Brave (Suffering / Beautiful) (2016) Lyrics by Stew & The Negro Problem

2019

[Intro: spoken]
“Give me your tired, your poor
Your hurled masses yearning to breath free
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me
I lift my lap beside the golden door!”
[Verse 1]
I dream't my voice was a siren
Can you give me that sound, [?]?
Echo and woodwinds
The voice of dawn [?]
Can I sing about the least of these?
Can you give me that sound, [?]?
Can you turn it all around, [?]?
And make it sound like me?
Am I asking too much, [?]?
I need hеlp, not a crutch, [?]
Can you make it go backwards
Forwards, and black-wards?
Can you whirl me through space
(Needs a chorus)
Whilе I’m standing in place?
(A little chorus!)
Well, if you turn up the bass
(What’s it all about, baby?!)
I’ll take you to a new set of [?]
[Chorus]
Brave, suffering, beautiful
Brave, suffering, beautiful
Brave, suffering, beautiful
Brave, suffering, beautiful
[Verse 2]
I dream't my voice was a mountain
Can you give me that sound, [?]?
Climbing past heaven
To even higher ground, [?]
Wanna preach under spotlight
Rock and roll Sermon on the Mount, [?]
My pen started this late last night
But now my voice [?] the song from [?]
[Chorus]
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m so black and blue, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m so black and blue, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m so black and blue, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful
[Verse 3]
When you hear me sing just one note
You know I’ve got this thing that you don’t
And if you love me, pull out your tool kit
And if you love me, [?]
Because I’m…
[Chorus]
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m brave enough to be a slave, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I slave to this groove, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (In a state of grace, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful
[Verse 4]
Hear my chimes ding
Its time for me to sing
And flip your paradigm
I’m working on a thing
That’s ‘bout to make it ring
Somewhere deep inside your mind
Because I’m…
[Chorus]
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m brave, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m brave, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (I’m brave, baby)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (Give me your brave! Your suffering! Your beautiful!)
Brave, suffering, beautiful (Give me your brave! Your suffering! Your beautiful!)
Brave, suffering, beautiful
Brave, suffering
Beautiful
[Outro]
N.Y.C
I’m so black and blue, baby
I’m so black and blue, baby
I’m so black and blue, baby
