Around the heart
We build a fortress
Broken glass on the portrait
To watch it bloom like purple orchids
Then be destroyed
Hurts in epic proportions
But that's just where
The Metamorphosis takes place
Transforming on the inside
Butterflies from caterpillars
To feel with no restriction
Twin flame and mirror image
To move and groove within it
Steer fearlessly in a world
Where we so ego driven
Kinship changes everythang
There's no coincidences
I found home when I had me no place to go (place to go)
I ate though my cabinets was running low (running low)
Miracles yeah yeah they happen everyday
(all day all day)
If I could
I would give all y'all bouquets (all day all day)
Give you yo flowers
While you'll still smell em
Till the pollen falls on your lips
And you inhale heaven ummm hmmm
Till the L word is manifested
Sending blessings to all my Sistren and my Brethren
Sevens
Brick by brick
Breath by breath
Prayer by prayer
Layer by layer
Traveled to distant lands
Baptized myself in turquoise water
To be reborn again
To come to a place
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme
Where love Reigns Supreme....

I phoned your heart with mine
We transcend space and time
Overcoming bombs and battlefields
to picnic in outer space
Cosmic delights delirium
Sonnets via thought waves
Flying floating dreaming but I'm awake
Telepathic lovers
I can feel you from light years away
Telepathic lovers
Hear the melodies with the words you don't say
Telepathic lovers
Love thoughts beaming into my 3rd eye
Telepathic lovers
Wanna taste your sweetness till the day I die
Sweeter than my solitude
Your touch takes away my pain
Mystical warrior
Reprogramming my brain
A King has come to take his reign
I'll give you the keys to my heart's domain
Everything is roses
Let's drink champagne
Telepathic lovers
I can feel you from light years away
Telepathic lovers
Hear the melodies with the words you don't say
Telepathic lovers
Love thoughts beaming into my 3rd eye
Telepathic lovers
Wanna taste your sweetness till the day I die

You can't make a blind man see
You can't take away his greed
Destruction as progression's fee
Strike me down I still won't bleed
Lock me up with out the key
I will still break free
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We just RISE
Does your pain keep you in chains?
Feeling like the world has gone insane
Masses so obsessed with fame
Golden slaves without a name
Kings and queens rise up from shame
It's freedom we proclaim
Actors in a cosmic play
With your words what will you say
Silence is a deadly game
Speak truth and you liberate
Karma burns on ancient flames
Light warrior elevate
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We go high
When they go low
We just RISE

What kind of fuckery is this?
You've been talkin so much ish
I just tried to be your friend
I should've listened to my intuition
You project as ammunition
Playing victim like an addiction
I'll transcend your affliction
Cause I refuse to neglect my mission
Some people try to be tall by cutting off the heads of others
Some people feel so small they try to infiltrate lovers
But stay unfuckwithable
Yes I'm unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Insecurity got you stuck in old patterns
Like elementary school mathematics
Ain't nobody got time for these dramatics
I'm swimming forward while you're crawling backwards
I can't drown in your disaster
I'm determined as fuck like Saturn
Queens making ceilings shatter
Some people try to be tall by cutting off the heads of others
Some people feel so small they try to infiltrate lovers
But stay unfuckwithable
Yes I'm unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
When you're throwing shade I'll rise like the sun
Venemous words I'll alchemize
(scat)
But stay unfuckwithable
Yes I'm unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
But stay unfuckwithable
Yes I'm unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
But stay unfuckwithable
Yes I'm unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable
Unfuckwithable

Thought my heart was open like the sky
but you broke it open to another stratosphere
Light pours forth from a world within me
that was not born until you arrived
Reverberate your rhythm in the fabric of my stars
Penetrate my origin
Messy raw like molasses
Hidden made to flourish in shadows
Your secret drains my life force
Danced your rhythm out of me
or so I thought
You keep showing up
in my coffee, in my dreams, in parallel universes and in these streets
Bonny and Clyde
I've seen God in your eyes
This love sacred, coated in hatred
I like candles with prayers
that your words and actions will dance a dance
I'm more than what you know
but your lenses don't allow you to see my light
You call me a queen but tried to take away my crown
I have given everything and more
Placed myself on your alter time and time again
I have given everything and more
Placed myself on your alter time and time again
Planted your seeds in my garden of dreams
I die each day but awake in faith
I light candles with prayers
that your words and actions will dance a dance

We have come broken, we will leave whole
Expansion expression, of the oversoul
I'll tell the stories of the ancestors with my hips
I'll sing their praises through Oshun's golden honey lips
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
My chakras aligned and magnified
Came from the Heavens to inspire you to shine
They tried to deem our magic as forbidden
But they can't express our genius through the rhythm
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa
Diosa Diosa

Gold (MAST Remix)

I dimmed my fire to match your flame
Altered my perception to mirror your reflection
Blood from a stone
Now I wake up alone
Revelations and lessons this is my confession
Wet heat on my pillow
How did we fade to black
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
Got caught up in your confusion
Seduced so sweetly by your delusion
Dr. Jekyl talking future speaking ring size
Mr. Hyde's unintentional lies
Revelations and lessons this is my confession
Wet heat on my pillow
How did we fade to black
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
I took pride in loving you
Wild and free as the tides
Infinite as the skies
Honeycombed in black
Until it died
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
You're gold turned cold
Gold turned cold
