Risk It - Nahko And Medicine For The People

Every cell is transforming and returning to original concepts to construct
And then I started to shapeshift... and the animals within me grew tails and the talons
I hitched a ride on the back of a whale, to the darkest of the ocean and ate off the bottom
And then I traveled dimensions... in the places I rode upon elephants and zebras...

Elephants and zebras...

Well I dreamed of my future big time, yeah
What it would be like to always have clean water
And if you left the trees standing...and they filtered the air and we breathed it in deeply
Well I traveled across Native America and saw the sickness taking form in all the small children
Well if I could give you my people, yeah, well a piece of my peace will be with you always...
If I could give you my people, yeah, well a piece of my peace will be with you always...

Be with you always...

I never thought I needed medicine but I was spiritually dying, I needed some healing, so I opened my mouth and took a dose of the music
Then I stopped and prayed for guidance now teach me to use it
I prayed for guidance yeah teach me to use it
I prayed for guidance now give me the music

And it definitely matters how you look at it and it definitely matters how you look at it
So if you think you can risk it, well, what an opportunity to be free of it
Well if you think you can risk it, well, what an opportunity to be free of it

I heard, I heard yeah the wild horses were blazing trails through uncertain territory
I run as fast as the cheetah is... and I catch a ride on the back of the great and mighty Condor
And then I took my place in the choir, was singing the songs of freedom and progress
And we're delivering the babies yeah, and we're birthing up the next generation
Said we're delivering the babies yeah, and we're birthing up the next generation

I never thought I needed medicine but I was spiritually dying, I needed some healing, so I opened my mouth and took a dose of the music
Then I stopped and prayed for guidance yeah teach me to use it
