Mine lyrics
by R. Kelly
[Verse 1]
When it went down
It was so hard to breathe
I gave up everything
In a slow fall down to the floor
Life was escaping me
I couldn't find myself
'Til it was all lost
Not anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm holding on to all the pieces of my heart's debris
'Til it's time
I'll, I'll pull it together and fix myself eventually
And know it's mine
[Chorus]
I found gold in the wreckage, put it on a necklace
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
I wear it like a message, so I don't forget it
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
[Post-Chorus]
I know that it's mine no matter what I do
I know that it's mine whether I win or lose
And even though my heart needs to take its time
I know that it's mine, I know that it's mine
[Verse 2]
Facing the change
But it's still tough to see
At first, I fought it all
I was so mean
I'm still unsure
How it's supposed to be
But taking every day now by the skin of my teeth
Until I learn
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm holding on to all the pieces of my heart's debris
'Til it's time
I'll, I'll pull it together and fix myself eventually
And know it's mine
[Chorus]
I found gold in the wreckage, put it on a necklace
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
I wear it like a message, so I don't forget it
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
[Post-Chorus]
I know that it's mine no matter what I do
I know that it's mine whether I win or lose
And even though my heart needs to take its time
I know that it's mine, I know that it's mine
[Chorus]
I found gold in the wreckage, put it on a necklace
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
I wear it like a message, so I don't forget it
Keepin' it 'cause I, I, I, I know that it's mine
[Post-Chorus]
I know that it's mine no matter what I do
I know that it's mine whether I win or lose
And even though my heart needs to take its time
I know that it's mine, I know that it's mine
