Stacy Citron - Heaven Forbid Lyrics

When you skip a stone and you're on your own
But you can't face the coming tide
Are you brave enough to question what you know?
When the ripples fade and it's time to change
But there's fear in what you know
And you feel you have to go it all alone

Take a breath don't complicate
Think it's time to set you straight
I'm not coming for you
Girl I'm not your enemy

Heaven forbid we be on the same side
Heaven forbid we pretend like you try
You fight like a girl, I fight like a woman, but this war ain't with me
Heaven forbid we stand together and show them what we could be

Smiling like an angel with the devil's eyes
And you think that I don't know
But I've seen the likes of you ten thousand times
Someone lied to you and ignored your truth
Said that's the only way to survive
Well hath no fury let's see what happens when it multiplies

Heaven forbid we be on the same side
Heaven forbid we pretend like you try
You fight like a girl, I fight like a woman, but this war ain't with me
Heaven forbid we stand together and show them what we could be

Competition doesn't have to mean destruction
There's room at the table for both us

Take a breath don't complicate
I think it's time to set you straight
I'm not coming for you
Girl I'm not your enemy

Heaven forbid we be on the same side
Heaven forbid we pretend like you try
You fight like a girl, I fight like a woman, but this war ain't with me
Heaven forbid we stand together and show them what we could be

We show them what, we show them what, we show them what we could be
