00:00:15.600 --> 00:00:21.400
Silver gray hair neatly
combed in place.
00:00:21.500 --> 00:00:27.200
There were four generations
of love on her face.
00:00:27.300 --> 00:00:34.900
She was so wise, no surprise
passed her eyes,
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.100
She'd seen it all.
00:00:43.100 --> 00:00:49.200
I was a child, oh, about
three or four.
00:00:49.300 --> 00:00:52.500
All day I'd ask questions.
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:54.800
At night I'd ask more.
00:00:54.900 --> 00:01:09.800
But whenever; she never, would ever,
turn me away. No, no, ooh.
00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:13.200
I'd say how can I be sure
what is right or wrong ?
00:01:13.300 --> 00:01:16.500
And why does what I want
always take so long ?
00:01:16.600 --> 00:01:18.700
Please tell me where does God live
00:01:18.800 --> 00:01:22.800
And why won't He talk to me ?
00:01:22.900 --> 00:01:24.700
I'd say, Grandma what is love ?
00:01:24.800 --> 00:01:26.600
Will I ever find out ?
00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:29.400
Why are we so poor, what
is life about ?
00:01:29.500 --> 00:01:39.700
I want to know the answers before
I fall off to sleep. Wooh, Ooh
00:01:39.800 --> 00:01:45.700
Slowly she rocked, lookin'
half asleep.
00:01:45.800 --> 00:01:48.100
Grandma yawned as she stretched.
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.300
Then she started to speak.
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:58.800
What she told me, would
mold me, and hold me
00:01:58.900 --> 00:02:06.800
Together inside. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:02:06.900 --> 00:02:08.500
She said all the things you ask
00:02:08.600 --> 00:02:09.900
You will know someday.
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:13.100
But you have got to live
in a patient way.
00:02:13.200 --> 00:02:14.900
God put us here by fate
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:19.300
And by fate that means better days.
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:22.700
She said, child we are all moons
in the dark of night.
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.100
Ain't no morning gonna come
'til the time is right.
00:02:26.200 --> 00:02:31.800
Can't get to better days lest you
make it through the night.
00:02:31.900 --> 00:02:36.800
You gotta make it through
the night, yes you do.
00:02:36.900 --> 00:02:41.300
You can't get to no better days
00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:46.800
Unless you make it through the night.
00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:54.100
Oh, you will see those better days
00:02:54.200 --> 00:02:58.200
But you gotta be patient.
00:02:58.300 --> 00:03:06.600
(Be patient) oh baby, be patient.
