Lyrics of Kwame MulZz – 2 Girls (Mary & Joana)

Oh I have a girl

Have a girl called Mary,
She moves like a gentle breeze,
Speaks soft truth to my life,
Puts my worried mind at ease.

Sometimes she’s so easy,
When the world is burning fast,
I’m trying to get to the lifeboat,
She is trying to meditate through the blast.

Have another girl called Joana,
She fire like a spark at night,
Dreams spillin’ from her pockets,
Heart blazing in plain sight.
But her thunder keeps on rollin’,
Her storms don’t ever land,
Ideas fly like lightning but slip right through her lens.
Oh my Mary-Joana

Two rivers runnin’ through my soul.
One slow one deep, one wild and bold.
Lord, I’m entangled in their flow
you don’t want the Mary nor Joana smoke

Mary’s got her healing hands, she whispers, Baby, breathe again,
Turn the chaos in my chest into a quiet, softer wind.
But sometimes I need fire, not a song to soothe my skin
She pulls me back to center when I’m drowning in my sin

And Joana got that fevered glow,
She will drag you out past dawn,
Changing futures in the alleyways
Till every fear is gone.
But her flames can burn too bright,
Leave shadows where I stand,
She will lift you to the heavens then forget to let me land
Oh Mary – Joana
Two rivers running through my soul

In the night I hear them
Mary with her moonlit grace,
Joana with her wildfired eyes
Two spirits taking turns
Pullin’ at the same place in my chest.
And I wonder
Is a man meant to choose between calm waters or restless seas
Or just learn how to sail?

Oh my Mary and
Oh my Mary and Joana
Two rivers runnin’ through my soul.
One slow one deep, one wild and bold.
Lord, I’m entangled in their flow
you don’t want the Mary nor Joana smoke
