Trouble Songtext
von Meshell Ndegeocello

What′s another word for trouble?
Alright

Would you?
Would you keep?
Would you keep me in the-?
Would you keep me in the trouble loop?

Would you?
Would you keep?
Would you keep me in the-?
Would you keep me in the trouble loop?

Just be here, right here, right now
We can't lose our way (all my people)
The struggle starts now right here today (all my people)
We talk about the truth
It′s time to make a change
Put our aching hearts to use


What's another word for trouble?
'Cause that′s what we′re in
Everyone's down for the struggle until it begins
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing
What′s another word for trouble?

Would you keep me in the trouble loop?
Would you?
Would you keep me?
Would you keep me in the trouble loop?
Trouble (ooh)

Still up, kicking alive when they shot you right back down
They don't want you, they don′t want you around
You bleed for love and law and not for nothing to keep me free
I'm having a hard time with this weather, I can′t stand the sight of spring

I started out five times a dog
And if it mattered, I could tell you
The difference in a boy of twenty
And a man of 33, yeah

What's another word for trouble?
'Cause that′s what we′re in (that's what we′re in)
Everyone's down for the struggle (struggle) until it begins (until it begins)
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing (hard to sing)
What′s another word for trouble? (What's another word for?)


What′s another word for trouble?
'Cause that's what we′re in
Everyone′s down for the struggle until it begins
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing
What's another word for trouble? (What′s another word for?)

He makes it simple by saying, you know
This act has been carried out by his countrymen to destroy the lives of hundreds of thousands
Of people simply because they're black
But that′s not the total crime, that's, that′s messed up
But the real crime is that people who've committed the crime wanna vibe like it's never happened

The sound connected us and you should see
How much this touch is moving me
It′s like a fall, but I got you if you do
Nothing is quite as full or indiscreet
No violent tongue, no loose key
I see you smiling, but

What′s another word for trouble?
'Cause that′s what we're in
Everyone′s down for the struggle until it begins
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing
What's another word for trouble?

What′s another word for trouble?
'Cause that's what we′re in
Everyone′s down for the struggle until it begins
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing
What's another word for trouble?

′Til it begins
Pain makes you humble, hurt is hard to sing (um)
Hold my people, hold my people
Raise my child, eat my grapes
Write my curses, sing my songs
Speak my love as the sun rises
As the sun sets, speaking from depths
Down at the crosses to be forgotten
