Dead Start - The Wind, the Rain (feat. Momo Earle, Elijah Muhammad & RJ Gabriel)

See Crabbeard growing up, he be already six months old
And I don't know if he will be feared, oh no
Of course he will, he is your only son
His beard be not grown, he's not even eight months old
I just worry that he won't be feared, oh no
Of course he will, now shut your damn mouth

I know you're right, he'll be a fine man
I know you're right

I don't understand the wind, the rain
I'm just a babe, a pirate babe
And though I'll grow so fierce and tall
My life's just started, I know nothing at all

Crabbeard is now six, let's take him to a whippin
I don't think he's ready for that, oh no
I meant to talk to you about
About what? We should really stop the whippings
But our slaves need to be whipped, oh no
They really don't, they're humans, woah

Crabbeard, listen to me
Promise me

You won't whip your slaves when you're in charge
Your dad has no respect for all
Their lives and such, now go have fun
And skip round the ship deck all day and night

La la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la
La la la, La la la
La la la la la
La la la la
La la la la la
La la la, La... oh

Oh, baby, come over here (I do declare!)
Shalt I compare thee to the water?
Can't let my wife find out (UwU, your wife?)
That would really suck, huh huh huh huh (Okay!)
Oh, yarg!

I saw my father, he was kissin' another woman
I thought I saw my father, he was kissin' another woman

I don't think my heart can take much more of this
I don't think my heart can take much more

Me mother falls to the ground, I hold her lifeless body
I look at her in the eyes, I see the same angel I've always known
She died of a broken heart, a broken heart

Thinkin' of all that you ever said, I still believe you were heaven sent
All that you ever said, you were truly heaven sent
All that you ever said, you truly were the best
Mother in the pirate land, now listen here, dad

She never believed all your lies, I never believed anything you said, for one
It's unbelievable: you'd respect a woman like her

I'm just a man, I live here too
So don't talk back to me, don't talk back to me
I do not need your sympathy
I love you but get the hell out of my face

I can't accept you as my dad (I can't accept you as my dad)
You know I really miss our old life

You're eighteen years old, your mom is gone
How dare you say I'm not your pa
I raised you right, I raised you well
Now go to your cupboard and don't act out again
I now understand the wind, the rain
The way you make me feel these days
Go fuck yourself, you dirty pirate
You'll never earn my respect again
You'll never earn my respect again
You'll never earn my respect again
You'll never earn my respect again
You'll never earn my respect again
