Текст песни awomen amen - Genesis Owusu

Said you brought me to the land with the soil and
The sand and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said you taught me how to breathe with the trees and
The leaves and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said you make me blush,
Put my heart in a rush and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said the world don′t spin till you flip that
Thing and you make us grow (grow grow grow grow)

Sister sister, let your light shine
Despite crimes of unjust measures of this time
They fight signs of greatness, politic and hate this
Double standard paint, they major
If you want a doctorate then get to it
If you wanna shake ya ass then you do it
'Cause a booty and weave and a uni degree
They do not have to be mutually exclusive
You are soul, you are might
You are honey, you are granite, you are ice
You are elegant and nasty and bold and a fright
You ensnare me and you scare me
But my god you are the light, you the light

Said you brought me to the land with the soil and
The sand and you make me grow grow grow grow grow
Said you taught me how to breathe with the trees
And the leaves and you make me grow grow grow grow grow
Said you make me blush,
Put my heart in a rush and you make me grow grow grow grow grow
Said the world don′t spin till you flip that
Thing and you make us grow grow grow grow grow

If you know about the motherly love
Say a(wo)men
If you talking 'bout birds and you know about a dove
Say a(wo)men

If you believe in a world where you know that you can
Say a(wo)men
And when you pray to the god on your knees and your hands
Say a(wo)men
Check it out like

Then that little man in black there,
He says women can't have as much
Rights as men, ′cause Christ wasn′t a woman!
Where did your Christ come from?
Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman!
If the first woman God ever made was strong
Enough to turn the world upside down all alone,
These women together ought to be able to
Turn it back, and get it right side up again!
And now they is asking to do it, the men better let them

Ayy don't know what it means to be you
I viewed the world through eyes trained to demean you
Conditioned lies taught me to believe you
Were just a prize, alive for my retrieval, but
Your crown snapped me from the ominous
You cautioned us of our views that were profitless
And now the sisters and the teens and the misses and the dreams,
Have taught me a bad B and queen can be synonymous
Vis-a-vis the dominance
Breathe and see the confidence
Please believe your opulence
You′ve been the truth since the days of old
So watch the cracks fill as the world's re-told

Watch the world grow

Said you brought me to the land with the soil and
The sand and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said you taught me how to breathe with the trees and
The leaves and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said you make me blush,
Put my heart in a rush and you make me grow (grow grow grow grow)
Said the world don′t spin till you flip that
Thing and you make us grow (grow grow grow grow)
