[00:14.100]If you ever hear that thunder
[00:18.850]Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
[00:23.810]Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
[00:28.680]Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in
[00:33.140]It's up to you
[00:43.690]If you ever hear that cryin'
[00:48.780]In the distance, like some siren
[00:53.510]Maybe there's a singer with no ring
[00:57.720]Around their little finger, oh, love
[01:04.030]And if I lose my voice
[01:06.460]If I have no choice but to go quiet, hmm
[01:13.850]Won't you sing for me
[01:16.490]A melody into the night there?
[01:23.790]If I die too young
[01:26.450]And the wolf he comes
[01:28.140]Fee-fi-fo-fum, hmm
[01:33.560]If I die too young (ooh)
[01:36.170]And locusts come
[01:38.030]Then run, run, run free
[01:48.100]If you ever hear that gunshot
[01:52.930]You may think 'bout what you do, but you don't gotta
[01:57.890]Say a prayer
[02:00.320]Think of mother
[02:02.620]I am a rock
[02:05.640]Oh, yeah
[02:07.840]If you ever hear that sound now
[02:13.030]If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
[02:17.630]Think of others
[02:20.230]Be their cover
[02:22.080]I am what they're not
[02:27.480]Pray for Paris
[02:30.020]They cannot scare us
[02:32.500]Or stop the music, no
[02:37.550]You've got a sweet voice, child
[02:42.020]Why don't you use it?
[02:47.860]And if I die too young
[02:50.390]If the gunmen come, I'm full of love
[02:57.240]So release me, every piece of me
[03:02.200]Up above, up above
[03:12.150]Love my mama and my papa
[03:16.910]Love my sister, can't stand the coppers
[03:22.000]Up in their choppers
[03:25.040]Oh, flying overhead
[03:29.330]49 dead
[03:32.520]Singing, oh, my Lord, carry me home
[03:37.520]Oh, my Lord, carry me home
[03:42.730]Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
[03:52.210]And if I die too young
[03:54.730]For something I ain't done
[03:56.680]Carry my name every day
[04:01.560]Oh, I'm sorry, oh, I'm sorry
[04:06.700]Freddie Gray
[04:11.520]Oh, sleep easy
[04:13.810]Like baby Jesus
[04:16.640]In a manger
[04:21.300]Oh, sleep easy
[04:23.790]Like little Jesus
[04:26.210]Beautiful stranger
[04:31.670]If I die too young
[04:34.050]Let all that I've done
[04:36.340]Be remembered, hmm
[04:41.090]I'll sleep easy
[04:43.700]Like baby Jesus
[04:46.190]In His manger
[04:50.880]I'll sleep easy
[04:53.460]Like little Jesus
[04:55.770]Safe from danger
[05:01.090]Carry onward
[05:03.330]Like some songbird
[05:05.620]Beautiful stranger
[05:10.790]Carry onward
[05:13.180]Like some songbird
[05:15.450]Beautiful stranger
[05:21.650]Oh, my Lord
[05:25.260]Beautiful stranger
[05:31.490]Oh, my Lord
[05:35.120]Beautiful stranger
