Ms. Mohammed


I started writing the lyrics during the Israel/Gaza conflict of 2014 – then Ferguson hit international headlines and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement followed and finally completed the song at the beginning of the refugee crisis in Syria. It’s about how humanity constantly finds itself in situations that we swear should never happen again except we clearly only feel that way in hindsight. Never is a place and time.
Still, silent and bruised, waiting on the truth
There is a God that we know
Remember when we said never again
How do we save what we know?

Waiting on a sign from life
Never is a place and time
Screaming with our tongues untied
Never is a place and time

Woo ooh ooh oohh

We're drowning in lies, waiting on time
To tell the truth that we know
We're hollow and dry twisted and tied
No one has heard what we know

Waiting on the world outside
Never is a place and time
Screaming with our tongues on fire
Never will our voices tire

Woo ooh ooh oohh

Complicit and keen, coward and vile
Blood on your hands, yeah we know
We won't pretend, we said never again
Justice is served as we go

Waiting on a sign from life
Never is a place and time
Screaming with our tongues untied
Never is a place and time

Woo ooh ooh ohh

It's coming, The fight of our lives
We summon, the will to survive

Woo ooh ooh ohh
