I Will Take You There

(spoken) Okay
What's the background on this song
Okay
Well, you heard a little bit of the melody earlier
It's a song about love, but it's unsure whether or not it's requited love or not
Is that how you say it? Requited
Requited
It's not quite requited
It's sort of requited
It's still a love song. There's a lot of love there, I'm sure
(Song begins)
My deepness used to weigh me down
But I know it's just a pool in which there's so much to be found
I'd like to take this time inside
To honor life and love while I'm mystified
And I will take you there and through the sacred
It's time to rest, to sink into my valley
With dewdrops kissing you, beauty always unfolding
And I am not afraid, I go wide open
Your presence always makes things lighter for me
Because I recognize the stillness where the depth awaits
To be kissed by sunlight's starfish
And I may never go that deep
I knock upon your door, will you please take me
I'm ready to explore, I feel the safety
I'll let you guide me down your world you're saving
A work in progress, beauty so amazing
Piano solo
This beauty is so fragile
And the river is too narrow
It's like living in other dimensions
While still living on this plane
And maybe it's like dying
Because we've traveled to another world
And it definitely feels like heaven
And I'm grieving, I'm grieving
Too
Piano solo
The more I love myself, the more I'm present
And ready to explore my spirit's message
And all you offer me on spiritual travels
Feeding my inner light, nourishment unraveling
Unraveling
Piano solo
And I will take you there
It's time to rest
I'll let you guide me down
Beauty so amazing

When I sing you a song, I gotta be brave, pick apart which words belong, gotta get out
Of this ground, the grave where's the sun, where's the sprout sprung?
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
Just a little bit, little bits of bitterness, rippin' up my clitoris, zippin' up my womb
Soundproofin' her room for her melody, the melody inside her, never will subside, always
Has resided, and besides, we need her, always singin', if our race continues springin' into life
Clingin' like strawberry jelly, mango pineapple lemony, I won't allow the memory to demonize my mammary
Raspberry jam, gooey peanut butter celery, if you eat my thoughts up, I won't wanna rot my guts up,
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
Little bits of bitterness, rippin' up my clitoris
An alarm goes off in my soul, ding ding, got a thing to tell, you gotta speak, gotta teach through example
Here is just a sample of my angry thoughts that I bought for a penny, now I'm petty, now I'm bought.
Where is my soul, What are they doing with my soul?
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
I don't belong, I don't belong, where is my place, can you just taste my soul
Maybe I'm a teacher, maybe I should just sit up on a bleacher, cheering from the stands
No one understands, reaching for the top do a belly flop, just for a thrill, can'y pay the bill.
Now, how can I be leading if I'm pleading for intention, that's intendedfor a mention
Of a heartbeat in my tension
Tenderizing grief, circle all around my beef, it doesn't belong, it doesn't belong,
I don't belong
What the eff is wrong
It's like I don't belong, singing the same old song,
Hope I last long before this game's all gone,
Got played like a pawn,
Just a game of chess, dealing with this mess,
My life is just a test till I put my head to rest,
In peace, wanna live in peace, first I gotta kill the beast that's trying to steal my feast,
Yeah we all gotta eat, so sick and tired of catching bullets with my teeth.
Even Superman gotta cheat on these streets, even Superman gotta cheat on the streets.
It was rape, I escaped, dare not mention wish I had more detention,
I'd be cool enough for ascension, in the human race, where there's place for the mess up,
I play dress up, to escape your labels on my labula, I drink globulas of
L-acidophilus, philosophers inebriate us as the lead us through the darkness,
I'm not asking for attention, just a tape of the record, so you know, so I know,
I can feel, I can heal, all my guilt's in a wrecker.
Play the checker board; each square, don't you dare
Jump my queen, I am green, all I want is to be seen, not bowed down to
Into, onto, let's jump out of the machine!
I'm just a song, I'm just my song.
It always changes like my underwear, underwear I don't always wear, my song,
I sing my song right now, cause I'll never wear your underwear
Could never sing your song, don't stare, our songs, our songs don't change, just rearrange
Themselves in different notes, still our souls are kept afloat, our songs, they don't
Belong, belong, in a world of active cultured greed, what is it that you all need?
What is it that you all need
Besides lust and greed
