Who am I without my story Without my name Without my gender Without my race Who am I without the boundaries of age Who am I without traditions and dictates Who am I without the history of slavery And the diasporic march that tried to break me When I take these things away what lies beneath? Is there anything really real or is it just belief Can I celebrate all the traditions and yet know that they are not me Can I see the distortion of racism, the e-race of history Can I honour the pain of those past and yet know that the past is not me Can I honour a race, a movement and still be able to see that I am more than this So much more than this I am more than this So much more than this I am more than this So much more than this I Am here to ask these questions Go deeper than these surface tensions I Am here to find the answer And go all the way All the way All the way If I meet one who judges me as less than And themselves as more than Do I have to agree Or can their opinion be just that An opinion, only given power by me And If I come across systematic injustice Do I need to wail and bemoan my fate Or can I dig to the root of that distortion And find, another way to play Can I choose to use the master's tools To dismantle the master's house And if the master's house is built on lies Then don't worry For Truth must always come to pass And if that be so, and so it is Then that house must crumble to dust Under the weight of Truth's convictions It all goes beyond mere trust I Am here to ask these questions Go deeper than these surface tensions I Am here to find the answer And go all the way All the way All the way And though constrictions may last an hour A day or centuries of time Know that something in this world is Always moving towards greater freedom Because true Freedom travels untrammeled by Societal and cultural games It's inexorable unfolding so clear To those who have eyes right here So who am I without my story I'm the Awareness of it all I see me in you, and you in me All our hurts, our positivity Our fear and our love Our dark and our light Our hopes and our dreams, universe-ality I see our judgment Our acceptance Our loneliness and our love There's a greater story, leading us all to seek A Universal Story, leading us all to seek It's Eternally Told Eternally Whole Eternally Told Eternally Whole I came here to ask these questions Go deeper than these surface tensions I came here to find the answers And go all the way All the way All the way
