New Place

A new place, a new time
A new sun, new sun light
A new bed, a new night
A new hand to hold tight
A new plan at new heights
With new star shine, I might
Find new comfort, new fight
A new heart to call mine

Maybe it's right here, it's right now
Maybe with a future we envisioned
All that time ago
Maybe we still got time to go
Or maybe we're destined for light now
Maybe we got galaxies mapped out
On all our paths tomorrow
Maybe we're blasting off tomorrow

See me moonbeam, see me scatter
See us all up in your atmosphere
Fucking up it's matter
Try to break us, we won't falter
Throw your prison up to us now
Like grandmama on your altar
Day is coming when we done taught them
No more black folks left for you to
Keep on pushing through the bottom
Baby come now, all of us is waiting
It's okay if you feel nervous
Look at me, my hands are shaking

Maybe it's right here, it's right now
Maybe with a future we envisioned
All that time ago
Maybe we still got time to go
Or maybe we're destined for light now
Maybe we got galaxies mapped out
On all our paths tomorrow
Maybe we're blasting off tomorrow

Hurry, before they see that we're leaving
Don't worry, haven't you noticed you
Haven't been breathing?
Hurry, before they see that we're leaving
Don't worry, haven't you noticed you
Haven't been breathing?
