lyrics

Bide my time crying her pain
The myths take up a lot of space
Lost my time in an endless rage
The myths are barely band-aids

Like my mother and my grandmother before me
Where is the gap in my memory?

Bleary-eyed and underdrawn
Delicate and driven out-of-bounds
Give up the princess, tear her down
And along with her the one who made that crown

Since the end is up to me
I’ll tell her she never earned deceit
The longer I listen to what I have seen
I know I’m hers and she has set me free

Can’t rely on you
She wouldn’t want me to
Can’t be saved by you
She wouldn’t want me to

Can’t rely on you
But she wouldn’t want me to
I’ve got my own lullaby
Can’t be saved by you
But she wouldn’t want me to
My mama, my life
My mama, my light
