Number One
Portugal. The Man Richie Havens Son Little Lyrics
Freedom, freedom
Freedom, freedom
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long way from my home
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
When the morning came
Like another's painBut didn't know to fade
Like the sound it made
Let's go down the drain
With the falling rain
Wash away the stains
In that evening shade
It's that sufferin'
Don't know why it brings
Such sweet memories
Will be the enemy
But you'll come out alright (yeah)
I know it seems there's no end in sight (yeah)
But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But you don't know how
But you don't know how
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
All the trails we blazed
Have long since been paved
Leading the modern age
On down memory lane
Can't turn the page
Like it's just a phase
Somehow still be amazed
That the leaves had changed
It's that sufferin'
Don't know why it brings
Such sweet memories
Will be the end of me
But you'll come out alright
(Yeah) I know it seems there's no end in sight
(Yeah) But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But ya don't, no, no
But ya don't, no, no
But you'll come out alright
(Yeah) I know it seems there's no end in sight
(Yeah) But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But ya don't, no, no
But ya don't, no, no
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
When I need my brother, yeah
Father, yeah
Sister, yeah
Mother, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's gonna be all right telling white lies
Of ate nights 'til sunrise
'Cause when we rise up, we rise up above
All of the chaos to get lost
Don't make me, don't make me, wake up
'Cause I'm gonna be like a drug
That never gets old or gives hope
But, baby, you make me feel loved
Freedom, freedom
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long way from my home
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
When the morning came
Like another's painBut didn't know to fade
Like the sound it made
Let's go down the drain
With the falling rain
Wash away the stains
In that evening shade
It's that sufferin'
Don't know why it brings
Such sweet memories
Will be the enemy
But you'll come out alright (yeah)
I know it seems there's no end in sight (yeah)
But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But you don't know how
But you don't know how
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
All the trails we blazed
Have long since been paved
Leading the modern age
Can't turn the page
Like it's just a phase
Somehow still be amazed
That the leaves had changed
It's that sufferin'
Don't know why it brings
Such sweet memories
Will be the end of me
But you'll come out alright
(Yeah) I know it seems there's no end in sight
(Yeah) But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But ya don't, no, no
But ya don't, no, no
But you'll come out alright
(Yeah) I know it seems there's no end in sight
(Yeah) But it doesn't mean you can't put up a fight
But ya don't, no, no
But ya don't, no, no
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone
When I need my brother, yeah
Father, yeah
Sister, yeah
Mother, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's gonna be all right telling white lies

Don't make me, don't make me, wake up
'Cause I'm gonna be like a drug
That never gets old or gives hope
But, baby, you make me feel loved

This song came out the day I lost a dear friend of mine who showed me Portugal. The Man. She loved this band so much and passed that love on to me. The day this video hit youtube was the same day she passed away and her 2 year old son is now a motherless child. The irony is almost too much but it just goes to show that coincidences in the universe are messages that true love can seep into the very things you hold dear. Thank you Portugal. The Man. RIP Audrey.

I’m so sorry for your loss. The angels thought she was too beautiful for Earth. Take care
