Risk It - Nahko and Medicine for the People[00:00:00]
Written by:Nahko[00:00:00]
Every cell is transforming and returning to original concepts to construct[00:00:00]
And then I started to shapeshift[00:00:07]
And the animals within me grew tails and the talons[00:00:10]
I hitched a ride on the back of a whale[00:00:14]
To the darkest of the ocean and ate off the bottom[00:00:17]
And then I traveled dimensions[00:00:21]
In the places I rode upon elephants and zebras[00:00:24]
Elephants and zebras[00:00:33]
Well I dreamed of my future big time yeah[00:00:35]
What it would be like to always have clean water[00:00:39]
And if you left the trees standing[00:00:42]
And they filtered the air and we breathed it in deeply[00:00:46]
Well I traveled across Native America[00:00:50]
And saw the sickness taking form in all the small children[00:00:52]
Well if I could give you my people yeah[00:00:57]
Well a piece of my peace will be with you always[00:01:00]
If I could give you my people yeah[00:01:04]
Well a piece of my peace will be with you always[00:01:07]
Be with you always[00:01:16]
Be with you always[00:01:23]
I never thought I needed medicine but I was spiritually dying[00:01:25]
I needed some healing[00:01:30]
So I opened my mouth and took a dose of the music[00:01:32]
Then I stopped and prayed for guidance now teach me to use it[00:01:35]
I prayed for guidance now teach me to use it[00:01:39]
I prayed for guidance now give me the music[00:01:43]
And it definitely matters how you look at it[00:01:47]
And it definitely matters how you look at it[00:01:50]
So if you think you can risk it well[00:01:54]
What an opportunity to be free of it[00:01:57]
Say if you think you can risk it well[00:02:01]
What an opportunity to be free of it[00:02:04]
I heard I heard yeah the wild horses I were blazing trails through uncertain territory[00:02:22]
I take a toke and reflect with coyote[00:02:29]
I were dreaming up new ways to bring the outcasts home[00:02:32]
I take my place in the choir[00:02:36]
I was singing the songs of freedom and progress[00:02:39]
And we're delivering the babies yeah[00:02:43]
And we're building up the next seven generations[00:02:47]
Said we're delivering the babies yeah[00:02:50]
And we're building up the next seven generations[00:02:54]
Seven generations[00:03:10]
I never thought I needed medicine but I was spiritually dying[00:03:12]
I needed some healing[00:03:17]
So I opened my mouth and took a dose of the music[00:03:18]
Then I stopped and prayed for guidance now teach me to use it[00:03:22]
I prayed for guidance now teach me to use it[00:03:26]
I prayed for guidance now give me the music[00:03:30]

What an opportunity to be free of it[00:03:44]
Said if you think you can risk it well[00:03:47]
What an opportunity to be free of it[00:03:51]
Mouthing off[00:04:09]
Such aggressive behavior[00:04:12]
I'm sounding off[00:04:15]
Holding my temper[00:04:19]
It comes in waves[00:04:22]
My enemies swim close to me[00:04:26]
My heart's displaced[00:04:29]
Connected to such bravery[00:04:33]
My hunger waits[00:04:36]
I cannot swallow I cannot swallow[00:04:40]
I am all over the place[00:04:44]
My spirit bellows my spirit bellows[00:04:47]
I am on my way[00:04:51]
My body follows my body follows[00:04:54]
Written on my face[00:04:58]
Well do not follow do not follow me[00:05:02]
