"Chance" lyrics - MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO

MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO
"Chance"
(Chris Bruce / Meshell Ndegeocello / Deantoni Parks)

Everyone's sure to tell you
Get what you're owed
Back to the drawing board
But all my stories seem cold
The good life
It's the medication
I only have one gift
Sing and play my song
I have to wonder

[Chorus:]
Take a chance
If not for love then I have to refuse it
Take a chance
No way to win if there's no way to lose it
Take a chance
If not for love
Take a chance

My mind went on without me [?]
Leave all logic behind
Can't see the forest
Just the trees inside
It's here now
Comes in on the air
And the verse now
Once, twice
I have to wonder

[Chorus:]
Take a chance
If not for love then I have to refuse it
Take a chance
No way to win if there's no way to lose it
Take a chance
If not for love
Take a chance
No way to win if there's no way to lose it

[Outro:]
The good life
It's the medication
