Lyrics for Song: Hope In The Air
Lyrics for Album: I Speak Because I Can [2010]
There is a man that I know
For seventeen years he never spoke
Guessed he had nothing to say
He opened his mouth on judgement day
I listened with all of my might
I was scared by the look in his eyes
Like he'd already lost the fight
And there was no hope ever in sight
No hope in the air,no hope in the water
Not even for me your last serving daughter
Why fear death, be scared of living
Oh hearts are small and ever thinning
There is no hope ever of winning
Oh why fear death, be scared of living
I have seen men provoked
And I have seen lives revoked
And I looked at my life and I choked
From there no more ever I spoke
I can't give up that quick
My life is a candle and a wick
You can put it out but you can't break it down
In the end we are waiting to be lit
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me your last serving daughter
A friend is a friend forever
And a good one will never leave never
But you've never been south and what rolls of your mouth
You will never understand ever
You speak minds handed down to you
By the lies handed down by your truth
And angels that dance at your wail
Will mask your scrambling youth
I forgave you your shortcomings
And ignored your childish behavior
Laid a kiss on your head and before I left said
Stay away from fleeting favor
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me your last serving daughter
Pick up your rope Lord, sling it to me
If we are to battle I must not be weak
And give us your strength world
And your food and your water
Oh I am your savior your last serving daughter
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me, your last serving daughter
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But no hope for me, your last serving daughter
