Decolonize

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm trying to decolonize my mind
This may take time but I promise I will start
Shine a light on the darkest corners of my heart
To unlearn the racist and oppressive ideologies that are ingrained in the fabric of our society
Might not realize they're there, but they are
But if we know where we are, and where we from
We might learn how we all can

[Chorus]
I know, I see
Actual possibility
I know, I see
Actual possibility

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm a guest here on indigenous soil
And my brother, you've been a gracious host
I'll endeavor to earn my keep
And my sister, I'll do all that I can to defend thee from misogyny
It seems to be at the root of this destructive hand [?]
Moving forward's gon' be messy
But there's a hunger, we are rich, there are lessons for us all

[Chorus]
I know, I see
Actual possibility
I know, I see
Actual possibility

[Verse 3]
Well I'm learning to be an ally now
For the voices of the elders and land
And to appropriate is not appropriate
But there's a line that's fine and some'll just ride
We will meet in a field
And I can feel the sunshine on the faces now
There'll be time for our tears to dry
Moving forward, boldly, to this bright future
I'm sure glad to have you by my side

[Chorus]
I know, I see
Actual possibility
I know, I see
Actual possibility

[Outro]
Well, I'm trying to decolonize my mind
This may take time, but I promise I will start
