Finally (From the Original Motion Picture “The Color Purple”)

We stand in need
Of our people
Jehovah Nissi
A manu vaka
We stand in need
Climb up with the crown of thorns
Jehovah needs all of us
We stand in need
I can see victory over the clouds
In need
Let go of misery holding me down
In need
I can go places where ain't no love allowed
In need
I was a tragedy, look at me now
Perfect timing
Now I'm shining
Now I blind them whenever I'm smiling
Oh
In need
Ain't no more hiding, now I'm living out loud
In need
What a sight to see, wow
It ain't no mystery
In need
I'm feeling me again
Oh
If you know my history, then you don't know who I am
Oh, no
It's a celebration, private conversation
Bye bye to hesitation, it's only elevation
And the sun don't rise till I walk in the room
I'm showing up for me finally
We stand in need
I'm taking care of me finally
Climb up with the crown of thorns
Yeah, I'm loving me finally, finally
Jehovah needs all of us
Finally, finally, finally
We stand- I'm showing up for me finally
In need
I'm saying yes to me finally
Climb up with the crown of thorns
Yeah, I'm loving me finally, finally
Jehovah needs all of us
Finally, finally, finally
We stand in need
Something's happening deep in my soul
In need
Things are working out, I can't control
In need
I'm giving grace to every flaw that I own
In need
What a sight to see, whoa
It ain't no mystery
All of us
I'm needing me for once
No
If you know my history, then you know how far I've come
Oh, no
It's a celebration, private conversation
Bye bye to hesitation, it's only elevation
And the sun don't rise till I walk in the room
I'm showing up for me finally
We stand in need
I'm taking care of me finally
Of our people
Yeah, I'm loving me finally, finally
Jehovah needs all of us
Finally, finally, finally
Manu vaka
I'm showing up for me finally
We stand in need
I'm saying yes to me finally
Climb up with the crown of thorns
No
Yeah, I'm loving me finally, finally
Jehovah needs all of us
Finally, finally, finally
We stand- Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh
All you motherfuckers shouldn't give me a chance, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
But if you ever need me I will...
We stand in need
Climb up with the crown of thorns
Jehovah needs all of us
We stand in- In need
In need
In need
Manu vaka
Reach out for me
We stand in need
Climb up with the crown of thorns
All of us
Jehovah needs all of us
We stand in need
