The clouds was hating on the moon tryna block her glow knowing that this was her big show

they hustled and laid it on thick

one on top of the other creating a wall so thick

but she just laughed and said for this I have a trick

She let Bama’s clouds do what they do and she gave the rest of the nations a reason to hug they boo

The moon turned into a beautiful redbone tonight

Shining bright to the world even while she was hated on by a few

She didn’t let the haters stop her shine

She inspired me even though I didn’t see her this time

But before dinner I saw her glow, all pearly white with an innocent glow

Now I’ll sit back and sip some wine, reminiscing like an ancestor about when she danced like this the last time

The child in me wants to be upset that I missed this and so I cry tears and my face is all wet

But the love in me knows that despite the view, her love for me still reigns true!
