All the kids run around playing free and fun
While the dogs lap around the can

Falling down climbing trees swimming in the river
No life jacket on their backs

Daughters sharpen their knives and they hunt for food
Others watch their children grow

Mothers going to work
And they shake the hands of a corporate tycoon's ghost

And I'm afraid

Ah I'm so afraid

Ah what if I lose

Is what I think to myself
I'm fine in my shell
I'm afraid of it all afraid of loving you
I'm a gift and a curse to the wilderness

When the leaves only turn to brown

The birds fly high and they wink at all of the grandmothers on the ground

Rain pours down in the village dens
My cousins fetch for lunch

While I sit in my room writing letters to my church and things and such

'Cause I'm afraid

Ah I'm so afraid

Ah what if I lose

Is what I think to myself
I'm fine in my shell
I'm afraid of it all afraid of loving you

Cousins all in the creek

And the rain pours down the ghetto dancing yeah

I'm so afraid

Ah I'm so afraid

Ah what if I lose

Is what I think to myself

I'm fine in my shell
I'm afraid of it all afraid of loving you

I'm afraid afraid of loving you
Cousins all in the creek

And the rain pours down the ghetto dancin' yeah
