anna owens - working hands (mastered) lyrics

Loading...

(verse 1)
scr+ping the paint off his hands
my father, he’s a working man
looking down at me with his tired face
before taking my arms into his loving embrace

(pre+chorus)
send another prayer up to heaven
because it all falls under the surface
wicked deeds swept under a carpet
now little do they know this

(chorus)
these working hands will
break your privileged bones and
crush them in the dirt ‘cause
they say that’s what we’re worth

do you know my homeland
poverty is abundant
speaking: do you understand?
money is a greedy man’s language

(after+chorus x2)
do you?
do you?
or are you just saying it, just taking it as is?
(verse 2)
she holds the future in her hands
my mother, she’s a working woman
looking down at me with her weary face
before taking my arms to her loving embrace

(repeat pre+chorus, chorus, after+chorus)

(bridge)
i’m talking:
resilience in the face of adversity
god+given prosperity
bearing fruit through every season
i’ll never be hungry through a famine

(repeat chorus, after+chorus)
