Heart That Didn'T Break Apart Part 2

Yet, we still walk with a somewhat positive approach in life 
Oooh…I tried to follow my heart
However, things did sortah go downhill for us…
But God… how did we deal with such strife?
Oooh… at least it didn’t break apart
It didn’t break apart
Oh…it didn’t break apart
Yet, we still drive on with this undying life
Oooh…I tried to build up self esteem 
However, things got out of hand… how did we deal with such strife?
Oooh… at least it didn’t break apart…I didn’t even scream 
I didn’t even scream
I didn’t even scream
Just stay calm, sister…
It’s okay to cry…
We all do it…
But, I don’t know exactly…why… 

Yet, we still move on with this extremely uncanny life
Oooh…I tried to follow my heart
However, things got out of hand… how did we deal with such strife?
Oooh… at least it didn’t break apart
It didn’t break apart
Oh…it didn’t break apart
Thank God it didn’t break apart

Yet, we still work out our problems
Oooh…I tried to follow my heart
Just keep on pushing that heavy cart
But, don’t lose touch with hope – 
God will lead us to the Promise Land…
God will answer our little prayers
Oooh… God hears us out…
No doubt…
No doubt…
We were a puzzle, left undone
Life is what you call a whole lot of fun…
But, look to God and you won’t feel so bad
I bet there are so many people out there 
That aren’t man enough to say that they feel rather sad

But, I have a heart
That didn't break apart

If only you could listen...
Perhaps, you'll gain some insight
Seek first God's light
Instead of Satan's night
