Themes: intimate love between advocates and people who share communal values; social/platonic love between organizers and communities they serve; the ability of beings and objects of all sizes and shapes to produce major impact (i.e. sun, moon, tidal waves); the unassuming nature of small but very powerful forces; law of attraction; the anger of unassuming labor organizers who can sing and the awkwardness of folks trying to sing when they can’t but they are so genuine that it just still might be emotionally stirring :) haha
lyrics
There’s something unconquered there inside you
I’ve got a monster wave inside me too
Oh You’re my secret
my best kept secret
We’re caught in corn maze we can’t escape
But Deep down inside we both know the way
shhh it’s a secret
Best kept secret
Even the sun and the moon
Both have roles to play
One’s smaller than the other
One’s further away
Here we bloom
Rolling on our paths
We might spin away
then come back to each other
We’re in tune
Keep standing by don’t ignore the tide
You sit by the door, outside we’ll get organized
Keep your phone charged, call me when I message twice
I think about you when I’m busy which is every night
There’s something unconquered there—-
Excuse me
You’re my type-o
I’m a typhoon
You’re a monsoon
What we leave today
Let’s break tomorrow afternoon
Spin the block
And overhaul
The pharaoh’s tomb
You’re a Moses mood
Ain't I a whole Sojurner Truth
Excuse
Me and my type-O
Feed mosquitos well
The evidence
it itches right around the swell
All the numbers tell
Screen the porch
Let’s sit a spell
Never off of work
Funding their trips to Seychelles
Palatial mansion on the lake
In Gatlinburg as well
We bury anger deep
Magic treasure not for sale
There’s something unconquered there inside you
I’ve got a monster wave inside me too
Oh You’re my secret
my best kept secret
We’re caught in corn maze we can’t escape
But Deep down inside we both know the way
shhh it’s a secret
Best kept secret
When the hearing is adjourned
And we’ve all gone our way
Too angry to discuss
The choices me made
We’ll meet soon
The roads to Aaliyah
All interlaced
We’ll come back to each other
We’re in tune
Keep your sails high don’t ignore the tide
As you explore please be careful who you lay beside
The story of our seasons written there across the sky
There’s freedom there, there’s freedom here in you and I
There’s something unconquered there —
Outside or inside with wild imaginations
Uncivilized civil rights connoisseurs
Theater patrons
Genre mixers
Big booty jigglers
Breakers and fixers
Floor moppers
Warehouse stockers
Raisers of children
Our rhythm can be chippy at times
That’s more a symptom
System thrives and finds fuel
In our Division
But
I
Am not a victim
You
Are not a victim
We
have all been given a voice
inside
Listen
There’s something unconquered there inside you
I’ve got a monster wave inside me too
Oh You’re my secret
my best kept secret
We’re caught in corn maze we can’t escape
But deep down inside we both know the way
Shhh it’s a secret
Best kept secret
Even the sun and the moon
Both have roles to play
One’s smaller than the other
One’s further away
