[Verse 1]
I have my mother's dreams, I have my father's eyes
You can't take that from me, just go ahead and try
The Crescent City sleeps, while giants in the sky
Preparing to unleash, let loose a mighty cry
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Can nobody save us? Will anyone try?
The bayou is burning, the cypress has died
And all alone they're saying
[Chorus]
Help is on the way (They said, they said)
Help is on the way (They said, they said)
One by land, two by sea, right there in front of me
Help is on the way
[Verse 2]
Five thousand feet below, as black smoke engulfs the sky
The ocean floor explodes, eleven mothers cry
My bones all resonate a burning lullaby
You can't take that from me, just go ahead and try
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She stands at the shoreline with hands in the air
Her words pierce the dark night, "Does anyone care?"
And all alone they're saying
I have my mother's dreams, I have my father's eyes
You can't take that from me, just go ahead and try
The Crescent City sleeps, while giants in the sky
Preparing to unleash, let loose a mighty cry
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Can nobody save us? Will anyone try?
The bayou is burning, the cypress has died
And all alone they're saying
[Chorus]
Help is on the way (They said, they said)
Help is on the way (They said, they said)
One by land, two by sea, right there in front of me
Help is on the way
[Verse 2]
Five thousand feet below, as black smoke engulfs the sky
The ocean floor explodes, eleven mothers cry
My bones all resonate a burning lullaby
You can't take that from me, just go ahead and try
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She stands at the shoreline with hands in the air
Her words pierce the dark night, "Does anyone care?"
And all alone they're saying
