“I Get Out” by Lauryn Hill from MTV Unplugged. Amazing.
I won’t support your lie no more
I won’t even try no more
If I have to die, oh Lord
That’s how I choose to live
I won’t be compromised no more
I can’t be victimized no more
I just don’t sympathize no more
‘Cause now I understand
You just wanna use me
You say “love” then abuse me
You never thought you’d lose me
But how quickly we forget
That nothin’ is for certain
You thought I’d stay here hurtin’
Your guilt trip’s just not workin’
Repressin’ me to death
‘Cause now I’m choosin’ life, yo
I’ll take the sacrifice, yo
If everything must go, then go
That’s how I choose to live…
The only way to know
Is to walk then learn then grow
