My Child (feat. Babatunde Olatunji) - Youssou N'Dour

Your child, my child Your child, my child When I got the call from you It was a shot to my heart Feeling lost and confused Am I doin' my part? They say the reasons are complex Then they change the subject As you live with the effects We move on and we forget We move on and we forget What can I say? How can I make it better for you? I wish I could lay the answers at your feet Your child, my child Your pain, my pain I wanna say I'm sure that it will never happen again My child is your child My pain is your pain I know that things will change When enough of us will say Enough, enough, enough All this fear that it brings up We bolt our doors and windows shut And it paralyzеs us And we make it about us It is and isn't about us What will it take For us to bе safe and still be free? I wish I could lay the answers at your feet Your child, my child Your pain, my pain I wanna say I'm sure that it will never happen again My child is your child My pain is your pain I know that things will change When enough of us will say Enough, enough, enough (hey, oh) Enough, enough, enough When enough of us show up When enough of us cry out When enough of us say "no" When enough of us say "enough" When more of us get mad When each of us breaks down When all of us scream loud (no) When enough of us say Enough, enough, enough (oh, yeah, oh yeah) Enough, enough, enough (will change, will change, will change) When I got the call from you It was a shot to my heart Feeling lost and confused Am I doin' my part?

Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Why the sudden change? Say my name, say my name If no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Better say my name Any other day I would call, you would say "Baby, how's your day?" But today, it ain't the same Every other word is "uh huh", "yeah, okay" Could it be that you are at the crib with another lady If you took it there First of all let me say I am not the one to sit around and be played So prove yourself to me I'm the girl that you claim Why don't you say the things That you said to me yesterday (I know you say that I am assuming things) Something's going down that's the way it seems (Shouldn't be the reason why you're acting strange) If nobody's holding you back from me ('Cause I know how you usually do) When you say everything to me times two (Why can't you just tell the truth?) If somebody's there then tell me who Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Why the sudden change? Say my name, say my name If no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Better say my name What is up with this? Tell the truth, who you with? How would you like it if I came over with my clique? Don't try to change it now, saying you gotta bounce When two seconds ago you said you just got in the house It's hard to believe that you are at home by yourself When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else Just this question, why do you feel you gotta lie? Gettin' caught up in your game, when you cannot say my name (I know you say that I am assuming things) Something's going down that's the way it seems (Shouldn't be the reason why you're acting strange) If nobody's holding you back from me ('Cause I know how you usually do) When you say everything to me times two (Why can't you just tell the truth?) If somebody's there then tell me who Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Why the sudden change? Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Better say my name Hold up, sweetie Slow your roll What are you out of your mind, out of control? Questioning me like I'm a criminal or something Stole your heart or something Like I'm up to something You must be with girlfriends, gossipin' And chicks hate on Kobe cause he ain't with them Feel me now, listen how silly you sound Suspecting a voice in the background Come on now your trust is foul Checking messages now how old are we now? Probably hate me now like Nostradamus I'm just keeping it real wit you honest My silence forgive I was stressing then I was shopping with my ex for lingerie For my newfound love, that would be you No shame in your name, I'll say what I want to (I know you say that I am assuming things) Something's going down that's the way it seems (Shouldn't be the reason why you're acting strange) If nobody's holding you back from me ('Cause I know how you usually do) When you say everything to me times two (Why can't you just tell the truth?) If somebody's there then tell me who Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Why the sudden change? Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Better say my name Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Why the sudden change? Say my name, say my name When no one is around you Say baby I love you If you ain't runnin' game Say my name, say my name You actin' kinda shady Ain't callin' me baby Better say my name
