Risk It Lyrics & Tabs by Nahko and Medicine for the People
Risk It
guitar chords lyrics
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,
I saw the sickness taking form in all the small children
And they filtered the air and we breathed it in deeply
Well I traveled across Native America,
I 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
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,
I were blazing trails through uncertain territory,
I take a toke and reflect with coyote,
I were dreaming up new ways to bring the outcasts home,
I take my place in the choir,
I was singing the songs of freedom and progress
And we're delivering the babies yeah,
And we're building up the next seven generations
Said we're delivering the babies yeah,
And we're building up the next seven generations
Seven generations
Seven generations
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 now 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,
Said if you think you can risk it, well,
What an opportunity to be free of it
Mouthing off,
Such aggressive behavior,
I'm sounding off,
Holding my temper,
It comes in waves,
My enemies swim close to me,
My heart's displaced,
Connected to such bravery,
My hunger waits,
I cannot swallow, I cannot swallow,
I am all over the place,
My spirit bellows, My spirt bellows,
I am on my way,
My body follows, my body follows,
Written on my face,
Well do not follow, do not follow... me
