Fat Freddy’s Drop - Runnin (Live) lyrics

Though my hands are cold and my mouth is dry
Well, this journey's told, is a mountain high
Though the wind she burns
Like an angel's flame
She will give me strength so I can move again

And though my people may not be many
We are ready for the storm to come
And though my people may not be many
We are ready to be strong as one
And though my people, travel light
They are willing to fight the fight
And though my people may not
Be many we are ready

We have got to find a way, let it be done
Let it be done (ooh)
Do you want to keep the faith
Until the storm has broken?
We have got to find a way
To rise above the pain
My men come, he cross the waters
My men come he cross the sea (yes)
He has the sons, he has the daughters
But he brings with him sea (ooh)

And though my people may not be many
We are ready for the storm to come
And though my people may not be many
We are ready to be strong as one
And though my people, travel light
They are willing to fight the fight
And though my people may not
Be many we are ready

We have got to find a way, let it be done
Let it be done (ooh)
Do you want to keep the faith
Until the storm has broken?
We have got to find a way
To rise above the pain

The industry - they'll never find me
Here among the trees my footsteps will be
Will be all that I leave
Oh lonely island, so rich and fair
We leave your shores for reasons unclear
Looking for a better life
And you are all that I need (hey)
All that I need
