My Culture — текст песни (One Giant Leap & Robbie Williams)

When I look back over the years at the
Things that bring tears to my eyes
Poppa said we had to be wise to live long lives
Now I recognise what my father said before he died
Vocalised things I left unsaid
Left my spirit unfed for too long
I`m coming home to my family where I can be strong
For you I plan to be
Within me, my ancestry, giving me continuity

This is what my daddy told me
I wish he would hold me a little more than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame the blood in my veins
And bring pain to my sweet grandfather`s face
In his resting place
I`ll make haste to learn and not waste
Everything my forefathers earned in tears
For my culture

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm waters
Water to air
You`re on your feet again
Your feet again

Hello Dad remember me
I`m the man you`d thought I`d never be
I`m the boy who you reduced to tears
Dad I`ve been lonely for 27 years
Yeah that`s right my name`s Rob
I`m the one who landed the popstar`s job
I`m the one who you told look don`t touch
I`m the kid who wouldn`t amount to much

I believe in the senses sight and sound
I have always been too loud
Won`t you help me drown it out

I`m what I feel, what I`m feeling is surreal
I`m a mass of spinning wheels
Always digging in my heels
Now I`ve got the faith to

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm waters
Water to air
You`re on your feet again
Your feet again

This is what my daddy told me
I wish he would hold me a little more than he did
But he taught me my culture
And how to live positive
I never wanna shame the blood in my veins
And bring pain to my sweet grandfather`s face
In his resting place
I`ll make haste to learn and not waste
Everything my forefathers earned in tears
For my culture

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm waters
Water to air
You`re on your feet again
Your feet again

(For my culture)

Fall back again
Crawl from the warm waters
Water to air
You`re on your feet again
Your feet again

(For my culture)
