[Verse 1: Brandy]
Deep inside of me
Those little words
Back from my way we strayed
And me you took
Oh, oh whoa
Why don't you let me be free?

[Verse 2: Queen Latifah]
The day to day pushing me
Closer to the streets
And oh, whoa oh
Why won't you let me be free?

[Chorus: Queen Latifah & Brandy]
I'm tired of this mountain breaking my soul
Losing control
I'm so alone
Throw me a rope, so I can hold on
Can I be strong?
Only God knows
Oh-oh-oh-only God knows

[Post-Chorus: Queen Latifah & Brandy]
Save me, somebody save me
Can you hear me, oh save me
[Verse 3: Queen Latifah & Brandy]
Feel like I've been underwater, losing my life
No one knows my struggles
Oh-oh-oh-only God knows

[Outro: Queen Latifah & Brandy]
I can't go back (no more)
No more (no more)
I've come too far (no more)
To go back now (no more)
No more (no more)
No more (no more)
Not going under (no more)
I'm staying right here (no more)
Oh-whoa (no more)
Oh-oh-oh (no more)
No more (no more)
No more (no more)
No more (no more)
No more (no more)
I will be strong (no more)
I will hold on (no more)
