Life is Art
beat of the drum
beat of the drum she's been calling me back
heartbeat of a wild one from the start
whispers of my sisters who walked before
calling me back unto these ancient shores
beat of the waves as they crash on the land
beat so loud crying take my hand
your ebb and your flow is how you must go
you're seeding ht future so go out and sow
sow from the wisdom deep in your womb
there's new life to come she's birthing through you
sow from your heart your dreams of unity
the earth is shaking people may we rise up in peace
sow from your passion what lights up your soul
the time is here for as all to glow
alight with the flame of our dreaming that burns
we are the force for this wheel to turn
beat of the earth I hear her loud and clear
beat of my heart pounding no need to fear
cries of the ones we lost to the flames
I stand in my power to honour their names
beat of your body guiding the way
trusting in the unman the womens way
weaving our medicine to bless these days
it was our grandmothers mothers who showed us the way
beat of the wild she knows our names
dancing to our beat we cannot be shamed
beat so strong its rousing everyone
we're waking we're coming home let it be known
the weave of this cloth is coming undone
the threads unraveling one by one
and from the same thread a new earth is sewn
i see my sisters rising we are never alone
we sang for this moment prayed for this day
call on your blood to show you the way
blood of your womb, blood of your bones
as a wild one stirs another stick is undone
timelines are changing and cycles are breaking
in the void of this moment a new world we are making
weave to the beat of the wild within
being a woman was never a sin
rouse, rise, reach its our time to fly
take rest and root its our time to stand by
to hear the beat of our wisdoms from the past
sung back to us restoring peace at last
beat rising up nobody can stop
hear her primal roar from seas to mountain tops
beat of the woman beat of all life
beat of your body play it with pride
beat of the earth shes calling us again
beat of her heart of love that never ends
beat of a war drum that heralds in peace
no sides to choose just our bright future to seed
beat of the drum she's calling us back
beat of our hearts wild from the start
beat of the earth loud and clear
beat rising up for us all to hear
