Spirit Indestructible

Nelly Furtado · Spirit Indestructible [2012]

Through my one square foot window I see outside

I have chains on my feet, but not in my mind

I'll be dancing all day see the sun outside

Don't know how long it will be

Can't stop me



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that loving was made for

A body that's a miracle



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that was made pure

Unbreakable and that's for sure

Unshakeable, so give me more



Through my tired eyes I phase out the rain

With a meditation, I erased my pains

There's a rythym flowing through every vein

And the melody is never ending



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that loving was made for

A body that's a miracle



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that was made pure

Unbreakable and that's for sure

Unshakeable, so give me more



A-E-I-O-U



And though they may, and though they may

Take you away, take you away

You'll never break, you'll never break

Break



And though they may, though they may

Take you away, take you away

They'll never break, they'll never break

You



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that loving was made for

A body that's a miracle



I have a spirit indestructible

A heart that was made pure

Unbreakable and that's for sure

Unshakeable, so give me more
