Early February

(앨범: My Name Is Bear - 2017)

There was one born early February
On an icy afternoon
She was far too young to even carry
So they gave her options out
And she knew she wasn't even ready
So she used her head
And instead put the baby
In the bed of a woman she never met
And she let go
So many years ago, many years ago
She wonders where he roams
Wonders where he roams

I saw her fall, fall, fall
Fall on her knees
In sorrowful respect for the child who leaves
Tell me where, tell where is your God now?

On the dock at 7:30
Dressed and pressed in white
Proudly represents his country's Navy
Now it's time to have some fun
Out on leave he meets a pretty lady
And created me
His folks were wealthy
The girl not looking healthy
So they advised him to run, run from his son
Run from his son
His firstborn was mistaken
For a smoking gun
Father, look what you have done

I saw him fall, fall, fall
Fall on his knees
In sorrowful respect for the child who leaves
Tell me where, tell where is your God now?

In my van I shook with violent treason
Oh, Colombia Gorge!
Hold my mama's picture as I'm dreaming
Of my baby sisters, who are they?
Got a lot of longing for my kin
And now I'm thinking
What of you, little brother?
Have you respect for your mother
And your native tongue?
Oh, your lungs
Breathe indigenous
Breathe indigenous
In your dreams
Little brother, where have you gone?

I saw her fall, fall, fall
Fall on her knees
In sorrowful respect for the child who leaves
Tell me where, tell where is your God now?
(Where is your God now?)
