Mahal Kita - Emmy the Great[00:00:00]
Lyrics by:Emmy The Great[00:00:00]
Composed by:Emmy The Great[00:00:00]
Produced by:Doug SchadtI am walking through the city[00:00:00]
I am walking through the city[00:00:00]
With my ear down to the ground[00:00:02]
Trying to find something I lost[00:00:05]
I'll know it by the sound[00:00:07]
You are underneath the bridge[00:00:10]
And all the cars are driving by[00:00:12]
And I say stranger won't you let me come[00:00:14]
And sit with you a while[00:00:17]
'Cause my tiredness is luminous[00:00:19]
It trails me like smoke[00:00:22]
But here beneath this road[00:00:25]
I think I've found the antidote[00:00:26]
In those dances in formation[00:00:29]
In those people singing songs[00:00:31]
In the woman slicing papaya outside Louis Vuitton[00:00:34]
You say[00:00:41]
I know that we are stars[00:00:41]
'Cause the moon follows me home[00:00:43]
I know that we are stars 'cause the sun is yellow[00:00:50]
Breathing in the noise from all the people in their cars[00:00:59]
You teach me how to say Mahal Kita[00:01:08]
The world has turned to Blade Runner[00:01:17]
These buildings they have eyes[00:01:19]
Men they stare down at us from glass towers in the skies[00:01:22]
You tell me that your bedroom is seven foot by five[00:01:26]
And I don't know who made the gap[00:01:31]
But it just keeps on getting wide[00:01:33]
And I won't be the one to say[00:01:36]
That this world isn't fair[00:01:38]
Let the Catholics and St Joseph tell the story in their prayers[00:01:40]
Of how we came to fill the space[00:01:46]
Between heaven and hell[00:01:48]
While the hawkers sell their handbags[00:01:50]
On the street outside Chanel[00:01:53]
I know that we are stars[00:01:58]
'Cause the moon follows me home[00:02:00]
I know that we are stars 'cause the sun is yellow[00:02:06]
Breathing in the noise from all the people in their cars[00:02:15]
It's spilling from our lips Mahal Kita[00:02:25]
And you are free[00:02:33]
And nobody can tell you that you're not[00:02:41]
Free[00:02:45]
Mahal Kita[00:02:50]
Mahal Kita[00:02:55]
Mahal Kita[00:03:00]
Mahal Kita[00:03:04]
An old Chinese woman sells the card we're sitting on[00:03:24]
Tonight she'll come and tidy it away when we are gone[00:03:29]
And the streets will be quiet[00:03:33]
And the banks will be closed[00:03:36]
And the taxis will be lining up to take the tourists home[00:03:38]
Tomorrow I'll keep searching for the rhythm[00:03:43]
Of a song[00:03:46]
That I once heard once as a child[00:03:48]
Though the melody has long long gone[00:03:50]
And I will think of you every time I'm here[00:03:54]
Lit up by a Tiffany's that used to be DeBear's[00:03:58]
While the people turns to crowds[00:04:05]
And the crowd turns to a throng[00:04:07]
And a woman slices papaya outside Louis Vuitton[00:04:14]
