Tamiel M B.
Give it all you got
Since knowledge is infinite it has infinitely fallen on me
They asked me how I knew myself in the midst of all this mess
And I knew that I in fact was the midst
I am the light
I live through love
Hear me when I say you got this in your hands
It’s yours if you want it
Life is yours if you want it
My love is yours if you need it
Too many know too many and not enough of themselves
I say
We’re living in a world where we know more about each other than we do about ourselves
So we criticize each other with hate because between hating my hair and his eyes when did we have the time to love ourselves?
They don’t see it how I see it but I want them to
You don’t love me like I love you but I still love you
Infinitely
Unconditionally
I heard of you and me
All that we are together
All that we will be
If we aren’t united then like they say history will repeat
But I see light in our future
Often we forget that we are the future
So if we don’t do it, know that there might not be such a future
So hear me when I say
Give it all you got
You ain’t come this far to lose yourself in the gaze
Give it all you got
Make it worth the pain
Make it worth the times you almost lost everything
Never forget what it took
Always remember who just sat back and looked
While you fought
And raved
For the love of your people and better days
They know not what you have to fight for
How many have felt the raged no woman should live for?
So you yell on
Chant on
Määtī Udjat Märī Mākēē
You are the woman you always knew you’d be.
So why stop now?
