“Canary / Brave Warrior” Lyrics

Full Lyrics

I'm a canary in a coalmine, coalmine
I'm here to tell you that we're running out of time
Can't help but sing you my life song (life song)
What I know in my bones just can't be wrong

This wasn't the song I wanted to sing
But I am sure that this is just how it wants to ring
My imperfect lips, teeth, tongue, and throat
Just can't help but savor every single note

Singing release all judgments, all transgressions forgive
Dispel hate, greed, resentment, let go of fear to fully live

Now I can promise you there is a place between
Left, right, up and down, good bad, purple and green
This place arises all on its own
Like effervescent water carrying sea foam

When we Release all judgments, all transgressions forgive
Dispel hate, greed, resentment, let go of fear to fully live

Let go of fear to fully live
Let go of fear to fully live

Brave warrior, aligned with peace
Shining your light, I see you, I feel you
Brave warrior, let yourself heal
Let yourself mourn, I'm with you, I praise you

We can unite, we are rising
Each playing our unique role
Open to something surprising
Our roots will dig deep and take hold
Dandelion healing unfolds


Strong mother, full of compassion
Set loving boundaries, protecting the innocent
Jai jai Kali Ma, Jai Maha Durga
Jai Maha Lakshmi, Saraswati Om


We can unite, we are rising
Each playing our unique role
Open to something surprising
Our roots will dig deep and take hold
Dandelion healing unfolds

I'll shine a light for you
If you let it through
How do we discern what's true, and who earns our trust
Take the broader view

Jai jai Kali Ma, Jai Maha Durga
Jai Maha Lakshmi, Saraswati Om
Jai jai Kali Ma, Jai Maha Durga
Jai Maha Lakshmi, Saraswati Om

Let go of fear to fully live
Let go of fear to fully live
Let go of fear to fully live
