Movin' On (Based on the play The Piano Lesson)
Location
I am the start
the middle
and the end of my life... and life I hold....
A little girl who knows nothing of the
blood, death, and ghosts that haunt
our family.
I must move on, all of that should be in my past, I must move on...
But the history of my family... carved in one picture to the
next...Mama Esther... Boy Charles...
I must move on, all of that should be in my past, I must move on...
My baby girl, Maretha, can go on and do
everything I could never do...
To teach and play the piano..
My brother.. even has a plan ...piano for land...
Freedom over bondage....
I cut my shackles free, and let my chains drop...
The sound of the train approaching sounds through my mind...
I must move on, all of it is in my past, I am moving on...here)
