Etana - Spoken Soul lyrics

rate me

Moving ahead from my struggles of yesterday

On a musical journey that will bliss

The mind, body and the raw soul

My inspiration, my joy, my thoughts, my heart

From the young mind to win old hearts

We speak many languages, yet we can’t relate

To the battles we face

We are different in some many ways

Yet so much is still the same

Abandoned, abused, used, tried and lied to

Some exit life as we know it

Traveling like light, like light, like light

Like lights, like lights, like lights

Some moving right beside you

Some dare to try it,

They don’t wanna live no more, no

Some continue to stand and fight

Not knowing where they go, but they go

Hoping and praying for a better tomorrow every night

Lol is what we do when old folks speak

Many don’t care for the deep roots of those trees

But they used to care and share a lot more than we do

Though they don’t have much at times

But they made it through

And these selfish sexual and demonic days

Young hearts find it hard to concentrate, can’t meditate

Confused, drowning in electrowaves and symbols

I remember, I remember my grannie used to speak of days

Of shilings and pences, now we talk dollars and cents

In everything there’s good and bad

Moments that make me laugh, moments that make me sad

Like everything in due time, in due season

Which is the reason I say

There’ll be a day, there’ll be a way

There’ll come a time to sing a brand new song

There’ll be, there’ll be,

There will be a better, a better tomorrow

Better tomorrow, yeah.
