Yemaya

In a dream, I hear her laughter
Like waves upon the shore
It pulls me further out than I should go
Underneath the asphalt stirring
The stream of the earth
Break your holy waters over us

Oh Yemaya, I'm clear
Oh Yemaya, I'm listening
Oh Yemaya, I'm clear
Oh Yemaya, I'm listening

It starts first at the centre flowing
Knows just where to go
Like the newborn swimming in a stream
Through the rusted pipelines sprawling
Sunken concrete ruin
Where the delta meets the ocean floor

Oh Yemaya, I'm clear
Oh Yemaya, I'm listening to you
Oh Yemaya, I'm clear
Oh Yemaya, I'm listening to you, ooh
