You are my light

You are my light that shines in darkness
For you I fight to ignite freedom upon us
And I promise my goddess
to forever praise you with all honors
as our love blossoms


You know that feeling
when the worldís overcrowded with strangers
love is conceived through anger
freedomís related to paper
securityís wrapped in danger
I see the sunlight
once blocked by skyscrapers
as time chase us
my mind lingers
brings me to a place
where we can finally be together
Both understanding
This love is a treasure
and if you find it
you must work hard at it
to make it better
for weíre not promised
forever
And if weíre re honest
in our endeavors
we could harness the love of our creator
beyond self
greater than anything we ever felt
wanna have this
with no one else but you Ö
tell me what I must do
eyes are closed,
soul is open
implicitly I trust you
Yet my sensibilities
have me scared to even touch you
Iím so careful, fearful
cus I donít want to rush you
cus I more than just lust you
and thereís no one else in this world for me -
just you
Just to hold you ñ
I wanna know you
like no one else knows you
Let me show you
parts of a man others wonít want to
Let us grow to
a union where our seed are always blooming
I mean what yaí doing
for the rest of this century

Come take the trips with me
to ancient ruins
So we could see
futuristic blueprints
where the world is always lucent
from the currents of our fusion
I use to question
if this was an illusion
Whether I was dreaming,
confusing reality
Pursuing
something in the end
know Iíd be losing
But now I have a blind faith in the choices were choosing
For indeed love blossoms
As God has blessed the fate of our movements

chorus

Now for me
love hasnít been easy
Itís been a battle
and it almost beat me
There was a time I thought
it could release me
From this earthly bondage
all it has done is scarred me
and put my soul in bandage
So my spirit has been damaged
beyond what I thought it could manage
At times I felt like taking advantage
becoming a savage
as I attempt to ravage
every sister I met like it was a force of habit
Evil thoughts ran rampant
But I stopped short of having that happen
cus thatís when I realize my madness
think about my princess
oh My Goddess
my little daughter, more divine the holy water
So Iím trying to harness
all the energy in my existence
for her
In order to set her free
I bare witness - make moves against
the daily slaughter of woman by men
and it is out of order
this is how I taught her
From the fetus so she could this
I want her to run with the cheetahs
pass the unbelievers
Be receiver of vibes from our ancestors
to lead us
Be that drum to fill the distance between us

So we see that in order to overcome,
we need us

Chorus
