Energy (feat. Elena Brower) Songtext
Dear shame and doubt
I hold a knowing that is deeper than what's palpable
And although you seem to protect me from pain unimaginable
I know there's more meaning in you
It's slowly becoming legible
I'm here to refine my heart's vocabulary
To see what hurts more clearly
So I can perceive this pain as my own treasure and healing
I'm here to stay with myself
To hold myself close
I hold a knowing that is deeper than what's palpable
And although you seem to protect me from pain unimaginable
I know there's more meaning in you
It's slowly becoming legible
I'm here to refine my heart's vocabulary
To see what hurts more clearly
So I can perceive this pain as my own treasure and healing
I'm here to stay with myself
To hold myself close
I'm here to practice courage and quietly let go of righteousness, hurtfulness, doubt, complacency
To learn how to navigate all this emotionality with care
With judiciousness, with gratitude, intelligently
I'm here to grow my prayers into relations with my own conscience, my own integrity
I'm here to fully participate in my reality
May we remind ourselves
That what hurts is a luminous teaching
May we untangle that pain from the majesty of our being
May the fullness and the emptiness be an opening and expanding
May this love, this dedication, this place of peace be our softest landing
May we remember that our actions have an impact on all of humanity
And we may say what's been unsaid with kindness, with dignity
May the next breath carry us home, again and again
Instantly
Take one deep breath
To learn how to navigate all this emotionality with care
With judiciousness, with gratitude, intelligently
I'm here to grow my prayers into relations with my own conscience, my own integrity
I'm here to fully participate in my reality
May we remind ourselves
That what hurts is a luminous teaching
May we untangle that pain from the majesty of our being
May the fullness and the emptiness be an opening and expanding
May this love, this dedication, this place of peace be our softest landing
May we remember that our actions have an impact on all of humanity
And we may say what's been unsaid with kindness, with dignity
May the next breath carry us home, again and again
Instantly
Take one deep breath
