album: Done Come Too Far


Done Come Too Far
Performed by Shemekia Copeland
Down there in the basement of hell
The children cry the women yell
Hardly move screaming in pain
All still trying to break those chains
Almost died in those boats
All these years later
Still tryin' to steal our votes
We done come too far to be gone
Come too far to be gone
If you think we're stopping
You got it wrong
We come too far to be gone
Saw you at the counter turned away
Workin' two jobs half the pay
Everyday another excuse
Freedom hung up by a noose
Beaten bloodied thrown in jail
God as my witness we ain't gonna fail
We done come too far to be gone
Come too far to be gone
If you think we're stopping
You got it wrong
We come too far to be gone
Tried everything to keep us down
But now it's us standing our ground
We'll be fighting a little longer
What don't kill us makes us stronger
What don't kill us makes us stronger
The past is past hard, hard feelings
Time to move ahead start with the healing
Hear this voice strong and loud
We're off our knees standing proud
We're gonna keep on movin' on Without any fears
We ain't reached the top
But we can see it from here
We can see it from here
We can see it from here
We done come too far to be gone
Come too far to be gone
If you think we're stopping
You got it wrong
We come too far to be gone
