Hush Child

(Verse)

Silent night

Holy night

Poverty on the rise

Wealthy reverend in designer clothes

Homeless children with frostbitten toes

Sleeping in the street

Sleeping in the street



(Verse)

I ain't tryna be philosophical

But it's not logical

Some folks out here freezing, others chilling like it's tropical



(Verse)

The indifference is very crazy

Like poverty's contagious

My hands are dirty but I'm still worried

Step in my shoes and walk in some mercy



(Verse)

They say this is your punishment for such poor judgment

But you must've lost your mind

How you gon feed it when you're barely eating?

Get ready for the wealth and lie

I ain't tryna hear it

You make the bed, lay in it

But I'm way too strong for you to break my spirit



(Verse)

Is it me?

Am I the cause of all my mother's misery?

This cloud of secrecy on my paternity

Did my very birth destroy my whole family?



(Verse)

I'm just a sinner, I know who I am

Just a beginner, I'm not yet a man

Send me a signal, I'll follow your light

Just help me through this silent night



(Chorus)

Hush child, it'll be alright

I'll get you through this silent night

Hush child, it'll be alright

I'll get you through this silent night



(Verse)

This ain't living

I got a mouth to feed

But I can't make this in my sleep

Got it be fictional

Just with my luck don't hear my prayers

I never been this hurt

The silence is too loud for me

Life just ain't fair



(Verse)

Is anyone out there?

Does anyone care?

Is anyone listening?

Is anyone there?

Just let me know that I'm a part of your plan

That you're watching over and over them



(Verse)

And where we are now?

How do we find our way?

Running from God, you're scared

With no place to stay



(Chorus x2)

Hush child, it'll be alright

I'll get you through this silent night

Hush child, it'll be alright

I'll get you through this silent night



Hush child, it'll be alright

We'll do this together



Sleep in heavenly beats

Sleep in heavenly beats
