Tap Sticks Lyrics
[Verse 1: Emily Wurramara]
You fulla what’s the time of the day?
Woken to hell will it be okay?
Eyes wide shut cause I’m afraid
And all these thoughts
Invading my brain
[Chorus: Emily Wurramara]
And the time of the day is night time and the time of the day leaves me awake
And the time of the day is scary
I’m running from something I’m not supposed to be afraid
And the wake of the morning arises me
Great spirits come and walk with me
And the sound of the tapsticks bring me back home
Where I’m protected and I’m not alone
[Verse 2: Emily Wurramara]
Walking around bare feet
Reminds me of what freedom felt like o be
And roaming the streets I look over my shoulders they judge me stereotypically
[Chorus: Emily Wurramara]
And the time of the day is night time and the time of the day leaves me awake
And the time of the day is scary
I’m running from something I’m not supposed to be afraid
And the wake of the morning arises me
Great spirits come and walk with me
And the sound of the tapsticks bring me back home
Where I’m protected and I’m not alone
[Outro: Emily Wurramara & Enosh Wurramara]
