Feeling Good
Nina Simone Lyrics
Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
And I'm feeling good
Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River running free, you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me
And I'm feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know?
Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean
And this old world, is a new world
And a bold world for me, yeah-yeah
Stars when you shine, you know how I feel
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me
I'm feeling good

The kicker is that she doesn't sound like she's feeling good. She sounds like she wants to feel good.

yeah cause the only possible powerful black woman is a sad one huh? smh spreading modern day racism
Brad Dotson
@Cara what a way to alienate your fellow music lovers. Keep your bullshit to yourself. This isn't a political video, nor is it a political song, nor does the song carry any racial undertones. You are not special regardless of what excuse you conjure up in your head. You are the same shitty human that everybody else is regardless of their skin color.
