lyrics

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

And I would like to believe
There's something more beautiful
Post funeral
Something ethereal
The upper echelon
With our higher spirituals
Psychoanalytical
Leave the Earth
Out of the physical

Is this what dreams are made of?
Recipes are made of?
What is it that I'm made of?

Gods creation
I adore us
I'm made of star dust
I obtain the power
From all the ancestors
Here before us
Make a bigger impact
But what is a life
Without sin
Cant find lessons
Without the blessings
Hidden from within
I do this for a better earth
I do this for my kids
Lokelanimotherearth
Sit back
Relax and reminisce
I'm tired of being judged
For the color of my skin
My eyes Like the dirt
Hold the secrets
Of the earth
Hidden from within
If you are the sea
Then I'm the land
Waves crash on the shore
And head back to ocean

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

A schema
Best believer
The overachiever
The dream weaver
Baker in the shop
Like Anita
Walk up in the spot
Gwen stefani
No doubt
I'll leave ya speechless
Don't speak
Unless I need to
I'll be greedy
Get what I want
I want it all
I be needy
I need it
I want it now
Manifest
As much
As Veruca salt
In the chocolate house
Somehow
No permission
But
I'm allowed
Holy cow
Y'all recognize my style
Its the Flower child
Mother earth
I do it
With a smile
Ain't it funny
Barefeet
Pushin off the ground
Head in the clouds
Sweet as honey
Aint it wild
It's that Pittsburgh sound
Drippin in rose quartz
I go Leaps and bounds
Finally put in the work
I go pound for pound
See what I'm worth
I go pound for pound
See what I'm worth

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

If you didn't know
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
Your life is gold

Your life is
Your life is
My sweet indigo
Well now you know
My sweet indigo
