A song from a talented lady with tragedy in her heart that I am taking as my motto

Kandi Burruss from The Real Housewives of Atlanta is grieving from the death of her ex-fiance A.J. Jewell. The song “Fly Above” was written about dealing with public criticism

“Fly Above:”

I’m so comfortable in the skin I’m in,
I’m secure about who I am,
so you go ahead and talk all you wanna,
I built up a shell and it’s hard and it’s armored.
It seems like every step I take up,
drama comes along with the bread I cake up.
But you aint doing nothin if you don’t have haters,
so I welcome you to do what’s in your nature.

I'm like a jet airplane,
way too high to hear you throwing salt on my name.
I know I’m not the only one
if people love to hate you
go and throw your hands up
go ahead and spread your wings
cuz you gotta fly above.

I fly above all the drama,
I I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me.
So I fly above all the haters,
I I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me

If everybody hatin’ cuz you fly-i-i,
then gon throw yo hands in the sky-i-i,
If people jealous cuz you live yo li-i-ife,
then gon throw yo hands in the sky-i-i,

see I aint even worried bout you and your insecurities,
the only thing that matters is my family and G.O.D.
I’m a shooting star but my feet still on the ground
and when you flying high people wanna shoot you down

I’m like a jet airplane,
I’m way too high to hear you throwing salt on my name.
I know I’m not the only one if people love to hate
You go and throw your hands up
go ahead and spread your wings
cuz you gotta fly above.

I fly above all the drama,
I I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
It’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me.
So I fly above all the haters,
I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me

All you haters (haters),
You’re the wind beneath my wings (wind beneath my wings),
you just make me fly higher (higher), higher (higher), higher,
oh you just make me fly higher, make me fly higher, make me fly higher

I’m like a jet airplane,
way too high to hear you throwing salt on my name.
I know I’m not the only one if people love to hate
you gon and throw your hands up
go ahead and spread your wings
cuz you gotta fly above.

I fly above all the drama,
I I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me.
So I fly above all the haters,
I I fly above, I I fly above, I I fly above,
it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me, it’s beneath me
