Slowly Surely
Embracing Liberation: Jill Scott's Journey from Tainted Love
Lyrics
Slowly, surely I walk away from
Slowly, surely I distance myself from
That old desperate and tainted love
An old, desperate, and tainted love
Caught up in the maze of love, the crazy craze of love
Caught up in the confusing and erratic nature of love, the craziness of love
Thought it was good
Initially believed it was good
Thought it was real
Initially believed it was real
Thought it was
Initially believed it was
But it wasn't love
Realizing it wasn't genuine love
I just don't know where I should go
Uncertain about the direction to take
So, slowly, surely
So, gradually and surely
I walk away from self-serving, undeserving, constantly hurting me love
Stepping away from self-serving, undeserving, consistently hurting love
Deserting me love
Abandoning love that deserts and hurts
You said
Communication
I said
More communication
We said, but
Collective communication, but
Slowly, surely I walk away from
Gradually and surely moving away from
Confusing love, misusing love, abusing love
Love that is confusing, misusing, and abusing
This can't be
Expressing doubt that this is love
Slowly, surely I walk away from
Gradually and surely moving away from
Self-serving, undeserving
Self-serving, undeserving love
Constantly hurting me love
Love that constantly hurts
I just don't know where I should go, no
Uncertain about the path to take
I just don't know, know, know, know where I should go
Uncertain about the direction to go
So, slowly, surely I walk away from
So, gradually and surely
That old desperate and dazed love
Moving away from old, desperate, and dazed love
Caught up in the maze of love, the crazy craze of love
Caught in the confusing and crazy craze of love
Thought it was good
Initially thought it was good
Thought it was real
Initially thought it was real
Thought it was
Initially thought it was
But it wasn't love
Realizing it wasn't love
I just don't know where to go
Uncertain about where to go
So, slowly, surely I walk away from
So, gradually and surely
I walk away from
Stepping away from
Slowly, surely I walk away from love
Gradually and surely moving away from love
Slowly, surely one step at a time, but surely
Slowly, surely, one step at a time, but surely
I will pass the old love aside and love me
Putting aside the old love and choosing to love oneself
Slowly, surely I walk away from
Gradually and surely moving away from
Slowly, surely I walk away from desperate love
Gradually and surely moving away from desperate love
Caught up in the maze love, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy love
Caught in the maze of love, the crazy craze of love
Slowly, surely I walk away from
Gradually and surely moving away from
Slowly, surely I walk away from
-Slowly, surely I walk away from
-Slowly, surely I walk away from
-Slowly, surely I walk away from
-Slowly, surely I walk away from
-Slowly, Surely, slowly, surely, slowly, surely
Slowly and surely, repeating the process
