lirik lagu lonnie holley - i can't hush
[verse]
we never had a chance to start it over
once our life began we had to live ’em on out
we had to live ’em on out with or without friends
with or without parents, brothers, or sisters
we was in the midst of life kind
we was on a planet
i call her the mothership
she had everything growing
that us, the humans, needed
oh, when we think about her water
her water had all kinds of life formations
it was giving birth and birth and birth and birth and birth and birth and birth and birth and birth unto itself
as i laid on my back
looking up into the heavens
at othеr stars that looked like little fl!ckеrs of lights
i looked deep
i looked so deep
sometime i would fall off to sleep
i let my eyes gaze deep within
i remember looking at my mother and my grandmother and i wondered
why, why, why did they keep it all locked within their brains?
now that i’m an old man
now i know why
kept all they did to themselves
kept all they did to themselves
all the stressful moments
all the abuses and abuses and abuses
and the abuses and
they said nothing
they just let them sink deep within
i’d rather bury myself in my thought
i said to myself, “hush, lonnie bradley holley
or hush little tonkie mcelroy
don’t you cry
hush there, little child
there’s more to reality, and i’m going to tell you why
i can’t hush
i can’t hush, i’m the little baby that was born that cannot hush
how can i be any more than i am?
just to pull myself
to pull myself free
how can i?
how can i reach, how can i reach?
i need the black ropes of hope
i need the togetherness
where we put our black hands together and act like a rope
no matter what conditions we have to face
we face them together
i know that there are some that is blind and cannot see
and there is some that cannot hear
but we still can feel and we have emotions
[outro]
(we have emotions)
(we have emotions)
(we have emotions)
we have emotions
(we have emotions)
