Tigress & Tweed

(专辑： The United States vs. Billie Holiday - 2021)

Say, say, say, mm
Say, say
Say a prayer for me

Strange fruit come down off the tree
Cut it down under your feet
Juicy fruit so bittersweet
Fruit stand tall, these roots go deep
Strange fruit busting on these leaves
Ancestors don't take defeat
Left the scent of victory
In the air tigress and tweed
Oh, lentheric, you carry it
I'm tired, grin and bear it
The truth of it is you carry it
Future, you and your chariot

Say a prayer for me (Ah)
'Cause I don't get no sleep (Ah)
Say a prayer for me, mm
Say, say, say
Chariot

But I been rallying the troops
Chariots aflame behind my Masi' coupe
Damu at these roots
It's thick too, made big fruit, big vibes
Always pressing that line
So full of love and light
The truth is black and white

Say a prayer for me (Ah)
'Cause I don't get no sleep (Ah)
Say a prayer for me, mm
Say, say, say
Say a prayer

Say, say, say
Mm, say, say, say
Say a prayer for me
