I feel that you’ve been running
free and untamed black beauty
bursting through the last relationship’s finish line.
Tucking in your love beneath your wounds
as you swift through tryin’ to get ahead of the wind.
Yesterday, sweats off your achilles
and fills puddles into the footprints
that you’ve left behind.
I see you huffing and puffin
blew down the house that wasn’t a home
tryin’ to catch your breath
and return the life that squeezed out of your bruised lungs.
I want to see the moon in your eyes
I wish that you could feel that serenity again.
I know you feel pressured but
don’t you understand gravity ain’t got a damn thang on you?
Use that eternal fire from your ablazing aura
to launch into your rightful throne in your royal blue sky.
Fly girl, ah-ha. You deserve to be tiptoeing across the horizons
and taking back the control of your universe.
I see you’ve been running.
Inhaling yesterday.
Exhaling tomorrow.
Living off of today.
It ain’t what you’re running from
it’s what you’re running to.
Run to the sky and take control of the new you
The old you that your new skin grew into.
