Poorly recorded cover of a childhood song.
"Let me play you the sound of my people"

Doe maar - Sinds 1 dag of 2 (Cover enregistrée avec les pieds)

Lyrics:

VR 1:
Isabella was a social worker
With a beautiful 2-year-old daughter
That little girl’s story was a tearjerker
Irony being her abusive father
But only when it came to her mother
Bella had depression and knew the system
Abusers with no proof rarely get prison
And Bella would bear the brunt of the aftermath

CH:
Money and lace
Covered almost all the pain
Tears on her face
Ever-present to wipe away
Bruises and scrapes
That happened every day
There’s only so much
That you can cover up
With money and lace

VR 2:
Well, the months went by slow as molasses
Bella kept her head down with hats and 
Glasses
Her little girl, now 3, knew what was happenin’
And that broke her heart more than the hits 
and slappin’

(CH)

BRI:
He was drunk as hell
Leaving that party         
With a plan in his mind
Speeding down the highway
Toddler in the car 
He pulled off to the side
And said “Tonight
You’re committing suicide.”
But she had planted that phone
In the glove compartment
Years of working DV department
The driver who saw him push his wife
Called 911 thank God she survived
The cops pull up to his door
Now she don’t get hit no more

CH:
Love and lace
Covered all those bitter days
Smiles on their face
As they finally walk away
With all his money and lace

Dat Ik Je Mis
