Lauryn Hill

[Lauryn singing - Chorus]
Everything Is Everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually
(2x)
[Singing - Verse One]
I wrote these words for everyone who struggles in their youth
Who won't accept deception, in--instead of what is truth
It seems we lose the game
Before we even start to play
Who made these rules? (Who made these rules?)
We're so confused (We're so confused)
Easily led astray
Let me tell ya that...
[Chorus]
Everything Is Everything
Everything Is Everything
After winter, must come spring
Everything Is Everything
[Rapping - Verse Two]
I philosophy
Possibly speak tongues
Beat drum, Abyssinian, street Baptist
Rap this in fine linen, from the beginning
My practice extending across the atlas
I begat this
Flipping in the ghetto on a dirty mattress
You can't match this rapper slash actress
More powerful than two Cleopatras
Bomb graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti
