The ships are sailing

The ships are sailing
Steady holding their course
The ships are sailing
As we're closing old doors

The winds of change
Blow in the sails
The winds of change
Carrying the song of the Whales

Sharing wisdom long forgotten
Before only held by few
Sharing wisdom long forgotten
Telling us to embrace the new

The sea is mercyful
to those who listen
The sea is mercyful
To those who choose to conceive
her glisten

The rays of the sun reflected in her waves
They bring new strength
The rays of the sun reflected in her waves
Put injustice at length

To give way for our true Selves
To prevail
To give way for our true Selves
To hoist the sail

Having left the waters of
codependency
Independently sailing the rivers of
sovereignty
We now enter the sea of
unity
Where collectively we find our
interdependency

Setting course
to stories yet untold
Setting course
for a new way of living yet to unfold
