Madonna: The Confessions Tour Live from London Page #2

Don't ever look back, oh, baby

Yes, I'm ready to jump

Just take my hand

get ready to jump

We learned out lesson from the

start, my sisters and me

The only thing you can depend on

is your family

Life's gonna drop you down

like a limb from a tree

It sways and it swings and

it bends until it makes you see

Are you ready to jump

Get ready to jump

Don't ever look back, oh, baby

Yes, I'm ready to jump

Just take my hand

get ready to... Oh, you ready!

I'll work and I'll fight till

I find a place of my own

It sways and it swings and it

bends until you make it your own

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

I can make it alone

My sisters and me

My sisters and me

My sisters and me

My sisters and me

Are you ready to jump

Get ready to jump

Don't ever look back, oh, baby

Yes, I'm ready to jump

Just take my hand

get ready to jump

Are you ready to jump

Get ready to jump

Don't ever look back, oh, baby

Yes, I'm ready to jump

Just take my hand

get ready to... Oh, you ready!

Oh, you ready!

Oh, you ready!

Oh, you ready!

Oh, you ready!

Are you ready to jump

Get ready to jump

Get ready to jump,

Get ready to jump, get ready to jump

Don't ever look back,

don't ever look...

Get ready to jump

[ Confessions ]

I have a tale to tell

I was three feet from the floor,

gasping for air,

trying to release my

father's hands from my throat.

I looked into his eyes and wondered

if my feet would

ever touch the floor again.

Have you ever been hit so hard

that it sends your body flying

across the room?

We all fall to the floor

at some point.

It's how you pick yourself up.

That's the real challenge.

Isn't it?

I've always lived

in my own world.

And I dance to escape

my troubles.

I've learned that there's

light even in the darkest places.

I can't blame my father

for anything.

You can't rely on other

people to make you happy.

But I know deep down inside,

he loved me.

There was a time

I suffered so much

I wanted to get it out of me.

I would cut my arms,

not to kill myself.

I don't want to die.

I know I am lucky to be

on this Earth.

I did it so the physical pain

would calm the pain that was

eating me inside.

Nothing was erased.

I leave with my past tucked away

deep inside of me.

It comes out

as an explosion and

it invades me.

I believe we are

messengers on Earth.

I believe in angels.

I am blessed by God to

tell myself I suffered that much

to become who I am today.

Now, you have to realize

not only do I have a family,

but now I have a whole hood.

And that's power.

But I ain't no grimey-ass nigga.
