Bridge Over Troubled Water Songtext
Yeah, I don′t know where to begin
So I'll start by saying I refuse to forget you
I refuse to be silenced
I refuse to neglect you
That′s for every last soul up in Grenfell
Even though I've never even met you
Cuh that could've been my mum′s house
Or that could′ve been my nephew
Now, that could've been me up there
Waving my white plain tee up there
With my friends on the ground tryna see up there
I just hope that you rest and you′re free up there
I can't feel your pain but it′s still what it is
Went to the block just to chill with the kids
Troubled waters come running past
I'ma be right there just to build you a bridge, yo
When you′re weary
And feeling small
When tears are in
Your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
So much pain in my heart
My community′s moving me
Choose to gleam as we′re facing the dark
Oh, when you're down and out, mhmm
When you′re on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
Yes, I will
And I'll take your part
Oh when darkness comes, oh
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
So I'll start by saying I refuse to forget you
I refuse to be silenced
I refuse to neglect you
That′s for every last soul up in Grenfell
Even though I've never even met you
Cuh that could've been my mum′s house
Or that could′ve been my nephew
Now, that could've been me up there
Waving my white plain tee up there
With my friends on the ground tryna see up there
I just hope that you rest and you′re free up there
I can't feel your pain but it′s still what it is
Went to the block just to chill with the kids
Troubled waters come running past
I'ma be right there just to build you a bridge, yo
When you′re weary
And feeling small
When tears are in
Your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
Oh, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
So much pain in my heart
My community′s moving me
Choose to gleam as we′re facing the dark
Oh, when you're down and out, mhmm
When you′re on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
Yes, I will
And I'll take your part
Oh when darkness comes, oh
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
