Lauryn Hill Selah Lyrics

Selah Lyrics

Nothing can be done against the truth 

No matter how we remain in denial


Wasting time, replacing time with each and every excuse 

But that will
only work a little while 

Coping with despair 

Knowing you're not there


Ashamed to just admit I've been a fool 

So I blame it on the sun


Run away from everyone 

Hoping to escape this ridicule 

Trapped in
misery 

Wrapped so miserably 

And his deception I wear it like a skin




Dying to maintain 

While I keep trying to explain 

A heart
that never loved me to begin with 

Oh I'm such a mess 

I have no choice
but to confess 

That I have been desperately trying to belong 

Lying to
myself and everybody else 

Refusing to admit my right was wrong




And then he came, Selah 

And it means praise and meditation


And then he came, Selah 

And it means did you think about that




And then he came, Selah 

And it means praise and meditation


And then he came, Selah 

And it means that you see 



How
beautiful his fruits still in denial of its roots 

My guilty heart behaves
so foolishly 

This treason from within that reasons with my sin 

Won't
be happy till it sees the death of me 

Selfishly addicted to a life that I
depicted 

Conflicted cuz its not reality 

All that's left of me 

Oh
I beg you desperately 

Cause me to agree for what I know is best for me


Please save me from myself 

I need to save me from myself 

Please
save me from myself 

Please save me from myself so I can hear you




The choices that I make have been nothing but mistakes 

What a
waste of useless space 

Should I die before I wake 

And all of my
religion 

I've fortified this prison 

Obligated to obey, that the man's
bad decision 

Please save me from myself 

I need you to save me from
myself 

Please save me from myself 

Please save me from myself so I can
hear you 



And then he came, Selah 

And it means praise and
meditation 

And then he came, Selah 

And it means did you think about
that 

And he came, Selah 

And it means meditation 

And then he
came, Selah 

And it means that it's you 



And then it came 

And
then he came and he came and he came 

And then he 

And then he came
