You still have your name.
The stars will come out for you
I know we may all be scared of the shadows,
the sun has been threatening to leave and never come back.
The fear is that this life, like everything else, doesn't hold us dearly
they will tell you your tears are just salty water
You know they are extrements of your soul.
You cry silently when you do
Everything is broken
even our hands.
So we'll give the world a break
turn off the blazing fires of baptism
we sometime put ourself through
just to prove we are human.
Because being human has been a colour,
a number, a rope against one not worthy to live
being human has been surrender, faith, joy and peace
We have gathered at the birth of different times to redefine ourselves
Unity has been one of our names
We respond to it now
And will continue to
when we are reunited again
Folks, they sometimes call us.
There is power in gathering
But even shadows of doom do.
Only lingering over spaces
Our breaths are wasted if not taken
with purpose.
Freedom, a sweet identity for one and all
You will always have your name.
