My Culture |
When I look back over the years at the |
Things that bring tears to my eyes |
Poppa said we had to be wise to live long lives |
Now I recognise what my father said before he died |
Vocalised things I left unsaid |
Left my spirit unfed for too long |
I’m coming home to my family where I can be strong |
For you I plan to be Within me, my ancestry, giving me continuity |
This is what my daddy told me I wish he would hold me a little more than he did |
But he taught me my culture |
And how to live positive |
I never wanna shame the blood in my veins |
And bring pain to my sweet grandfather’s face |
In his resting place |
I’ll make haste to learn and not waste |
Everything my forefathers earned in tears |
For my culture |
Fall back again |
Crawl from the warm waters |
Don’t ever forget |
You’re on your feet again |
Your feet again |
Hello Dad remember me |
I’m the man you’d thought I’d never be |
I’m the boy who you reduced to tears |
Dad I’ve been lonely for 27 years |
Yeah that’s right my name’s Rob |
I’m the one who landed the popstar’s job |
I’m the one who you told look don’t touch |
I’m the kid who wouldn’t amount to much |
I believe in the senses of the sound |
I have always been too loud |
Won’t you help me drown it out |
I’m what I feel, what I’m feeling is surreal |
I’m a mass of spinning wheels |
Always digging in my heels |
Now I’ve got the faith to Fall back again |
Crawl from the warm waters |
Don’t ever forget |
You’re on your feet again |
Your feet again |
This is what my daddy told me I wish he would hold me a little more than he did |
But he taught me my culture |
And how to live positive |
I never wanna shame the blood in my veins |
And bring pain to my sweet grandfather’s face |
In his resting place |
I’ll make haste to learn and not waste |
Everything my forefathers earned in tears |
For my culture |
Fall back again |
Crawl from the warm waters |
Don’t ever forget |
You’re on your feet again |
Your feet again |
(For my culture) |
Fall back again |
Crawl from the warm waters |
Don’t ever forget |
You’re on your feet again |
Your feet again |
(For my culture) |
