lyrics

7th son of the 11th son
had a trans son
11 days into the 7th month
and i'm still running toward
where i came from
i went to war just to start a war
i don't know my destination
but i know that i've been craving
the hope that Great Mother has life enough for us All...
so take my life and let it live!
take my life and give a kid some hope

delight is here to serve you
in the spaces that you breathe
power left unaccounted lies its thrown into disease
don't abandon the land that sources life
ravens and crows soak up the light
their blackness holds the love of everything
ocotillo bursts like a firework
weaving us out of the universe
the sun is obvious source of life
but we still dig deep down to fright
Washington becomes Arizona
Arizona becomes Cuba
and Cuba returns to Nebraska

7th son of the 11th son
had a trans son
11 days into the 7th month
and i'm still running toward
where i came from
i went to war just to start a war
i don't know my destination
but i know that i've been craving
the hope that Great Mother has life enough for us All...
so take my life and let it live!
take my life and give a kid some hope

saddle up your hope
it's already been a long, long ride
already been a cold, cold night:
flowers arranged.
the fullest moments of life
are always hardest to rationalize
a passion that consumes you inside
until you're flame
summer cold at the lakeside
we're soaking wet and laughing to hide
grandma's joy wrapped around more than pride
until it's shame...
sing my name!
she's sings my name!
sing my name!
she's sings my name!
