the same old issues. 
Some are just surface, some are deep some deep down in the tissue. 
And I know slavery has played its part, word. 
Being separated and subjugated and that passes to the brain of a child 
So I want to step off what was, and start with the right now 
You say "the world just don't understand" 
But I ain't the world my love, I'm your woman. 
And I know how deep it really goes 
Trying to tread on a dream when the water feels low. 
Ohh, if our ancestors could walk, barefoot, afraid in the dark, for miles and miles... 
I know we can do this, come on let's start.
I wanna be real with you
I wanna get healed by you
I wanna grow up with you
I wanna be more with you
Be what’s in store for you
Open the doors for you
to a truer healing
Can you imagine the feeling
The sky ain’t a ceiling
At all
