Ferguson 04:54
What have we done, oh tell me what have we done, No we will not close our eyes, we will not hold our tongues There’s another poor boy dead, on the streets of Ferguson Another shot, fired from another gun Every moment is a choice, can never be undone What a wicked choice we made, on the streets of Ferguson His hands were up, oh what more is there to say Michael Brown was not a killer, they killed him him anyway When will black lives start to matter in the grand ole USA Land of the free, and the home of the enslaved First they teach you to be loyal, they tell you to be brave And they hand to you a weapon, while they dig for you a grave Promise me, you will not walk or run Better keep out of the shadows, and keep out of the sun Oh whenever you go out, on the streets of Ferguson

A love song 04:41
I don’t want to be your master, I don’t want to be your slave I just want to wander the world with you 'til our ashes are scattered into the waves Sometimes I wake up in the morning, I feel like blowing my horn But then when the chill of the evening comes I’ll be back in our kitchen, keeping you warm The minutes may seem like hours, the hours they may seem like days And someone may tell us we cannot go on, but I give you my word dear, we’ll find a way The brooks run into the ocean, the ocean run into the sea Someday when the flowers are blooming still, we’ll lay ourselves down on a pallet of leaves

The nighttime is shimmering in the trees And the air is growing cold And I'm sure your thoughts are not with me but I'll love you til I'm old The whiskey takes the edge away And clouds roll through my mind And I dream of things I'll never be And you from time to time oo-oh oo-oh oo-oh Rest rest beneath the rocks and the trees No more you and no more me Peace Peace I ask of thee any-one’s been wronged by me The days go by like airplanes overhead I can't see them through the leaves And through these woods I've often tread Every path leads to the sea And in these woods I've found I found rest rest rest Peace Peace No more you No more me Rest rest beneath the rocks and the trees No more you and no more me Peace Peace I ask of thee any-one’s been wronged by me Please Please Please give me your ear Friends and family gathered here Words, they are not the way Words, words they are not the way Words the are no the way To make the change we need to make today

Aminata 03:57
Aminata Aminata Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras Si tu veux resté dans le village Si tu veux partir, a la grande ville Tu dois decider, ça ne sera pas façile Mais dans cette vie, oh, c’est a toi le choix Aminata Aminata Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras Ta mere va te dire, tu dois faire comme si Ton pere va te dire, tu dois faire comme ça Mais si tu écoute, le choix de ton coeur Oh ma chérie, tu trouvera la voie Aminata Aminata Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras Ce que tu recherche tu le trouveras
