Water Child

Run water child run
Back to the lakes you know
Momma's there, sisters there , everybody fa sho
Run water child run
Back to the trees you know
You are bound to Earth
And no one knows the mysteries you hold
Run water child run
Back to the mother you know
African pride, afro pics and locs
You rock, you rock style, you rock sweetness
You make hard men smile
Run water child run
Back to the God you know
Church couldn't hold you
Choirs couldn't sing enough praise
Water child look at the hell you have raised
Run water child run
Run until you fly
Pick up your ancestors, those that cannot be left behind
You have good spirits that make you be kind
Run water child run
Back to the Bayous you call home
Back to the place water child is born
