Lay down your (down ya)
Lay down your (down ya)
Lay down your (down ya)
Hey, hey

Lay down your walls, right here, in front of me
Notice some fall quiet, some thundering
I'm gonna ask you to get involved
And share the things, share the things
I've been wondering
I've been wondering

I am a wet rock and its ecosystem
Come, flip me over, I think
I think I wanna share with you
I think I wanna show you my colors
My critters
My brothers
Transmitters
Of numbers of other wonders
But in the summers
My under is flipped over quite often
Hi. please let me stay rock bottom
Why
My orientation changes, not by my own
And my belly dies on my back
My back becomes my belly and I start again from scratch
Give me a moment...
Everything I thought I was
Everything I thought had made me
Exposed. ego. self.
I notice. okay
I notice I am growing in new ways
Sunbathing. sheltering. simultaneously
Spontaneously
And I grow back stronger
I won’t crack for longer

I am an old growth and it’s own battle
Threatened by that bone cattle
Coulda left 'em with a home, rather
That theft gotta take control
Second to patrol
Questioned for my role
Pregnant with your coal
Segment of your goal
See me in my whole
Beckoned by my soul
Oye!
Reckoned I would fold
Oye!
Legend to be told
Oye!
Intended for the gold
Defended by the bold
It ended in the cold
Shoulda amended what you sold, now you

Overextended
Where’s that garden that you tended?
Cemented?
Where’s that pardon you was begging?
Contended?
Where's that money you been spending?
Suspended?
Where’s that carbon you depended?
Projected to infect the lungs of many
Not just any
But the folks who count their pennies
We entering the 20s
You festering an enemy
My empathy is gone
Go head right your wrongs
Cause uh

I am a mother. I am an earth
Imma be sure you know your worth
Find a cure or this gon' hurt
Death is a part of birth
Get your heart to work
Gotta restart your earnings
Hear me, I’m overt
Imma be curt
Fear me time to skirt
Betta act smart I’m learning
Cheer me like ya flirting
Get your hands to dirt
Oye!
Vendetta’s a lasting burden
I’ve yet to purge
I’ve got the urge
I’m on the verge
My plates converge
My surge emerge
Your state submerge
...Don’t wait just merge
(Cha Cha)

Lay down your (down ya)
Lay down your (down ya)
Lay down your (down ya)
Hey, hey
Lay down your walls, right here, in front of me
Notice some fall quiet, some thundering
I'm gonna
Ask you to get involved
And share the things, share the things
I've been wondering

Lay down your walls, right here, in front of me
Notice some fall quiet, some thundering
I'm gonna
Ask you to get involved
Ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
Imma ask you to get involved
