paroles de chanson Somptin' Hapnin' (Water in Me) - Adham Shaikh

I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree
So I could stand up tall feeling the wind and the
And the water in me
I am all alone here
Even a luna bella hides beyond the clouds
Darkness of night come
It's just fear to push my voice
Down beyond the old line
My breasts stark against the wind
Drops are sharp
Reminders of the sadness I hold
Of the shame

Shame for all the moments that I have headtripped the ones I love most
But I am mending now towards the peaceful exit of that ghost
I am mending now towards the peaceful exit of that ghost
I am mending now

I wish I were as strong and as flexible as an ancient tree
So I could stand up tall feeling the wind and the water in me
Water in me

If I could go back, well, I would do it all differently
Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity
If I could go back I would do it all differently
Replacing the sore spots with generosity and dignity

Go back to all my times of underhanded savvy
And swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree
Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree
Swear on the silhouette of the strongest tree

I will be kinder, more forgiving and more humble
I will be kinder, more forgiving and more humble

I will be more forgiving, more forgiving and more humble
I will be more forgiving of myself as well
Because I too am fumbling as I stumble
To the eye of the storm
And I am naked I surrender my strength
Because I am so small and irrelevent
I surrender my pride
Because I am so small and irrelevent
I surrender my name
Because I am so small and irrelevent
I surrender my pride
Because I am so small and irrelevent
I surrender my name
Because I am so small and irrelevent
So small and irrelevent
So small and irrelevent

The storm swings on and I am opened to her sweetening
Freezing and screaming and
There is no one here for questioning
And for chanting and undoing
Chanting and undoing
Chanting and undoing
Chanting and undoing

The storm is my greatest grandmother
She is my truth-teller
Nothing stops her from delivering the secrets she uncovers
Example:
She gives me want of something
Rain that lays daggers on my skin
Heavy storm
Pierce me wind
Howl against my offering and
Howl against my offering and
Howl against my offering and

Throw me out so I come forth clear through the softening
Throw me out so my thoughts come through
This time redeeming
Give me the strength and the flexibility of an ancient tree
So I can stand up tall and feel the
Water in me
