I am... from fool's spring by lauren.napier

I am my father's daughter
feel my temper rise
there's something in the water
underneath southern skies
crushed by the brightness of the dawn's early light
fueled by the shadows of his ancestor's night

the black and white becomes the grey of the road beneath my feet
the clock unwinds the time does fade
and all is as it was
as it is
as it was

I am my mother's daughter
feel my aching heart
fueled by a soul with a kindness unheard
raised by a charm of a middle class facade
children should be seen not heard
so silence all your needs
follow the light of your parents' words
and not the darkness of their deeds
of their deeds
of their deeds (indeed)

I am my family's daughter
feel the power in my voice
there's something in the bloodline
defying rules for choice
to rise above the waters
of a world drowned in hate
and follow hidden footsteps
from an outdated fate...


the black and white becomes the grey of the road beneath my feet
the clock unwinds the time does fade
and all is as it was
as it is
as it was
