Hurricane |
| In the eye of a hurricane |
| There is quiet |
| For just a moment |
| A yellow sky |
| When I was seventeen a hurricane |
| Destroyed my town |
| I didn’t drown |
| I couldn’t seem to die |
| I wrote my way out |
| Wrote everything down far as I could see |
| I wrote my way out |
| I looked up and the town had its eyes on me |
| They passed a plate around |
| Total strangers |
| Moved to kindness by my story |
| Raised enough for me to book passage on a |
| Ship that was New York bound… |
| I wrote my way out of hell |
| I wrote my way to revolution |
| I was louder than the crack in the bell |
| I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell |
| I wrote about The Constitution and defended it well |
| And in the face of ignorance and resistance |
| I wrote financial systems into existence |
| And when my prayers to God were met with indifference |
| I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance |
| In the eye of a hurricane |
| There is quiet |
| For just a moment |
| A yellow sky |
| I was twelve when my mother died |
| She was holding me |
| We were sick and she was holding me |
| I couldn’t seem to die |
| Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it… |
| I’ll write my way out… |
| Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it… |
| Write ev’rything down, far as I can see… |
| Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait… (History has its eyes on you) |
| I’ll write my way out… |
| Overwhelm them with honesty |
| This is the eye of the hurricane, this is the only |
| Way I can protect my legacy… |
| Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait… |
