Lyrics Gil Scott-Heron

Gil Scott-Heron

Storm Music

What's that music playin' on the radio?

What's that music playin' everywhere I go?

I don't think I've ever heard

a sweeter feelin' in the whole wide world

than that music playin' in my heart.

From time to time the darkness comes along

to terrorize the weak and challenge the strong.

The storm is coming, it grows on the waves

from Johannesburg to Montego Bay.

What's that music playin' on the radio?

What's that music playin' everywhere I go?

I don't think I've ever seen

another music that could make me feel

like that music playin' in my heart.

Justice is coming on the wings of the storm.

We resist in the present for those yet unborn.

Freedom is spreading like the wings of a bird

and the message it carries has got to be heard.

What's that music playin' on the radio?

What's that music playin' everywhere I go?

I don't think I've ever heard

a sweeter feelin' in the whole wide world

than that music playin' in my heart.
