Verse One - Tim Hicks
to all the daughters of EVE
I need you to believe
in your dreams
call yourself QUEEN
when you scream
just make sure that
you
BREATHE
let it be
especially when your glass is
empty
SMOKE
take a pull
just breathe
your river runs deeper
than your streams
and Mister hates Celie
when she sings
it doesn't hurt really
when you DREAM
and all God's Women
got wings
fall slow
into winter
make spring
white lines
fly straight
paper planes
just float
jump ship
let it sink
kick push
run flip
this is it
don't listen
when they tell ya
never quit!
...you don't need a man to pay your rent
Verse Two - Dobbins

alone time is Ascension
i know u aint lonely
it took Generations for your STORY
to mold a body of solar RHYTHMS

hips and lips consecrate
take the MOON back
baptize LEY LINES
relay to MIND

Verse One - Dobbins
You've been a holocaust rape victim
it makes sense u need escapism
you judge your TEMPLE unattractive
and the love from your man
may be inactive
but this is just a CHAPTER
Bathe in the wells of healing LAUGHter
SPHEREs grace galactic
wake the PLANET raise the PLANET
w your MAGIK and Dance
Praise
reclaim names of your Goddess and sing
wash the dead
Omni-Being reign awake
wombs of your seas
pulse Star Seed's main frame
the 7 crystal lakes on the equator
revolve around the 27 flames on the navel
SPACE STRETCH MARKS
bind waist
pour seas in dreams
clean keys of space
in between WATER
GOD's Avatar queen
raise faith
Verse Two - Tim Hicks
dear sister of mine
i wrote this staring out
the window of time
made it
painted
your favorite color
look at it
SHINE
manic manic
a panoramic feeling
of mine
lost
stranded
abandoned
left u standing in line
or can it be that it
ain't a matter of why
so candidly
that it
made a mannequin cry
your family attic
full of static and wires
man frantic-lee
panics
she's enchanted and high
fly
dive
why
blind eye
my my my
eyes on prize
what
when
where
why
solo
high tide
don't sink
swim
rise
still I feel
W H Y
u feel like nobody is listening
won't somebody just pay attention
those somebody's will never mention
how Ruth
found her ascension
GOD SPOKE
SHE STARTED LISTENING
