Mary J. Blige - Mighty River lyrics

Life is a teacher, time is a healer And I’m a believer like a river wild Ego’s a k**er, greed is a monster But love is stronger, stronger than them all White flag in hand I don’t want to 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 pa**es by But if you’re lucky it will be kind Like a river flowing through time (Like a river) Let it wash you clean (Like a river) Going up stream (Like a river) Cutting through [?] (Like a river) ‘Cause it never gives up (Like a river) So full of life (Like a river) [?] (Like a river) That’ll wash away (Like a 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 I’m not gonna fight No lines in the sand, I’m on your side Invisible, no colour life It’s time we put our, put our differences aside We know wrong from right Time tells no lies It keeps changing, and ticking, and moving, then pa**es by But if you’re lucky it will be kind Like a river flowing through time (Like a river) Let it wash you clean (Like a river) Going up stream (Like a river) Cutting through [?] (Like a river) ‘Cause it never gives up (Like a river) So full of life (Like a river) [?] (Like a river) That’ll wash away (Like a river) The pain from yesterday (Like a river) (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 (Like a river) (Mighty river) Let it wash you clean
