Lauryn Hill - Repercussions Lyrics






I was born into this world
Little bitty baby girl
And when I look at why looking so glad
In a racist world
Now it’s a difficult process
The matter is of perception
When I look in the mirror what do I see
Is it my reflection?

[CHORUS:]
Seein' repercussions (talkin bout the things we do)
Ya need to know the repercussions (things can come right back to you)
Look at them repercussions (what goes around comes around)
Hey repercussions

See I was born into this
In another space in time
Time has moved on a death has grown closer
Surely has blown my mind (blown my mind)
Ain’t that a bitch...the way the world spins around (spins around spins around spins around)
Everything everything everything that I said and I did
Surely came back around

[CHORUS:]
See repercussions (talkin bout the things we do)
Repercussions (things sure can come back to you)
Yeah repercussions (what goes around comes around)
Yeah repercussions (they will get you down)

Repercussions (talkin bout the things we do)
Yeah Repercussions (things sure can come back to you)
Ya need to know that repercussions (what goes around comes around)
Repercussions (they will get you down)

    @Kiki Wilson This particular lyric has multiple layers... It talks about the overall racism that black folks experience from races of lighter skin color - as well as in the black race itself. Such as fair skin black folks being ridiculed by its own kind for not being black enough while darker skin black folks are ridiculed for being too black. We must reinforce the notion that all shades of black is beautiful.

    No idea why this was on my history but damn ill track major props

  38. C.... C....

    Wow... I just looked up Lauryn Hill (on Wikipedia as well) and saw that this song was/is to appear on her next studio album, so I decided to look it up here since it reportedly came out in 2010 as a single. Lauryn Hill does it again, she's still vocally magnificent and her CONTENT is second to none as she relays the most conscious of messages to her listeners. It APPEARS that the Most High heard the prayers of Lauryn's fan that she return to music... cuz music is in desperate need of her gifts.

  39. J.... C....

    voice hasnt changed in a decade! unreal love for her cant wait for the comeback

  40. N.... ....

    Best song of Lauryn ! Big up !

  41. b.... ....

    Lauryn Hill has aged a lot lately (although I wouldn't expect someone to have 5 kids and still look like they're 20).

  42. B.... E....

  48. B.... E....
