lyrics

And he held his head up.
And the rain it held him.
And it washed his leathered skin, anew.

And he held his children
in palms of promise.
With cheekbones painted,
for now, we are strong.
We are strong.

ch:
And he said, walk,
into your valley.
And with each step,
release your truth.
Show up into your body,
let the wild movement move.

And the sage it lifted
in the dance of spirits,
held suspended
and burned into the sky.

And he left his body,
to tears of freedom
of earthbound tide.
To live on the wind,
on highest hill, on smallest palm,
grandfather song.

ch

And as one tribe,
be hand in hand,
with spiders' spindles weaving through us all.
Beyond these eyes,
remembering the skies we looked to,
phase attuned,
inseparate inside.
And may we share to feel the rise of this tide,
and may we seed connection bursting through this life.

And may we walk
into our valleys,
and with each step,
release our truth.
Show up into our bodies,
and let the wild movement,
let it move.
