Black Sand Lyrics by Professor J

2019

{Intro}
No mother or child
Roxanne and Sophie
Rock hand and small feet
Sonder she's so thin
Sophie...
{Verse}
They had never seen black sand
Sweat down their face
Questions the abyss that God planned
As her mother calls out Roxanne
Marked a fallen angel there's no halo
In that South side
The water tickles when it's knee high
Oil spill in the horizon I can see fire
And she's allergic to the motion
Rock hand dive hard swim deep
Strokes wild salt eyes sea weed
Ghost's child and it's only been a week
Since she whispered to what lurks in the sea
{Verse}
They said her mother was the brave one
She never knew when to quit
And when she visits that black sand
She covers the angel in sheets
Dressed like her daughter
Lungs quenched with water
She boards a boat called memory
On a pier designed for dreams
Or a getaway, she mistook it for a gateway
I could swear man I saw her on that cruise ship
There was no current, the captain said the seas tired
The time said 12 ish, wrong forecast
Ashy knee caps braised from the heat
It could breath fire
The passengers laughed in senile
Envious, cos' they could never be wild
{Bridge}
Oil spills and I can see fire
No mother or child
And there's no halo
In that south side
Oil spills and I can see fire
{Chorus}
No mother or child
No mother or child
{Verse}
I saw a lady in the haze, praising the tides with a wave
The noon failed to show her, so it was cursed with the prospect of rain
Swish sounds and a heart was pounding
Deep down I knew her "Hi" was a drowning
Trickles were tearing the sky so
My face called a tear to it's eye
Her worship sang the souls of thousands they pull
At her ankle to join them thats when hate
Laid in place they had a heart when they were breathing
But not Roxanne, with her rock hand, Look...ss..
She saw the lady with a wave, praising the tides in the haze
She recognised the face, So navigates the waters in her space
Her whereabouts should have been hard like in a maze
Let's baptise the lady she was lonely and she needed a friend
{chorus}
No mother or child
No mother or child
{Bridge}
Rock hand and Sophie
Rock hand she's Sophie
{Verse}
Roxanne didn't recognise her mother, but she was fond of the embrace
And in case she got bored of her, she could take off in that brief case
With no intention of baggage, Sophie clung like a stow away
This body only accepts the young it's terminal, for those who plan to stay
In the beautiful form she adores
Resides a cheap and ordinary soul
I could kill to protect my illusion said Sophie
Hugging as her bones dissolved
Strange girls who could of had it all
Strong girls who could strike the sun with straight curls
Their hair shared no hesitation, when they chose to run
The oceans calm began to lose feet
Like how gossipers began to lose lip
Twisting the tale of Sophie and Roxanne to Madonna and child
But death pinned them both in the water
And left no mother or child...
There's no halo In that South side
