One (Hercules & Lipelis Remix)

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 upward
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
Eyes fire with what I've won
Swallow you in tsunami
Wild forces overrun

I kissed 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, 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
Rise up, girl, rise up
Speak your truth, speak your truth
Fear none and walk without shame
Remember, no more dying
