Community
(Osunlade, Yoruba People’s Music, Ascap, Sony Atv)

Got this letter from a friend who said her was high
She couldn’t feed her family even though she works and tries
I started thinking what could I do just to help her pain
Nothing showed its face and only silence left remained

“U say that people cannot feed themselves”
“u tell me people dying while people laugh”
“U tell me we don’t have food on our shelves”
“I tell u we gon’ make it right for ourselves”

We can grow for ourselves
For our community yeah
We can grow for ourselves
For our community yeah

We can make some..

Hot sauce
And lemonade
Bana shakes
And tofu bake
Persimmions
And lavender
And all the things
Ive never heard

We can grow for ourselves
For our community yeah
We can grow for ourselves
For our community yeah
(repeat)
