Mighty River - Mary J. Blige

Written by：Taura Stinson/Mary J. Blige/Raphael Saadiq

Life is a teacher time is a healer

And I'm a believer like a river wild

Ego's a killer greed is a monster

But love is stronger stronger than them all

White flag in hand I don't wanna fight

No lines in the sand I'm on your side

Invisible no colour life

It's time we put our put our put our differences aside

Time tells no lies

It keeps changing and ticking and moving then passes by

But if you're lucky it will be kind

Like a river flowing through time

Like a river let it wash you clean

Mighty river going up stream

Like a river cutting through right

Mighty river 'cause it never gives up

Like a river so full of life

Mighty river liquid like time

Like a river let it wash away

Mighty river the pain from yesterday

Love is the answer hate is a cancer

Hope of forgiveness it waters the soul

Our blood is red we're not so different

'Cause underneath our skin we're identical

White flag in hand we're not gonna fight

No lines in the sand I'm on your side

Invisible no colour life oh

It's time we put our oh put our differences aside

We know wrong from right

Oh time tells no lies

He keeps changing and ticking and moving then passes by

But if you're lucky it will be kind

Oh like a river flowing through time oh

Like a river let it wash you clean

Mighty river going up stream

Like a river cutting through right

Mighty river 'cause it never gives up

Like a river so full of life

Mighty river liquid like time

Like a river let it wash away

Mighty river the pain from yesterday

Like a river oh oh oh

Mighty river rain down on me

Like a river all it takes is time

Mighty river to heal this bloodline

Like a river better wash me clean

Mighty river get this dirt off of me yeah
