melvillous - mother's cry lyrics

it’s a perfect marriage anyway
it must be more than hugs and kisses everyday
i remember sitting on that top step
round about the age of 4
just waiting till the cops left
all the shouting and the swearing
i was scared to cover up my ears
because if he laid a finger on her
i would do some years
at least i thought so
i was just a child i [?] wish there are no poor soul
i walk a thousand miles
just to free me of these thoughts though
the things i’ve seen would probably haunt most
when i’m done i love to crop lyrics
it’s hard telling the story because it’s not finished
but my heart will always know the truth
take a sip of the source but don’t get lost in it
nah, don’t get lost in it
daddy, don’t get lost in it
we need you around to raise your child
‘cuz we ain’t got no village
we ain’t got no pillars
we ain’t got no image
we ain’t got no fathers
we ain’t got no figures
never played your part
but the whole time your role should’ve been the biggest
you were never there when it got unfair
and the feds then called us nig-
never showed no interest
this is our story
i’m not the only one who feels mad
dad never looked out for me
i’m a local lad
just know you ain’t alone in that
yeah i’ve been hurt i ain’t over that
so much pain had loads of that
and i ain’t going back
i’ve been holding back on my grief
tryna hold it down for my team
so afraid to showing my weakness
but i can’t front today [?]
i was in a yawn about to go sleep
when i hear the door slam below me
they start arguing and i can’t pretend that this don’t happen most weeks
but this time you called the police
blue lights flash on my street
i hop out of bed and went down the stairs
jumped in trying to make peace

when you see your mother cry
it makes you think “what kind of son am i?”
no more hiding under covers
let your spark ignite the others
working wonders in your brother’s eyes
‘cuz i just seen my mother cry
it made me think what kind of son am i
no more hiding under covers
‘cuz this light is working wonders
i can see it in my brother’s eyes
i can see it in my brother’s eyes
i can see it in my brother’s eyes
i can see it in my brother’s eyes
