I am a new people

Mapping the visions of my soul

I kneel at the altar of life

Feeling the shadows fall as the sun rises

Mapping the visions of my soul

My identity no longer obscures the elemental truths

Feeling the shadows fall as the sun rises

The Black Bird’s song kisses me with its mysteries

My identity no longer obscures the elemental truths

Unveiling patches of sea that will not burn

The Black Bird’s song kisses me with its mysteries

and the rebirth of flight is released from time

Unveiling patches of sea that will not burn

Contracting and expanding, risking love in each breath

The rebirth of flight is released from time

Knowing some wounds will not heal

Contracting and expanding, risking love in each breath

When will the re-memory of your embrace take hold of me again

Knowing some wounds will not heal

There is magic in-between the space of Earth and sky

When will the re-memory of your embrace take hold of me again

My fingers rooted in the soil for security

There is magic in-between the space of Earth and sky

But when a rhythm dissolves can it still be felt

My fingers rooted in the soil for security

I let not memories imprison me

But when a rhythm dissolves can it still be felt

I am a new people
