You are the altar.

You are the altar, sweet child, Not the candles

The fire in your belly for life is the true fire!

It ain't about the table and da fancy statues

Dem tings is nice, baby, but what we truly care about is

You.

Is you restin’ like you should?

Is you placin’ boundaries to hold steady in dis here ol’ life!

Are you reclaimin’ your Black joy?

We want to see you give ya self some mo’ grace

We want ya to choose folks dem folks dat choose you and get in betta relationships wit folks!

The way you love on your fellow Black peeples matters!

And The healing you allow

And STOP sayin’ your fu!@ed up ways is ya personality cause it ain't it's your unwillingness to change baby!

Be the living altar and let dat shit goooo!

You Gotta Let Go!

Now Baby Dats the offering!

Dats the prayer.

Dats the altar.… You!

Be the living prayer

Wit Love & Grace

Ya Ancestors !
