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… |
