Testo Nina Cried Power - Hozier feat. Mavis Staples
Testo della canzone Nina Cried Power (Hozier feat. Mavis Staples), tratta dall'album Wasteland, Baby! (Special Edition)
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
It is the groundin' of a foot uncompromisin'
It's not forgoin' of the lie
It's not the openin' of eyes
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
It's not the shade we should be casting
It's the light and it's the obstacle that casts it
It's the heat that drives the light
It's the fire it ignites
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
It's not the song, it is the singin'
It's the heaven of the human spirit ringin'
It is the bringin' of the line
It is the bearin' of the lie
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
And I could cry power (power)
Power (power)
Power (power)
Nina cried power
Billie cried power
Linus cried power
And I could cry power
Power (power)
Power (power)
Power
Curtis cried power
Kenny cried power
Nina cried power
It's not the war but what's behind it
Oh, the fear of how men is near assignment
And everythin' that we're denied by keepin' the divide
It's not the wakin', it's the risin'
And I could cry power (power)
Power (power)
Power (power)
Nina cried power
Lenny cried power
James Brown cried power
And I could cry power
Power (power)
Power (power)
Power
Billie cried power
Junie cried power
Nina cried power
And I could cry power
Power has been cried by those stronger than me
Straight into the face that tells you to grab on your chains
If you love bein' free
Ah, lord I could cry power
Power (power)
'Cause power is my love and my righteous to me
James Brown cried power
Sieger cried power
Minnie cried power
Woman cried power
Yeah ah, power
James cried power
Millie cried power
Kenny cried power
Billie, power
Jillian, power
Woody, power
Nina cried power
