Lyrics:

Father can you hear me
I’ve taken my first step
And I won’t be coming home
Till I get some respect

Mother can you hear me
I travel fast and light
I only take the baggage
That gets me through the night

Father can you hear me
Across a trail of tears
And when I try to reach the sky
I fall down in fear

Mother can you hear me
I taste the bitter truth
Poisons fill my body
And take away mu youth

Walking the edge
I’ve crossed the line
Taking my time to get
My peace of mind
Get out

Father can you hear me
The rivers strong and deep
A sea of people drowning
Face down in the street

I said mother can you hear me
Through the concrete and steel
I feel the city breathing
All noise
No fell, just pain I say
Get out
I can’t hear her

Walking the edge
I’ve crossed the line
Taking my time to get
My peace of mind
