Do you think I need permission to be here?
Should you really interfere
With the vibe
The divine
Presence of life
Why you trying
To put out my fire
To deny
Me
Let us take a moment to be clear
Take a breath in of this atmosphere
And discern
Try to learn
Communicate
And affirm
Why you yearn
To harm
Me
Just let me be
I don’t want to fight
But I’ll defend my life
So whatchu trying to do
With that trigger inside you
I’m not afraid to die
But not today
Walang hiya
I wanna live too
What is it that you really fear?
Multiple realities exist here
It’s okay
Many ways
To do this thing
We are made
From the same
Earth
You and me
When you look into the mirror
Is your love truly sincere
Or do you look away
From the pain
When it stings
Who’s to blame
For the shame
That goes
Unseen
Just set it free
There are many paths
But you cannot turn back
Once violence exudes
It’s poison inside you
When you cross the line
Beyond compassion’s eye
The pain will consume
Your vision and blind you
War is everywhere
But baby don’t you dare
Let it live inside you
Or let it divide you
From your real wealth
Your truest self
Let ancestor guide you
✵✵✵
WTF you lookin at
(like that)
Who u talkin to
(like that)
Get the fuck out my face
(like that)
Don’t you take
Another step closer
You don’t wanna
Come for me motherfuckaaaaa!
✵✵✵
Do you think I need permission to be here
Let us take a moment to be clear
What is it that you really fear
When you look into the mirror

We’ve been going, going, grinding, pushing
On so hard that we don’t really know why anymore
But now the world has shut down completely
It’s got us breaking down to the core
If the pandemic is a portal
Where will it take us? What changes will we see?
There are no answers, only more questions
Accept the invitation and go in deep
But for real tho
I’m not alright
Why does taking on new forms feel so painful?
Ripping apart every part of who we think we are
As old versions of ourselves die
We are growing in every direction from the heart
Collective visioning, shapeshifting,
Disillusion is revealing the truth
There is no going back to fucking normal
So ask yourself, whatchu gonna do?
Wut?
I’m losing my mind
Trauma
Grief
Trust
Belief
Move it through your body baby
Clear the way so you can see
We all going through it baby
Tomorrow isn’t guaranteed
I am alive

I want to be who you never got to be
But who you always were all along
I want to dance anytime and anywhere
With anyone to my favorite song
I want to make beautiful things with my hands
And grow a garden to feed everyone
Free
I want to be fearless
And tender with my fire
I want to stand up for myself
To walk away when it’s time
I want to find the words
To feel forgiveness in my bones
Free
I will release the blame
As your mind fades
From today until your last day
I will break the curse
Passed on as you gave birth
When you return to the earth
I will take your pain
And create a new way
We will be okay
I will look into my face
And see a reflection of you
Free
