One
I've come to know the taste of dirt
The rejection upon my tongue
Oh, I know my coat is black
I've been a threat since I was young
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
I'm turning, twisting upwards
Chasing my essence towards the sun
Magic in my infancy
I was perfect, I was one
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
I break you with my nature
Mouth and volcano, one
My arms screaming with branches
Womb of ocean undone
Feeding upon my own flesh
Eyеs fire with what I've won
Swallow you in tsunami
Wild forces ovеrrun
I guess the gift, I kissed the stone
And loved the damage that's been done
A child's blood was drawn from me
My river drools communion
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
My body crushes yours now
I'm burning with the sun
Swallow you in tsunami
Wild forces overrun
Rise up, girl, oh rise up
Speak your truth, speak your truth
Fear none and walk without shame
Remember, no more dying
No more dying
No more dying
No more dying
The rejection upon my tongue
Oh, I know my coat is black
I've been a threat since I was young
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
I'm turning, twisting upwards
Chasing my essence towards the sun
Magic in my infancy
I was perfect, I was one
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
I break you with my nature
Mouth and volcano, one
My arms screaming with branches
Womb of ocean undone
Feeding upon my own flesh
Eyеs fire with what I've won
Swallow you in tsunami
Wild forces ovеrrun
I guess the gift, I kissed the stone
And loved the damage that's been done
A child's blood was drawn from me
My river drools communion
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
Held down, head down
My body crushes yours now
I'm burning with the sun
Swallow you in tsunami
Wild forces overrun
Rise up, girl, oh rise up
Speak your truth, speak your truth
Fear none and walk without shame
Remember, no more dying
No more dying
No more dying
No more dying
