Carla Vanessa

(Verse 1)
I feel the sun
I feel the rain
I see the sky
What a beautiful frame
I feel good
I feel sane
But nobody told me about the pain
I made a choice to walk in my shoes
And let everything loose
Letting go of my bruise
What a difficult move

Chorus
Realizing all I need is me, is higher…
Detaching from all the bleed, is power…
Gotta figure out how not to get sour
Cuz I need myself, but I also need flowers

(verse 2)
I love that I’m in my space now
But somehow…
I feel that it is ok now
To let someone in now
Cuz I got the know-how



(verse 3)
I’m proud of my journey
I needed to detach to know how to touch
And now,
I’m not going for much
I’m just ready to start over
And feel my face in the blush


Chorus
Realizing all I need is me, is higher…
Detaching from all the bleed, is power…
Gotta figure out how not to get sour
Cuz I need myself, but I also need flowers

Love is what you feel, not what you have
Is what you feel inside of you
Is what you pour from you
The other end is a consequence
A consequence of a romance, that begins with yourself.
The other end,
you don´t need it to make it real
It´s real from the moment that you feel

(chorus)
You don´t need to be here for me to love you
I don´t have to touch you to care for you
I love me, that’s why I love you
It´s like admiring a star
I can love you from afar

It doesn´t have to be perfect
But it shouldn´t hurt
It doesn´t have to have an explanation
But we ain´t here for aggression
The beauty I see in you
Is thru the lens of my soul
So, I won´t hold
On to a damaged bond
If you don´t correspond


(chorus)
You don´t need to be here for me to love you
I don´t have to touch you to care for you
I love me, that’s why I love you
It´s like admiring a star
I can love you from afar

I love you
But I must be fair to myself
I love you
But I´ll fall in love with me before I love somebody else
I love you
But I can´t stick to the unhealthy perfection
I love you
But I rather do me then serve as a deception

(chorus)
You don´t need to be here for me to love you
(You don’t have to stay here as a favor…)
I don´t have to touch you to care for you
(For then to charge me later…)
I love me, that’s why I love you
(I am my self-love creator…)
It´s like admiring a star
(You can distance yourself from the traitor…)
I can love you from afar
(Selflove requires a gladiator…)

I’m feeling sexy
I’m getting’ in touch with myself
I’m here there’s nobody else
Just me and feeling so well

Getting ready
Date night with spirit and soul
Soul jams and sipping the old
Get lost in beautiful thoughts, that I got, why do not?

(Bridge)
I know what I got is something special
Love is love when it is without the wrestle
It’s time for me to begin, I finely figured my pin

Chorus
Loving myself and feeling all good,
Rewarding myself eating soul food,
I wanna stay forever in this mood,
Losing my phone, no room for you,
TV is off, ain´t got time for no news
Just wanna stay forever in this mood

Diving deep and bringing up them all potential
Improving them all essentials
That´s gonna take me to another dimension
Giving me all that I deserve,
It´s no waste…
It´s called investment I heard

(Bridge)
I know what I got is something special
Love is love when it is without the wrestle
It’s time for me to begin, I finely figured my pin

Chorus
Loving myself and feeling all good,
Rewarding myself eating soul food,
I wanna stay forever in this mood,
Losing my phone, no room for you,
TV is off, ain´t got time for no news
Just wanna stay forever in this mood

I thought I knew It
I thought I’ve seen it all
Was no conclusion
Nothing seemed so small

I looked at me and I thought I was there
But there was only what been left to share
And I didn’t care!
I cared more for what I wanted, I swear!

Chorus
I thought, I thought I was under control
Cuz when I see it, I was seeing my soul
I thought, I thought I was under control
It was never what I have been told
I thought, I thought I was under control
You only see the other side of the road
I thought, I thought I was under control
Cuz I didn’t wanna check me no!

Now that I know it!
What amma gonna do with it?
The way that It show it!
Dunno how to work with it!
We can pretend that everything is fine
It’s your choice…
What you carry, what you leave behind
Can even tell this shit is not mine
But you’ll know what is there at the back of you simile.

Chorus
I thought, I thought I was under control
Cuz when I see it, I was seeing my soul
I thought, I thought I was under control
It was never what I have been told
I thought, I thought I was under control
You only see the other side of the road
I thought, I thought I was under control
Cuz I didn’t wanna check me no!

(Verse 1)
Beautiful and bold
Smart and tough
Outspoken!
Is it that what you call a little bird?
Colorful, flying high…
Just the way it should be
The way I was feeling inside of me
The shining sun was so bright
The ideas in my mind were alright
I didn’t have much
But I owned everything I had
I didn’t talk much
But I owned everything I said

(Verse 2)
Inside the bird lived the insecure
Boldness was a cover
Toughness was defense
Ohhh I was smart too
But smart for who?
When you don’t even get to decide what to do
I still could see the bright
But no longer could feel it right
The two of me started clashing
And we started detaching
I tried to hold on
But didn’t know
who was really here
for so long

Verse 3
Now that I see me from outside
I know what it is
I feel you, I got you, I forgive you
I love you, I hold you, neva let go of you
I’ll protect you
and
neva let nothing
happened to you

(Verse 4)
You have me now
Don’t be afraid
You have me now
I’ll keep you safe
You have me now
I’m sorry I was late
You have me now
You don’t have to cry
You have me now
We still can fly
You have me now
Whateva it is
You have me now
We still can be

You tell me I don’t know what I’m doing
You tell me I’ve got it all
You say to me, why do you wanna leave
You are acting so small

You tell me I don’t know what life is all about
When you never even stop to hair me out
That I’m dreaming about something that doesn’t exist
Because it wasn’t you whose plans has been dismissed

You say I’m taking it for granted
Because it doesn’t work with your standards
You are losing your senses, you say
Because it doesn’t suit your way

But, do you know who I am?
Or is it even worth to understand?
Do you love me?
Or do you love what you want me to be?



(Chorus 2vx)
I need to feel free
I need myself not to doubt on me
I need the space to own my mistakes
And not to run out of place
I need to be free
I need myself to count on me
I’m giving up on everything, for better things!
I’m giving up on everything for better things!




(2nd verse)
You tell me
I need my feet on the ground,
And to stop looking on what’s around,
To focus on what’s best for me,
Don’t be fooled by what I see,

Maybe the problem is into-me-see…
Maybe there is no problem wanna be…
Maybe I wasn’t made for this shittt!!!
The sooner we shift…
We’ll learn to forgive
(Chorus repeat until the end)
I need to feel free
I need myself not to doubt on me
I need the space to own my mistakes
And not to run out of place
I need to be free
I need myself to count on me
I’m giving up on everything, for better things!
I’m giving up on everything for better things!

There is someone you know, who is in there for sure
Only you can show, show who wins here for sure
Don’t let it go… Go there and open the door
Not only one door, there will be layers for sure
Something is blocking you to reach the person you know
Be the releaser of who can be in control


(chorus)
Freedom is inside of you
Prison is your brain
There’s nothing you can’t hide from you
Unless you are committed to pain
Freedom is inside of you nothing is outside of you
All you gotto do is dive down the lane


The world outside has the time of their own
The rules, the deeds and don’ts
It’s a set up! It’s a trap!
You don’t need to follow all that
Go there and open the door
Something is blocking you to reach the person you know
Be the releaser of who can be in control


(chorus)
Freedom is inside of you
Prison is your brain
There’s nothing you can’t hide from you
Unless you are committed to pain
Freedom is inside of you nothing is outside of you
All you gotto do is dive down the lane


When you are afraid it is conscious
When you are hurt it is real
When you’re feeling it’s true
Can’t they overdo
Something is blocking you to reach the person you know
Be the releaser of who can be in control


(chorus)
Freedom is inside of you
Prison is your brain
There’s nothing you can’t hide from you
Unless you are committed to pain
Freedom is inside of you nothing is outside of you
All you gotto do is dive down the lane

Sista!! What you thinking!?!
Be thankful, your body generates lives.
Sista what you saying!?!
You live the WOMAN struggle and still can be bright.
Sista what you doing!?!
You can be whatever you want without having to turn out the light…


(Chorus)
Sista! “WE” beautiful, which means “YOU and I”.
The world is afraid of US, don’t be afraid to fly!
We bond, get along, sing a song…
Sista our worth is neva too high!
We are the ones that makes it die.


Why can’t we learn from this?
Why can’t you even throw me a kiss?
Oppress, neglect, suppress… The way we are, do and dress,
This is a mess!
And you’re not taking time to guess
Whom to address!

Let’s stick together no matter where we from
Otherwise, they’ll never recognize we awesome
WE need Me and YOU, let’s make our dreams come true…
Believe in your self and allow me to do so too.


(Chorus 2 times)
Sista! “WE” beautiful, which means “YOU and I”.
The world is afraid of US, don’t be afraid to fly!
We bond, get along, sing a song…
Sista our worth is neva too high!
We are the ones that makes it die.


My shine is your shine!!
Even if I speak Portuguese and you Javanese…
Your pride is my pride!!
When you dancing overseas yehh…
Whatever you see in me! Is the reflection of you!!
So if you’re good, I’m good too!!




(Chorus to the end)
Sista! “WE” beautiful, which means “YOU and I”.
The world is afraid of US, don’t be afraid to fly!
We bond, get along, sing a song…
Sista our worth is neva too high!
We are the ones that makes it die.
