Nina Cried Power - Lyrics
Nina Cried Power
Song by Hozier
It's not the waking, it's the risingIt is the grounding of a foot uncompromisingIt's not forgoing of the lie, It's not the opening of eyesIt's not the waking, it's the rising
It's not the shade we should be castingIt's the light, it's the obstacle that casts itIt's the heat that drives the lightIt's the fire it ignitesIt's not the waking, it's the rising
It's not the song, it is the singingIt's the heaven of the human spirit ringingIt is the bringing of the lineIt is the bearing of the rhymeIt's not the waking, it's the rising
And I could cry power (power)Power (power)Power, Lord!Nina cried powerBillie cried powerMavis cried powerAnd I could cry powerPower (power)Power (power)Power, Lord!Curtis cried powerPatti cried powerNina cried power
It's not the wall, but what's behind itOh, the fear of fellow men is near assignmentAnd everything that we're deniedBy keeping the divideIt's not the waking, it's the rising
And I could cry power (power)Power (power)Power (power)Power, Lord!Nina cried powerLennon cried powerJames Brown cried powerAnd I could cry powerPower (power)Power (power)PowerBilly cried powerJoni cried powerNina cried power
And I could cry power
Power has been cried by those stronger than meStraight into the face that tells you to rattle your chainsIf you love being free
Ah, Lord, I could cry powerPower (power)'Cause power is my love when my love reaches to meJames Brown cried powerSeger cried powerMarvin cried powerYeah ah, powerJames cried powerMillie cried powerPatti cried powerBillie, powerDylan, powerWoody, powerNina cried power
