lyrics

my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause it seems that there might be a thing or two you wanna say
my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause i have words to write the way your body sways and moves

you speak in a tongue some cannot hear
but i hear you loud and clear
'cause i have thoughts and i have heart
and i can't fall asleep until my mother heals

my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause it seems that there might be a thing or two you wanna say
my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause i have words to write the way your body sways and moves

i feel you in my brains and bones
i hear you in the waves that flow
i drink from your naked breast
your rhythms let my body rest
as you tuck me into a head full of dreams
here is my lullaby, dear mama won't you hear me sing?

my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause it seems that there might be a thing or two you wanna say
my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause i have words to write the way your body sways and moves

and i want to shout them out
as my feet stomp the ground
and we will hear their echoes ricochet
everywhere you're there

my voice is yours
please let it be heard

my mother, may i speak for you?
'cause it seems that there might be a thing or two you wanna say
