lyrics

This Is The Moment

This is the moment when all five senses speak at once.
Where all the languages you know make a chorus.
For your genders unify in more than rainbows.
Where religions in you read each other's theologies
This is the moment when the pores open up
to drink water, and water takes the shape of understanding.

This is the moment when your throat sinks further than opera
and bees sweeten the world of ingrates.

This is the moment when colorism matters not

This is the moment when you inhale the water you were to drink for the rest of your life
and pour it unto the seedlings inside you

When you know you came here to stir the oceans
to feed the whales with your mind.

When you understand that Greta Thunberg speaks before you but not for you
You came here to stir the oceans
to feed the whales with your mind.

Running on clouds, it is droplets that squirt unto our faces
never washing us clean
Droplets of water when we need gallons to satiate our historic thirst.

We've been running on clouds for centuries
Unable to sit, unable to stop, unable to trust
Our step unable to drink.

Frontera Dogs
Running on clouds.

This is the moment when all five senses speak at once.
