07:26Hey, y'all.
07:27How y'all doing?
07:28I'm looking down.
07:29This is beautiful.
07:33We're so grateful to be here.
07:37This isn't our first time, but...
07:39It's our first time on the bill.
07:41Absolutely.
07:42And it's always a blessing to be able to touch the stage and touch so many lives.
07:47Yes.
07:47Well, I'm Kasey.
07:51And I'm Stacy.
07:52And I'm Stacey.
07:53And I'm Tam.
07:54And we are the Shindellas.
07:58And we are accompanied by the legendary Chuck Harmony today.
08:02All of the songs you're about to hear were composed by this gentleman right here and his partner, Claude Kelly, also known as Louis York.
08:12Yeah.
08:13Should we do it?
08:13I'll tell you what freedom is to me.
08:15No fear.
08:19I mean, really.
08:20No fear.
08:23If I could have that half of my life.
08:27No fear.
08:28A voice asked me, are you afraid?
08:36I said, yes.
08:38And they said, be not afraid.
08:44But when you tell your truth and when you live your truth, there is nothing to fear.
08:54Now, don't you stop at me.
08:56You ain't no part of me.
08:58So can you spot for me as you can say?
09:02Nothing but harmony.
09:03This is where I want to be.
09:05And you're distracting me.
09:07What's the name?
09:09Talking to myself when I say.
09:12Fear has no place in my heart.
09:16No fear.
09:19Fear has no place in my heart.
09:24You got to tell yourself.
09:26Fear has no place in my heart.
09:30Tell your fear, you don't know to hear.
09:34Fear has no place in my heart.
09:45It took some working out.
09:48It took some working down.
09:50Shadow will end it down.
09:52So I can make this woman I become.
09:55And here it's only up if there's peace and love.
09:59And set me free.
10:03Fear has no place in my heart.
10:08Fear has no place in my heart.
10:12Fear has no place in my heart.
10:14Fear has no place in my heart.
10:16Fear has no place in my heart.
10:18Fear has no place in my heart.
10:22I want you to run away.
10:24Fear has no place in my heart.
10:26Fear has no place in my heart.
10:30You know, Essence, we have a mantra that we'd like to share that is used to come out to
10:40be yourself without fear every day.
10:45All that you do is just bring me the blues and it's never a positive thing to say.
11:05Oh, get out my way.
11:07Cause I'm on a mission, don't mess with my vision, I'm doing my best to grow every day.
11:12So get out my way.
11:15All that you do is just bring me the blues and it's never a positive thing to say.
11:20Oh, get out my way.
11:22Cause I'm on a mission, don't mess with my vision, I'm doing my best to grow every day.
11:27So get out my way.
11:34So get out my way.
11:42So get out my way.
11:46Yeah.
11:47Fear has no place in my heart.
11:51Like you're feeling no fear.
11:54Fear has no place in my heart.
11:58You don't have to be afraid no more.
12:01Fear has no place in my heart.
12:05Stand up, say it louder.
12:09Fear has no place in my heart.
12:11In my mind
12:41All that you do is just lying with me, but I'm going to tell you that we're not afraid.
12:49Oh, get out my way.
12:51Because I'm on a mission, don't mess with my vision.
12:53I'm doing my best to grow every day.
12:56So get out my way.
12:59Hey, hey, hey.

13:16If you don't believe I deserve.
