Break 03:37
I need a break because I’ve broken any promise that I told when I sowed them seeds and soaked them in gasoline and burned them By way of my nature flame tree gnarled thing with RIP scarring etched beneath my leaves inside hearts that bleed sap I Been sad been half been glad to learn when sin begat sin and it cut me down tim-ber. Oh her? Convert hurt into holy space confused comforting with grace Confused supportive wit support beam, can depend on me turned codependent yes that’s my biggest branch you can bend it s**t I ...break Universe get its way when I get in my way I need a break... [To] take old habits outta fashion and fasten my seat to my solitary tree house Move this out, move without uprooting ground that keeps me sound while detoxing pulling weeds I don’t… I need a lake Of self-love to wash my self-loathe and toss the excess of being so exposed what an expose never pity partay if you’d like to parlay never know me partly - but - see - here I go again. prioritizin’ what another may like no mother may I! All I need is mary mary mary self F****n’ wit no other health heaven sent me to break just to take what’s felt and find a way to super glue & Stick together like ants two by two when the rain fall down and wash me out and all my intricate designs stood strong for a time, even w its own vibe, emanate its own beat grew its own feet then blink i wake… up Once i break up. I & inside empty space to take up. And all i can do to make up - is face the mirror Disperse the fog fairy tale so I’m clearer New truth nearer passed truth now was Check the state of my soil push pass surf-ace Fact check thought seeds I bring into fruition now as a ritual and never superstition Supercede programs of the holographic make my wood good like god moanin - not pornographic Love first factor of my tree so when I multiply she happy and healthy as can be ask and see we receive all answers we could need in the darkness of a Pantheons greed pardoned beyond a Resting place where Green is parted [and] a small Chrysanthemum starts kindergarten only kind of understands trespassing holy lands I… I need a stake To drive my own sign i’m using my own kind a sacrificial device Send a message to every being who visits, got my AK protections No weapon formed with or without intention shall prosper My Blessing born of the biggest shocker soul shift like resuscitation at the doctor Prayer is all i can offer, self and for her father sometimes... More than enough envelopes been pushed to cross the line Return to sender We like a blender But Once fruits collide - can find an old ends-a new beginning Sweet w/o artificial syrup is the ink that I’m penning Spirit says your path is clear for the winning If it ain’t right it ain’t ripe not yours for the picking Stick to what I now know, swim in forgiveness I wade in the waters and dissolved in the cleansing

about

THE CLEANSING unfolded as an act of raw honesty, born of necessary deep healing work. I wrote it on the other side of an unplanned pregnancy, a commitment to the fantasy of a family with someone I created codependent patterns with, a painful miscarriage that shattered that fantasy, and an experiment in breaking up. ✨🌊✨ A friend told me “When you break up with someone, you need to go cold turkey and cut all contact. Otherwise, it will be like an active volcano between you - you never know when it’s going to erupt!” This is what sparked the experimental detox, the cleansing from addiction to codependent patterns, and the liberation of healing with self-central love that became an album.
