Lyrics Kele – Yemaya
Text:
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
Bloodstream of the earth
Break your holy waters over us
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
It 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
