My open eye to the light
Move to the shadow
Wait for it
Wait for the night
Wait for the light
In the night

Move with the stars in the night
Wait for it
Wait for the night
My open eyes to the right
Even the fallow
Waits for it
Waits for the right
Waits for the right time
You and I
In the mire
Here it is shallow
(shallow)

Bodies are the ocean

Shine you and I broken light
See its inside you
And you're made for it
Made for the fight
Made for the fight
You were right
Move to thе stars in the night
Into the sunrise

Sеt my set my feet to fly

Speak on it
Speak for the right
Reach for the right line
You and I
In the mire
Leaving the shadows

Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

"Thus sayeth the Lorde: "

Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it

Audre Lorde said, we were never meant to survive
Lorde said, if I didn't define myself for myself
I would be crunched into other people's
Fantasies for me and eaten alive
The Lorde tells us that there is no thing
as a single issue struggle because we do not live
Single issue lives
Lorde said, I am not free while any woman is unfree
The Lorde said, when the sun rises, we are afraid
When the sun sets, we are afraid
When our stomachs are full, we are afraid
When our stomachs are empty, we are afraid
When we are loved, we are afraid
When we are alone, we are afraid
When we are silent, we are still afraid

(wait for it)
"Thus sayeth the Lorde: "

So the Lorde said, it is better to speak
Remembering, we were never meant to survive
And because she knew that speaking
was going to be uncomfortable
Because she knew that speaking was going to be hard
The Lorde tells us, our speaking out
will irritate some people
get us called bitchy or hypersensitive
And disrupt dinner parties
But then the Lorde said our speaking will permit
other women to speak until laws are changed
Until lives are saved, and the world is altered forever
But the Lorde also said
the Master's tools will never dismantle the Master's house
They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game
but they will never enable us
to bring about genuine change
The Lorde said, revolution is not a one-time event
The good Lorde tells us there is only one thing
more frightening than speaking your own truth
And that is not speaking
(Thus sayeth the Lorde)
Audre Lorde said, it is better to speak remembering
we were never meant to survive
The Lorde said, your silence will not protect you
So it is better to speak remembering
we were never meant to survive
We were never meant to survive
We were never meant to survive
Thus sayeth the Lorde

My open eye to the light
Move to the shadow
Wait for it
Wait for the night
Wait for the light
In the night
Move with the stars in the night
Wait for it
Wait for the night

My open eyes to the right
Even the fallow
Waits for it
Waits for the right
Waits for the right time
You and I
In the mire
Here it is shallow
