Sage Up

Before you sit down
Pray in all four directions
Meditate with cactus
For the resurrection
Acceptance of lights
Self-love and meditation
Ascension of matter
Rings of Saturn

Burn the sweet grass
When the ancestors gather
Show respect

Who knew The hoodu
The Oshun
The Zulu
The Ayahuasca
Amazon
The witch doctor

Red earth
Since birth
White clay
And eating dirt
Problem solving
Green tablet carving
Pyramid building
Black man evolving

Microcosm
30 day fast
Light work
Like a shaman

Afro Peruvian
Walking out of body
Machu Picchu
God is all inside me
I'm in the galaxy

I keep it lit
Like sage
Pallo
santo
Light it up
BLAZE

Sage Up

Sage Up
I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine

Sage Up

Sage Up
I can hear it in the wind this music's medicine

We smudge off before we get on stage
Feathers and a microphone both in my hand it's how we pray
Every day
Bury me on the land my ancestors died for
Passing on a culture Mexika will still fight for
Ancient jade masks wearing artifacts as war paint
Politicians ordering missile strikes playing war games
Dig up poison from the earth push it through a pipeline
Praying for the rain, started standing rock,
One mind
This is my birthright,
indigenous resistance Oppression met with Zapatistas, Che Guevara,
radicales activistas,
construyendo paredes en la frontera- no me dices
Now our whole country is broken into pieces
Fulfilling prophecies, eagle and the condor
North to south keep the fire lit through the downpour
Runners through the desert in four directions four elements
cracked earth sacred water scarce
better cherish it Dripping sweat is medicine
I'm telling them to wake up
While res life stay tough, burning sage up

Pray for the youth

Sage Up
I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine

Yeah, pray for the the youth

Sage Up
I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine

I believe in the good things coming like Nahko Bear
Free the the slaves up, light up the sage, and clear the air
This is medicine for the people, warrior prayers
May we see through the fear,
stay woke and aware With the vision of the hawk,
the grace of the deer Eye of the tiger, the wisdom of the elders
Sage is live in tune of the seasons
Return to the tribal teachings
The ways still alive and breathing
They put corporate interests before the people
Now the sea levels rising and flood's increasing Rebellions in the
street, dead whales on beaches Political unrest, hella social evils
Catch a fire, be the light
Purify, cleanse
Let the plantation burn,
smell the sage in the wind Is it a new beginning,
or the beginning of the end?
When the smoke all clears, we will rise up again and again

I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine

Standing rock in the moonlight
Free Red Faun and the black hills
Stand up, get down
What goes around comes round
When the seeds sprout It's in the ground
Speak the truth when the youth around
Skin dark in moon light
That Trayvon Mike Brown
Keep yo hands up
Get down
What goes around comes round
When the seeds sprout
It's in the ground
Speak the truth when the youth around
We rebel in In the moonlight
Latino América, Indígena, resiste
Get down
What goes around comes round
When the seeds sprout It's in the ground
Speak the truth when the youth around

Sage Up
I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine

Pray for the youth

I can hear it in the wind this music is medicine
