Born as a child
I awoke a woman
Big spirit inside
Big bias viewpoint
Where is the world without me?
I don’t know
I’ve only my blue house
And views from her windows
So I’ll make a home
Where that child may grow
And what if I have a daughter?
Will she be an artist?
Will I deliver her my winding river?
The river’s wide, Lord knows I feel it
After a swim wise to emerge
Sit quietly at the shore
Sit quietly
Leave alone
I hear the monsters knocking at my door
I’m screaming back
“You will not come in!”
What’s the use in shouting answers for?
I was at peace I was sitting there writing
Uh Oh! Fight violence with quiet
Uh Oh! Stay calm, stay sitting there writing
My mother’s anxiety is not my own
I sit at the feet of the Katsura tree
Upon its skirt of green
I dance, I sing, I laugh, I play, I love, I write, I sing
I dance, I sing, I write, I play, I breathe, I let it be
I dance, I sing, I write, I play, I breathe, I let it be
I dance, I sing, I write, I play, I breathe, I let it be
I dance, I sing, I write, I play, I breathe, I let it be
I dance, I sing, I write, I play, I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
I breathe, I let it be
