Moor Mother - Shekere lyrics

[Verse 1: Moor Mother] Gather in a circle, my purpose My collective work (yeah, here we go) My responsibility to the Earth, to the hurt I rework, self-determination, shootout my- We will outlast, rise up from the past Our future sway with that ass Guess we Osiris in Cali now We rise up, who gon' hold us down? Black fist and golden crown, ancient sound They can't hold us down (Shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek) [Chorus: Moor Mother and lojii] Shekere They put the pain on me They put the shamе on me They werе afraid of me [Verse 2: lojii] Shake it off, all my pain Open up my arms underneath the rain Saying is it feels when the music playing Drowning out my day, I let it wash away Gotta stop trying to carry all the pain One glass ni**a, nothing carry all the rain Can't be afraid to drown when the flood come Know this steady flow better than a lump sum Piling up your plague on your bum-bum Money stress, got too much dip on your chip, but yum-yum Yeah, be my guest, do what you gotta do Don't let it get stuck in your chest though You gotta stretch I shake it off, all my pain Open up my arms underneath the rain Saying is it feeling? Is the music playing? Drowning out my day, I let it wash away (Shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek) [Chorus 2: Moor Mother and lojii] Shekere, shekere Shekere, shekere Shekere, shekere (shek, shek, shek, shek, shek) (I have the pain on me I have the shame on me They put the blame on me) Shekere, shekere Shekere, shekere (They sent the beast on me They seem to hate on me They ain't [?] for me They ain't [?] for me They sent the beast on me) [Outro: Moor Mother] Guess we Osiris in Cali now Rise up, who gon' hold us down?
