Lyrics for Essence

I don't have to be specific when I wanna hug you You had a natural right to be born to become Yes having my small niece becomes acceptable to me I'd feel angry had I lost you And can't imagine where you might be Where do baby leaves go when they die Oh, why I do not mourn God is a feeling of loving yourself You're precious to me, you know that Stretch in your arms Wrap 'em 'round tight Loving myself With all my might Where do baby leaves go when they die Oh, why I do not mourn God is a feeling of loving yourself You're precious to me, you know that Take a look inside you'll see See how I'm doing A message, something says to me Tells me I'm right So you want a potion to send me away Daddy, my love, cannot get in today
