My Ancestors

To the beats of the drum,
I woke up singing, singing a song.
A song sang by my ancestors.
They were strong, so strong.
They knew they came to shift the course of life during their time.
They were not afraid, as they knew fear only places shackles on your strength.

I woke up singing, singing a song.
A song sang by my ancestors.
As tears dropped heavily on my cheeks,
I closed my eyes and sang with all my heart.
I knew right away I came here to shift the course of life in this present time.
