Delivery
Tems delivers No woman No cry with the right emotional tone. We feel every note; every lyric as it settles on us and we can’t but appreciate it.
We want to listen to this song as much as we can because the delivery brings emotions, it brings what we can remember of Chadwick Boseman and how he was such an excellent actor and has impacted so much in the world.
Relatability
The Relatability of No Woman No Cry is above the roof.
The way the song begins itself is very relatable. We can link every lyric to how Black Panther 2 is meant to go, and even if not, we can link it to our own personal feelings and emotions; how we feel everything has been shredded from us because of loss.
Tems No woman No cry lyrics does not however, speak on loss alone, it speaks of hope, of courage and looking forward to the future
Lyrics
{Intro}
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
{Verse 1}
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, observing the hypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have and good friends we’ve lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can’t forget your past
So dry your tears I say
{Chorus}
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
‘Ere, little darlin’, don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry
[Verse 2]
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light, as it was
A log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I’ll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
No, I’ve got to push on through
But while I’m gone
{Bridge}
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright now
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright now
Everything’s gonna be alright
So woman, no cry, cry, cry
No, woman, no (Woman, no)
So woman, no cry, no cry
No, woman, no cry
{Outro}
Hmm
Ooh
Ooh
