Respect the Elders
Lyrics
Grand People Your People My people Our People (repeat 2Xs) Lying in his bed curled up like a baby Unable to speak yet telling me many things A Whisper I could not hear but I saw his lips moving Trying to cover up all of the pain he felt inside In life seen many things Helped a lot of hurting people Now that it’s me Wondering when will help arrive (when echo 3Xs) CHORUS My life is valuable I’ve got so much left to give Do not cast me aside Open your eyes I am here See me, hear me, touch me, love me, visit me, hold me, rely on me I am your stone VERSE She sat in a wheel chair in a corner by the window As I passed her by our eyes met in silent conversation (silence spoken) Her peering made me bleed Loneliness clearly defined Here just sitting and waiting for one to come by my side I’m a living breathing person (breathing) You will miss me when I’m gone Know that it’s not my time yet I’m not ready to go CHORUS My life is valuable I’ve got so much left to give Do not cast me aside Open your eyes I am here See me, hear me, touch me, love me, visit me, hold me, rely on me I am your stone I am invisible They do not see me (rolling sound in the round) I used to carry you in the heart of my hands Like the birth of a nation, you required my breath Now that the page is turning, I’m in an infant stage You would feed a baby puppy, will you feed me I do not require much, just a moment of your time Come and read me a story (echo), leave me with your smile My life is valuable I’ve got so much left to give Do not cast me aside Open your eyes I am here I’m a living breathing person You will miss me when I’m gone Know that it’s not my time yet I’m not ready to go (ready to go) See me, hear me, touch me, love me, visit me, hold me, rely on me I am your stone
