Picking Up The Pieces - Beres Hammond

Picking up the pieces

Of a broken world

Tryna put it back together

Every time I try another

Tragedy comes by

Guess I'm gonna have

To start all over yes

This war isn't over yet

Another one has started

Hardly anytime to say

Goodbye to our dearly departed

Tears flowing deeper than

Rivers yet very few forgivers

Beats me I don't know why

We're gonna have to pull

Ourselves together

We gonna have sort it out

Gather all peacemakers

Scattered all about

Find a new direction 'cause

This one ain't working out

Talking to one of those with a clout

My little baby keep asking

Me daddy what's going on

Is it safe for me to go out

Today to the playground

Is the Boogie Man gonna

Get me and who is he anyway

I said honey the law forbids me to say

'Cause if I speak my mind

Chance is you won't have a dad

Don't want you to grow

Up to be one of the bad

You must go on make a change

Can't go on living this way

Pull ourselves together

Have sort it out

Gather all peacemakers

Scattered all about

Find a new direction

This one ain't working out

Talking to all the folks with a clout

Picking up the pieces

Of a broken world

Tryna put it back together

Every time I try

Another tragedy comes by

Guess I'm gonna have to start all over

This war isn't over yet

Another one has started

Hardly anytime to say

Goodbye to our dearly departed

Tears flowing deeper

Than rivers yet very few forgivers

Trust me I don't know why

I know we're gonna pull

Ourselves together

We gonna have sort it out

Gather all peacemakers

Scattered all about

Find a new direction

This one ain't working out

Talking to all the folks with a clout

Pull ourselves together have to sort it out

Gather all peacemakers scattered all about
