There is a man that I know for seventeen years he never spoke
Guessed he had nothing to say he opened his mouth on judgement day
I listened with all of my might, I was scared by the look in his eyes
Like he'd already lost the fight and there was no hope ever in sight
No hope in the air, no hope in the water
Not even for me your last serving daughter
Why fear death? Be scared of living
Oh hearts are small and ever thinning
There is no hope ever of winning
Oh why fear death? Be scared of living
I have seen men provoked and I have seen lives revoked
And I looked at my life and I choked from there no more ever I spoke
I can't give up that quick my life is a candle and a wick
You can put it out but you can't break it down in the end we are waiting to be lit
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me you last serving daughter
A friend is a friend forever and a good one will never leave never
But you've never been south and what rolls off your mouth you will never understand ever
You speak minds handed down to you by the lies handed down by your truth
And your angels that dance at your wail will mask your scrabbling youth
I forgave you your short comings and ignored your childish behaviour
Laid a kiss on your head and before I left said stay away from fleeting favour
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me your last serving daughter
Pick up your hope lord, sling it to me if we are to battle I must not be weak
And give us your strength word and your food and your water
Oh I am your saviour your last serving daughter
There's hope in the air, there's hope in the water
But sadly not me your last serving daughter
