Tears Lyrics by Ben LaMar Gay

Grapes

2018

[Chorus]
It tastes like water
It feels like rain
All I want is power
The power to understand
[Verse 1]
It's we who run them streets full of fire
With mama's grocery list inside our hands
We bob and weave 'cause we're no easy targets
Our dog has sensed the evil ways of man
It [?] like a bell tower
Ring in line we call him [?]
He guides the youth with some magic power
Licking tears fresh from human jaws
[Chorus]
It tastes like water
It feels like rain
All I want is power
The power to understand
[Bridge]
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
I can own it
[Verse 2]
Get close baby tell me how you do it
Can't stop for long 'cause we live on the run
The joy he brings to them is a reminder
Them downtown castles could never block the sun
It's we who carry groceries with our dog
The sorrow man he could never figure it out
On the way home he sees little Keisha crying
He stops real quick with tongue hanging from mouth
[Chorus]
It tastes like water
It feels like rain
All I want is power
The power to understand
It tastes like water
It feels like rain
All I want is power
The power to understand
