    Lyrics:
    All you folks think you own my life
    But you never made any sacrifice
    Demons they are on my trail
    I'm standing at the crossroads of the hell
    I look to the left I look to the right
    There're hands that grab me on every side
    Mmh, mmh
    Mmh, mmh
    All you folks think I got my price
    At which I'll sell all that is mine
    You think money rules when all else fails
    Go sell your soul and keep your shell
    I'm trying to protect what I keep inside
    All the reasons why I live my life
    Mmh, mmh
    Mmh, mmh
    Some say the devil be a mystical thing
    I say the devil he a walking man
    He a fool he a liar conjurer and a thief
    He try to tell you what you want
    Try to tell you what you need
    Mmh, mmh
    Mmh, mmh
    Standing at the point
    The road it cross you down
    What is at your back
    Which way do you turn
    Who will come to find you first
    Your devils or your gods
    Mmh
    All you folks think you run my life
    Say I should be willing to compromise
    I say all you demons go back to hell
    I'll save my soul, save myself
    Mmh, mmh
    Mmh, mmh
    Save my soul, save myself
    Save my soul, save myself
    Save my soul, save myself
    Save my soul, save myself

      this song has stuck with me throughout my years...losses, pains , tribulations and hardships...i could always somehow sing this song and the words would ring true, no matter what i was going through....not many songs, ( or anything for that matter ) can do that...have that power to transcend....i am happy to have known this artist and her song from the beginning...and hope to remember them..at the end......

    I grew up listening to Tracy Chapman. We weren’t allowed to watch tv in my house but there was always music… always. I spent so many nights growing up laying in my bed crying praying for God to save me. To change my life and take me out of the situation I was in and listening to songs from Tracy pour through the house. I didn’t know it then but God was helping me through the music. I wouldn’t have made it without it

    I first heard Tracy Chapmen while repainting the youth leaders living room. She had this album on CD. I learnt so much from her messages, like what it means to put soul in your perspective. To know the real value of whats pure and true in this world. To see through facades in others. To know dignity comes from within.
