Hush Child (Get You Through This Silent Night)

Silent night
 Holy night
 Poverty on the rise
 Wealthy reverend in designer clothes
 Homeless children with frostbitten toes
 Sleeping in the street
 Sleeping in the street
 I ain't tryna be philosophical
 But it's not logical
 Some folks out here freezing, others chilling like it's tropical
 The indifference is very crazy
 Like poverty's contagious
 My hands are dirty but I'm still worthy
 Step in my shoes and walk in some mercy
 They say this is your punishment for such poor judgment
 But you must've lost your mind
 How you gon feed it when you're barely eating?
 Get ready for the welfare life
 I ain't tryna hear it
 You make the bed, lay in it
 But I'm way too strong for you to break my spirit
 Is it me?
 Am I the cause of all my mother's misery?
 This cloud of secrecy on my paternity
 Did my very birth destroy my whole family?
 I'm just a sinner, I know who I am
 Just a beginner, I'm not yet a man
 Send me a signal, I'll follow your light
 Just help me through this silent night
 Hush child, it'll be alright
 I'll get you through this silent night
 Hush child, it'll be alright
 I'll get you through this silent night
 This ain't living
 I got a mouth to feed
 But I can't make these ends meet
 Got an eviction notice
 with my luck don't hear my prayers
 I never been this scared
 The silence is too loud for me
 Life just ain't fair
 Is anyone out there?
 Does anyone care?
 Is anyone listening?
 Is anyone there?
 Just let me know that I'm a part of your plan
 That you're watching over and know who I am
 From where we are now?
 How do we find our way?
 Alone in the darkness, scared
 With no place to stay
 Hush child, it'll be alright
 I'll get you through this silent night
 Hush child, it'll be alright
 I'll get you through this silent night
 Hush child, it'll be alright
 We'll do this together
 Sleep in heavenly peace
 Sleep in heavenly peace
