lyrics

Beloveds

Beloveds, we wake up in the morning to darkness and watch it
turn into lightness with hope.

Each morning we wait in our bed listening for the parrots
and their noise.

When I speak of parrots I speak of what we wake up to this
morning.

I speak of grandsons of Haitian slaves and what it means to
be French.

Beloveds, I keep trying to speak of loving but all I can speak about is
acts of war and acts of war acts of war and acts of war

Beloveds, we wake up in the morning to darkness and watch it
turn into lightness with hope.

Each evening we wait in our bed, looking for the sunset to set.

When I speak of sunset I speak of birds breaking free from captivity.

I speak of four dead in Palestine.

And three dead in Israel.

Beloveds, I keep trying to speak of loving but all I can speak about is
acts of war and acts of war acts of war and acts of war
