Текст песни Step Away - Bettye LaVette

Step Away

I been lied to, I been crossed\nI been put upon and damn near lost\nI been promised, I been fooled\nI been deprived, but I been schooled\nSo step away, take back your hand\nI’m the only body here who can shake this thing\nShake it I will 'til it all falls down\nI’m still standin' here\nWith my feet planted firmly on the ground\nI’m a mom, I was a child\nI was confused, I was almost sanctified\nI been sanctioned, I been harrowed\nI been revered and damn near swallowed\nStep away, take back your hand\nI’m the only body here who can shake this thing\nShake it I will, 'til it all falls down\nI’m still standin' here\nWith my feet planted firmly on the ground\nWas I gone too long?\nDid I come on too strong?\nDid I share too much?\nDid I not care enough?\nI’m just tryin', tryin'… To carry on
