Please forgive me. If I appear unkind. But any fool can tell you. It's all in your mind. . Down in the meadow. The old lion stirs. Puts his hand 'cross his mouth.
I've been loving you a long time. Down all the years, down all the days. And I've cried for all your troubles. Smiled at your funny little ways. . We watched our friends grow up together.
It's Wednesday morning in Saint Paul. It's still tuesday night I didn't sleep at all. The sparrow and the city want to call out the changes. . And the river carries on.
The Lord told Noah. There's gonna be a floody, floody. The Lord told Noah. There's gonna be a floody, floody. Get those children out of the muddy, muddy, children of the Lord.
Oh I'm always as the right place at the wrong time. Trying to find the one woman I can call mine. Yes, I'm always as the right place at the wrong time.
Þurrka ég augun á. Byrja úppá nýtt. Vindi um klæðir í. Litir að en nú. Klippið að hárið á. Í lífi þetta af. Reysinú, aftur í. Lífið en þá um laugun alla lauf andi.
Hlustar á. Hjartað slá. Innanfrá. Brjóstkassinn. Út og inn. . Fingur ná. Lenda á. Augnabrá. Kviknar glóð. Rennur blóð. . Augnsteinar. Víkka út. Magahnút.
The boy was getting slept on, praying that they woke up. Now he want the whole game, know that's what they owe us. Vibing with my whole clique, all my n*ggas stay down.
{CHORUS}. Keep little the promise. but less the lie. from down this mud here. to way up sky. let light and love. be keep to the test. and short supply.
I feel I come from better conditions. Buried deep in my mind I forgot. Awake my soul. I want to find and drink this light. . Images of the past. Other lives and other places.
History erased my story, my ancestors. But I'm still alive. Clenched fist, I bite the floor. My eyes turn to red. I raise my voice, show my fury. Wide open to the sun.
It gave me hope for a future. Like a suture to the wounded. But I was caught in the headlights. Or the blind spot on that dark night. And I'm sure it confused her.
Sold down the river bitch I'm far from the track. The waters running fast and it's strength that I still lack. The storm the rain it covers my tracks.
Can I walk here beside you, can I speak your name. Can I just be here. Can I speak in anger, can I speak in shame. Can I just be here. . I'm a lover, I'm a winner, I'm a fighter.
