Lyrics
I hear their whispers in the wind, they callin' my name
Ancestors in my blood, worth more than fortune or fame
Built bridges in chains, survived every flame
Every prayer that I speak, I'm respecting the game
Spirit team at the ready, through the pain, through the war
So I'm gonna stand tall, walk through every door
I sip from the chalice, divine in my core
Goddess on the mic, what they prayed for before
Vishnu for balance, Kali cuttin' through fear
Hecate at the crossroads, keepin' my paths clear
Oshun in my flow, sweet honey in my ear
Sekhmet in my chest, bringin' justice here
Is the future your enemy? Nah, it's divine
It's the past and the present all aligned in this time
When I spit, it's not just rap, I recite, I remind
That the crown on my head was by divine design
So when the lights cut low, and the crowds get still
I know my words gon' echo, my purpose fulfilled
It's not me, it's the lineage that sharpened the quill
Emme on the mic, but the gods wrote the will
I salute to the ones in the dust, in the ground
To the gods and the goddesses still holdin' me down
Raise my hands to the sky, let the blessings surround
I'm a vessel of power, hear that ancestral sound
They paid with their blood, their proof in the soil
Now I harvest their prayers, turn the struggle into spoil
Every lyric I lay down is an ancestral coil
Wrapping wisdom round my heart, my armor against this toil
I'm the echo of hopes whispered at night
Their moon in the dark, their spark and their fight
When I breathe, it's their breath, when I shine, it's their light
I'm the daughter of the gods, the phoenix in flight
I keep choosin' them, they keep choosin' me
All hail Ganesha, Oya, Lakshmi
Pushin' and showin' me all that I can be
Polished up the gem I am for the whole world to see
So when the lights cut low, and the crowds get still
I know my words gon' echo, my purpose fulfilled
It's not me, it's the lineage that sharpened the quill
