Sonia Dada - Planes & Satellites lyrics
rate meWhen I was a boy
You know my momma would say to me
The world's a mystery, of darkness and light
When I was a kid
I would stare off into space
To escape the evil place, I was livin' in
When I was alone
I would close my eyes at night
Fill in an imaginary light, with the moon and stars
But I remember
Livin' in the street
My heart Would drift away, into the night
(chorus)
In the sky, in the sky, in the sky, in the sky
They got the planes and satellites
Yeah, airplanes and satellites
Whoa, whoa
(chorus repeat)
You know my momma said, boy
She said, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby boy
Listen to what I say
You know that evil ain't goin' away
Ain't goin' away, no, no
But I look up in the sky,
It ain't flooded with the stars
Pretty lights are flying across
To shine on me yeah yeah
(chorus x2)
When I was a boy
I remember livin' in the streets
I didn't have enough to eat
It was a misery
I could wake up, and look up in the sky
Hopin' that God's light would shine on me, yeah
(chorus x2)
