SOMEDAY

ALL THIS HORRIBLE RHETORIC 'BOUT RELIGION AND OF RACE
I'M AFRO-AMERICAN A MICK AND I'M A MACK
SO MUCH UNIFORMITY WE ALL WOULD HAVE ONE FACE
GIVE ME SOME DICHOTOMY 'CAUSE OPPOSITES ATTRACT AND ONE DAY
SOME DAY WE'LL LEAVE ALL THAT BEHIND

SINCE I WAS A YOUNG GIRL I'D HOPED TO MEET A PRINCE
NOW I'VE MET A LEGEND THAT I CANNOT SEEM TO REASON WITH
QUIOTIC, QUINTESSENTIAL, HE'S ALL I'VE THOUGHT OF SINCE
IS THIS MAN A FANTASY, A FAIRY TALE, A MYTH
SOMEDAY THIS HERO WILL BE MINE

I'VE TRAVELED FORTH TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH
NOW FOUND A MAN WHO COULD BE

WHO KNEW THAT MY ROOTS WOULD TAKE ME BACK TO DISTANT LANDS

BACK TO LIST
