Toni Childs Death
Oh mother, can you hear me?
Can you hear me now?
Did you die alone and afraid?
That no one knew the pain
That still remained
Inside your breast this night
Inside this holy place
A place into the void
Can you hear, hear me now as I call?
I'm calling you here, I can't explain
Explosions and the wound in my heart today
I'm killing myself with drink
I'm killing myself to think
I didn't tell you, I cared
Can you hear?
I needed to say
To let you know
I felt your pain
I'm calling your name to let you know
That I'm sorry for the shame, disguised as blame
And the hurt and pain and the love I couldn't say
That I want to say now
Oh, peace
Let there be peace
Let there be peace
Let there be peace
Let there be peace
It's beautiful here
There is safety in my ears
It's wonderful to be here with you
I breathin' in light, I breathin' in her
I breathin' in the darkness of what it is to live
It's beautiful here
I breathin' in life, I breathin' in blood
I breathin' in lonely [Incomprehensible] of life and holy joy
It's beautiful here, there is safety in my ears
It's wonderful to be here with you
I'm feelin' safe inside you
And I'm feelin' like life would inside you
The blood and the river, said
"We are one with you here the same"
Mother, can you tell me please?
Am I'm safe?
I decide [Incomprehensible]
I decide to be whole
And I decide all the world
And I decide to be born
But when I think of this world
What will I do in this world?
Well, I've been [Incomprehensible] up this world
