Lyrics: genius.com/Madame-gandhi-lets-begin-im-soarin-lyrics

The distance they say from the head to the heart is only 14 centimeters but it’s sort of a life long journey isn’t it?

This right here is a collaboration with like forty or fifty incredible musicians from all over the planet, (Brrrrrha!)

Coming together to reflect on how music can open us up, make us feel more receptive to expansion, positivity, change.

And really when we come together, there’s no stopping us isn’t it? (Ay ay brrrrrha!)

[Chorus]
Wide awake
Mеditate
Startin’ off strong it’s another day
I don’t wait
Appreciatе
All that has come and is on its way
This work’s important
I stay supported
I’m fighting for it
Ya I’m soarin’

And so often we think that our pain, our experiences of oppression are unique to us.

But I’ve learned in my journey the more I very gently, very kindly, very reasonably express my ideas, my voice, I find great resonance.

How can I use my purpose, my gifts, my joy to give back?

[Chorus]
Wide awake
Meditate
Startin’ off strong it’s another day
I don’t wait
Appreciate
All that has come and is on its way
This work’s important
I stay supported
I’m fighting for it
Ya I’m soarin’
Ya I’m soarin’
Ya I’m soarin’
Ya I’m soarin’!
