My mother used to whore herself

And my father

Would reap the benefits of her labor

Absent from her own life

I remember

She would scrub the floors for the white folks

Just to come home
拖着疲惫身躯回家
To cook and to clean
洗衣做饭日夜操劳
For the man who broke her
却侍奉着伤害她的男人
And i love to watch her dance to the tunes on

The soul stations yeah

Just to ease her mind
那是她片刻的喘息
But my mother

She was vindictive in her own fashion

So she passed down to me her traits
