Lyrics:
To me it’s such a mystery
Strong, smart women throughout history yet their gifts we don’t really see. HIS STORY is focused on HIS GLORY .. I think it’s now mandatory we start taking inventory ..tell the whole truth, yeah the whole story… Women rule the world, that’s Girl Power! Fists up in the air, it’s our finest hour. Long, slow trudge trying to make it up this tower. We’re rescuing ourselves, female Jack Bauer. Through oceans in time, the journey, super potent in these rhymes. The female rise from decline. Went from royal bloodlines, to second class citizens. Making less dividends than men because of preference. Run that back?? They tried to deny our validity. We passed that. Success story, like a female MC running rap. Imagine that.. Charging toward the peak, we could never plat-eau. Rise and grind’s the motto. Flying high on auto. It took a hard fight to win our voter rights. We realized our strength. Game over good night… The dream stayed in sight. For each small child, with big dreams. Focused on the sky because the world is not what it seems. 236 years, we are finally doing our thing…. Possibility guides us, yeah, we found our wings. Call me Condi Rice with my diction. Minus all the fiction. We’re holding high court. Modern inquisition. Standing on the shoulders of giants. Preaching self reliance. Sometimes you can only break free by being defiant. Yelling through the silence. I’m the Sojourner of Truth, we must learn and empower. Then pass it to the youth. Each day’s a new milestone. Hold the phone like a dial tone. We’ve been over here stretching. Now it’s time for the sprint home. Shipped from Noah’s Arc, skip to Joan of Arc. A woman against an army, she provided the spark. Shining Light on the rift of two world’s set apart. We’re taught to focus more on Tutankhamen but our roots were not uncommon. Cleopatra. Skin of almond. Strength of steel. Queen of all men. Don’t forget, Mary Magdalene walked beside Christ. Washed him, prepared his grave. Love and sacrifice. Thinking they could ever hold us down, think twice. Progress is paid in full, sisters passed paid the price. Decades from Susan B. Anthony. Our youth will see the first woman Presidency. We’ve infiltrated government. Affected policy. Soon this land will really be “the land of the free”. Rosa Parks was thrown in jail over a seat. Now we’re seated in the boys club, kicking up our feet. Michelle Obama’s known for giving a killer speech, but we won’t raise the bar until we practice what we preach.

To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget. — Arundhati Roy #love #heart #starkidz

The best part of life is not just surviving, but thriving with passion and compassion and humor and style and generosity and kindness. - #MayaAngelou It is so easy for someone to say the best part of life is thriving with #passion and #compassion , #humor and #style , #generosity and #kindness , but they have never lived in our shoes, have they? I know it is not easy out there for a lot of people and #survival is a #victory for a lot of them at the end of the day. What would it take to not only #survive , but to thrive? For anyone to #thrive it doesn’t matter what your circumstances are, I know it is easy for me to say that right. Well it is true, to thrive all you need to do is cultivate #emotions like passion, generosity and kindness. You can feel anything you want to right now because you are in complete #control of your emotions. If you don’t believe me, well that is a whole other conversation and feel free to email me, and I will show how this is true. Back to thriving, what emotions would you need to feel consistently in order to thrive? Seriously, what do you need to feel in order to thrive. Do yourself a favor and write them down? Have you ever felt those emotions? I am betting you have felt over 90% of them if not all of them at some point in your life. How long has it been since you have felt them? How #powerful will you feel when you are able to feel all those emotions at once consistently? Would it matter what your circumstance are at that moment when you felt that powerful? Isn’t it time to drop the story of why you aren’t thriving? We all have the emotional resources available to us to move mountains. You can choose to enjoy the best part of life by thriving at any moment. Why then would you settle for the emotions that result in mere survival? #GoGetIt #Starkidz www.facebook.com/starrkidzz www.reconnections.net
