00:00:14.100 --> 00:00:19.900
Silver gray hair neatly
combed in place.
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:25.700
There were four generations
of love on her face.
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:33.400
She was so wise, no surprise
passed her eyes,
00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:37.600
She'd seen it all.
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:47.700
I was a child, oh, about
three or four.
00:00:47.800 --> 00:00:51.000
All day I'd ask questions.
00:00:51.100 --> 00:00:53.300
At night I'd ask more.
00:00:53.400 --> 00:01:08.300
But whenever; she never, would ever,
turn me away. No, no, ooh.
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.700
I'd say how can I be sure
what is right or wrong ?
00:01:11.800 --> 00:01:15.000
And why does what I want
always take so long ?
00:01:15.100 --> 00:01:17.200
Please tell me where does God live
00:01:17.300 --> 00:01:21.300
And why won't He talk to me ?
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:23.200
I'd say, Grandma what is love ?
00:01:23.300 --> 00:01:25.100
Will I ever find out ?
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.900
Why are we so poor, what
is life about ?
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:38.200
I want to know the answers before
I fall off to sleep. Wooh, Ooh
00:01:38.300 --> 00:01:44.200
Slowly she rocked, lookin'
half asleep.
00:01:44.300 --> 00:01:46.600
Grandma yawned as she stretched.
00:01:46.700 --> 00:01:49.800
Then she started to speak.
00:01:49.900 --> 00:01:57.300
What she told me, would
mold me, and hold me
00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:05.300
Together inside. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:07.000
She said all the things you ask
00:02:07.100 --> 00:02:08.400
You will know someday.
00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:11.600
But you have got to live
in a patient way.
00:02:11.700 --> 00:02:13.400
God put us here by fate
00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:17.800
And by fate that means better days.
00:02:17.900 --> 00:02:21.200
She said, child we are all moons
in the dark of night.
00:02:21.300 --> 00:02:24.600
Ain't no morning gonna come
'til the time is right.
00:02:24.700 --> 00:02:30.300
Can't get to better days lest you
make it through the night.
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:35.300
You gotta make it through
the night, yes you do.
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:39.800
You can't get to no better days
00:02:39.900 --> 00:02:45.300
Unless you make it through the night.
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.600
Oh, you will see those better days
00:02:52.700 --> 00:02:56.700
But you gotta be patient.
00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:05.100
(Be patient) oh baby, be patient.
