Lyrics
There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
This is how she's dying
She's dyin' to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives in a world she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Hurts like brand new shoes

In case anyone might be wondering Pearls represent grains of rice. For the poor people in Somalia rice is precious like pearls. This song is so deep and the visual was mind blowing!!!

@Albert Cantu How can you tell?

@Albertcan2 7 лет назад

Henry Appiah I saw an interview where they explained how they came up with the song.

@henryappiah4983 7 лет назад

Albert Cantu Ah... Why rice though?

Henry Appiah In Somalia rice is a very popular dish.

Sade is amazing. She sings this song with grace, serenity, and power while expressing the pain of the woman all at the same time. The simplicity and elegance of Sade in front of the sun rising in the beginning and set, in the end, feel so symbolic and fit well. This song feels like it would be in an Oscar-winning documentary or movie about a serious world issue. I feel like watching Sade sing is timeless beauty and talent in motion.

@davecroston2914 7 лет назад

There should be a special award created for this performance.This is the most emotionally-charged, thought provoking & sadly beautiful song EVER. The only chance this could ever be equalled might be from something Sade may write & record in the future--Can't wait for that!
