lyrics

Something in the water
Something in these signs
Something ‘bout the rainfall
Something bout these times

Feels like due awakening
Feels like seasons new
Feels like change a-coming
Feels like healing soon

No song for preaching
I’m just glad the tide’s turning away
No song for preaching
I just know we owe it to the race

Who am I to silence
The ones who led from the ones who paved the way
Spoke the words, all I’ll ever say
Who am I to violate
The ones who bred from the world set in stone
Gave me everything, All I’ve ever known

Something in the water
Something in these signs
Something ‘bout the rainfall
Something bout these times

Feels like due awakening
Feels like seasons new
Feels like change a-coming
Feels like healing soon

No song for preaching
I’m just glad the tide’s turning away
No song for preaching
I just know we owe it to the race
