sweet honey in the rock - ella's song lyrics

Loading...

we who believe in freedom cannot rest
we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes

until the k!lling of black men, black mothers’ sons
is as important as the k!lling of white men, white mothers’ sons

that which touches me most
is that i had a chance to work with people
p-ssing on to others that which was p-ssed on to me

to me young people come first
they have the courage where we fail
and if i can but shed some light as they carry us through the gale

the older i get the better i know that the secret of my going on
is when the reins are in the hands of the young, who dare to run against the storm

not needing to clutch for power
not needing the light just to shine on me
i need to be one in the number as we stand against tyranny

struggling myself don’t mean a whole lot, i’ve come to realize
that teaching others to stand up and fight is the only way my struggle survives

i’m a woman who speaks in a voice and i must be heard
at times i can be quite difficult, i’ll bow to no man’s word

we who believe in freedom cannot rest
we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes

- sweet honey in the rock lyrics
