This is a cover of legendary Earth, Wind, & Fire's classic record, "September"! This rendition was reimagined to help us all remember our loved ones who have transitioned before us. May we always remember their love!!! A special s/o to our September ancestors, my paternal grandmother, Janice "Moiran" Williams, and my angel niece, Kamaiu Sol Bailey. We will ALWAYS remember! 9/20🙏🏾9/30
lyrics
VERSE 1:
Do you remember (yeah)
The 21st night of September, yeah-yeah, (yeah)
Love was changing the minds of pretenders (yeaaaah)
While chasing the clouds away, chasing the clouds away
Our hearts were ringing (yeah)
In the key that our souls were singing (sing-ing)
As we danced in the night
Remember, yeah) (yeah)
How the stars stole the night away
Oh and we say
CHORUS:
Ba-dee-ya
Ooo-woo
Say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya
We were dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day
Tell me do you remember, aye...
RAP VERSE:
SoLauren, I can feel all of this
I feel it all in September
The good, the bad, the highs, the lows,
My body still remember
The day my baby girl was born
It changed me for the better
It taught me Love and Grief were undoubtedly bound together
I know this will last forever just like Love do
Shine to make a way just like the sun do
I pray The Most High bless me with some sons too
There's blessings in the balance
Rehearse these knowings daily just for practice
Love is the greatest asset on the atlas, feel me?
BRIDGE:
Do you remember?
Ah-yeah
I just wanna know, do you remember
All those good times we shared
Do you remember
The true love we share today
Oooooooh
CHORUS:
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya),
Say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya),
We were
Dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya),
Ne-e-e-e-
Never was a cloudy day
Tell me do you remember, aye...
