"Overcome" lyrics

Laura Mvula Lyrics

"Overcome"
(feat. Nile Rodgers)

When your heart is broken down
And your head don't reach the sky
Take your broken wings and fly

When your head is heavy, low
And the tears they keep falling
Take your broken feet and run

With the world upon your shoulders
Nowhere left to hide
Keep your head up carry on

It ain't no time to die
Even though we suffer
Come together we pray

Round the mountain all God's children run
Round the mountain all God's children run
Round the mountain all God's children run
Round the mountain all God's children
God's children run run round the mountain run
Round the mountain all God's children
God's children run run round the mountain run
Round the mountain all God's children run
