MOTHERTONGUE
Artist: Hinda Hicks
Written by E.Roderick Jackson/M.Hamilton/H.Hicks (2000)
I've been hoping the new dawning
May bring with it
Some peace within our lives
Because there's too many
Little babies crying
Too many soldiers on front lines
That's why I say
If now and then
We looked over our shoulders
Maybe we'll find
Our way ahead is so much clearer
We'll know to leave behind
All of the things that
Hold us back from
Being all we can
How free we'd be to go
On in life and fulfil our destiny
Grudges we bear
Only get us nowhere

Slaves
Let me feel your voice, your not alone.
'Cause we are slaves to choice, it brings us home.
Your not alone, your not alone.
Staged high, a high, a high, high.
Let me feel your voice, your not alone.
'Cause we are slaves to choice, it brings us home.
Your not alone, your not alone, your not alone, no, no, no.
