Whenever we are called to leave behind our lives as we have known them, we should expect to be hurt to some degree. In drag, in transition, en pointe, we are often left teetering on the receiving end of pain.

In case you wonder why these songs are getting posted :) My daughter got a project to get the lyrics of some songs of which David Rudder was the singer for two of them. She didn't know the songs well so I am playing them for her. It is funny hearing her try to keep up with the High Priest David Rudder when he is singing High Mas. You should try it :)
DAVID RUDDER HIGH MAS LYRICS
Our Father who has given us this art So that we can all feel a part Of this earthly (lesser) heaven....amen Forgive us this day our daily weaknesses As we seek to cast our mortal burdens on this city...amen Oh merciful Father, in this bacchanal season Where some men will lose their reason But most of us just want to wine and have a good time While we looking for a lime, Because we feeling fine, Lord....amen And as we jump up and down in this crazy town Send us some music for some healing...amen
Chorus
Our Father who has given us this art So that we can all feel as if we are a part Of your heaven....amen Forgive us this day our daily weaknesses As we seek to cast our mortal burdens on this painful city...amen And on this day when we come out to play and sway And do a little breakaway Some will say what they have to say But only you know the pain we're feeling.....amen As it was in the beginning of J'ouvert So it shall be on Carnival Tuesday ending (good vibes)...amen Chorus: Everybody hand raise Everybody give praise Everybody hand raise And if you know what I mean....put up your finger And if you know what I mean....put up your hand And if you know what I mean....put up your finger And if you know what I mean then scream O, give Jah his praises O, let Jah be praised O, the Father in his mercy Send a little music, to make the vibration raise So Carnival Day, everybody come and celebrate Everybody come and celebrate See the ragamuffin congregate Everybody come and celebrate And everybody say, oo,a,a,oo,a,a I love my country oo,a,a,oo,a,a I feeling irie (repeat)
