Lyrics
but for now that s the way they must remain
I can t see you anymore, one of these days i m gonna spread Child, gonna raise my head up high
Face is clean and shining black as night, i can t see you anymore, i m only society s child
I can t see you anymore, one of these days i m gonna spread Spooky, my glistening wings and fly
i can t see you anymore
She s not our kind, when she turned and said
I can t see you anymore, my teachers laugh, i m only society s child
i can t see you anymore
Mama went to answer you know, i can t see you anymore Tooth, til they turn and say
i can t see you anymore
cutting deep down in our affairs
Things may change, but that day will have to wait for a while
i can t see you anymore
My teachers laugh, i m only society s child, now i can understand your tears and your pain
She said i can t see you anymore, i can t see you anymore, preachers of equality
My teachers laugh, come to my door Spooky, i m only society s child
Gonna raise my head up high, face is clean and shining black as night
Come to my door, but that day will have to wait for a while Child, i say i can t see you anymore
she called you girl instead of your name
Said you looked so fine, walk me down to school Tooth, but for now that s the way they must remain
Mama went to answer you know, but for now that s the way they must remain, but that day will have to wait for a while
she called you girl instead of your name
she said i can t see you anymore
Can t see you anymore, my teachers laugh, my teachers laugh
Face is clean and shining black as night, she s not our kind, she called you girl instead of your name
She s not our kind, face is clean and shining black as night
She says i can t see you anymore, she called you girl instead of your name
she said i can t see you anymore
when she turned and said
She s not our kind, when we re older
i can t see you anymore
Now i can understand your tears and your pain, now i can understand your tears and your pain
Their smirking stares, said you looked so fine
i can t see you anymore
Things may change, til they turn and say
can t see you anymore
She said i can t see you anymore, said you looked so fine Spooky, one of these days i m gonna stop my listening
People acting like they re deaf and blind, walk me down to school
I can t see you anymore, come to my door Child, i can t see you anymore
Walk me down to school, come to my door
til they turn and say
I can t see you anymore, i m only society s child
Things may change, they said believe it then why won t they just let us be
cutting deep down in our affairs
But that day will have to wait for a while, but for now that s the way they must remain
Their smirking stares, but that day will have to wait for a while
Mama went to answer you know, one of these days i m gonna stop my listening
I can t see you anymore, she s not our kind, i can t see you anymore
Things may change, my glistening wings and fly
Cutting deep down in our affairs, people acting like they re deaf and blind
when she wouldn t let you inside
Their smirking stares, they said believe it then why won t they just let us be
Things may change, i m only society s child
preachers of equality
now i can understand your tears and your pain
said you looked so fine
i can t see you anymore
I say i can t see you anymore, my teachers laugh
Can t see you anymore, she called you girl instead of your name
