Janelle Monáe - High Tide or Low Tide lyrics

In high seas or in low seas
I'm gonna be your friend
I’m gonna be your friend
In high tide or in low tide
I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side

I heard her praying, praying, praying
I said, I heard my mother
She was praying in the night
(Praying, praying, praying, praying)
And the words that she said
(The words that she said)
They still linger in my head
(Linger in my head) she said
"A child is born in this world
He needs protection
God, guide and protect us
When we’re wrong, please, correct us
(When we're wrong, correct us)
And, and, and stand by me"

In high seas or in low seas
I'm gonna be your friend
I'm gonna be your friend
In high tide or in low tide
I'll be by your side i'll be by your side

I said I heard my mother
She was crying in the night
(I heard her crying, crying, crying)
And the tears that she shed
(The tears that she shed)
They still linger in my head
(Linger in my head)
"A child is born in this world
She needs protection, oh I, oh I, I, I
God, guide and protect us
When we're wrong, please, correct us
(When we're wrong, correct us)
And stand by me

In high seas or in low seas
I’m gonna be your friend
I’m gonna be your friend
In high tide or in low i'll be
(I’ll be by your side, I'll be by your side)
I'll be by, be by your side
