Lyrics for Song: Back To The Middle
Lyrics for Album: Acoustic Soul [2001]
She is twenty-five, spent over half of her life
So afraid to speak her mind, it's such a shame
Cause what a brilliant mind she has
[chorus]
And now that she's been introduced to confidence
She doesn't see, that she is bordering on arrogance
When will she learn to come back to the middle
He is a young black man, grew up without his father
And now it falls into his hands, to protect his mother
Cause if he doesn't, well then who will
His older brother lives in fear of everything
Especially, trying to fill his father's shoes
[chorus]
Respectively, they go to extremes, of masculine and feminine
Chasing dreams, but they keep on falling
Cause they don't know no balance
When will they learn to come back to the middle
You gotta take the good with the bad, and you might hit the wall
Sometimes you'll fly and sometimes you will fall
There ain't no way to avoid the pain
But it's getting burned, that's how you will learn
To come back to the middle
[chorus]
Needing to protect yourself, now that is just a part of life
If you let your fears keep you from flying
You will never reach your height
To get to the top, you must come back to the middle
When will we learn to come back to the middle
Come back to the middle, come back to the middle
Don't make no mind about falling down
Cause it's when you're in that valley
You can see both sides more clearly
Come back to the middle
