Lyrics Cassandra Wilson

Cassandra Wilson

Rock This Calling

this world may be so unkind

blindness abounds, deaf to the sounds

sweeter than angels' voices

calling from beyond the water

black child break wild

move this world, no need to fear

all the tears and the pain

will dissipate like clouds in summer

after rain that rings with thunder

spirits move through you

day by day, day by day

now is the time for redesigning a mind

you will need to rock this calling

and send the mighty swifly falling

swiftly falling, falling
