Lyrics

I used to hate my voice
The sound of it
My singing voice, my speaking voice
I used to hate my voice
I can't really tell you why but, I did
and the older I've gotten the more I understand that
our areas of great insecurity are usually an indicator of where our superpowers lie
like, the room in the temple that is you
the room in which your intrusive voices set up camp
that should tell you what you're here to do for the tribe
and that's...
that's hard. Thinking about how to serve the tribe without a sense of self
this is why I speak so like,loudly and passionately about self cav and self love
I..
I'm of the belief that good people..
when good people are selfish.. the world is better place
like, if you... if your departure point is making the world a better place
like, that makes you feel good
you know??
if. if. if showing the people you love makes You feel good
then surely your selfishness is a superpower for the community, right?
surely you serving you serves us and the people
so, I guess we just need more good people
but like, I'm a very big advocate for selfishness
and I think this is...
this is part of my qualm with religion
I mean, I have quite a few qualms with religion
do we have time for that? (laughs)

We're taught that self-sacrifice is the highest level...
the highest form of love
that's Christ-like love, right??
But. Wh.. How... how.. how can we be okay if I'm not?
how can the village be okay when I'm sacrificing myself
when I'm dying, when I'm burning, I'm disappearing
that doesn't sound right. that doesn't s.. nah
mark me absent. right?
So, I'm really big on us finding our voices and expressing ourselves
Learning self. Self cav. Self Love. you know?
Operating from a place of God being inside you
you know? The gratitude and the praise, the worship being poured into you
because you understand that God is inside you
That you are God!
Not in some vain, problematic way but just in a way where you really live in your superpowers
living in you, You know?
