Lyrics Shekere (feat. lojii) - Moor Mother , lojii

Gather in a circle, my purpose
My collective work (yeah, here we go)
My responsibility to the Earth, to the hurt
I rework, self-determination, shootout my-
We will outlast, rise up from the past
Our future sway with that ass
Guess we Osiris in Cali now
We rise up, who gon′ hold us down?
Black fist and golden crown, ancient sound
They can't hold us down
(Shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek)

Shekere
They put the pain on me
They put the shame on me
They were afraid of me (shekere)

Shake it off, all my pain
Open up my arms underneath the rain
Saying as it feels when the music playing
Drowning out my day, I let it wash away
Gotta stop trying to carry all the pain
One glass nigga, nothing carry all the rain
Can′t be afraid to drown when the flood come
Know this steady flow better than a lump sum
Piling up your plague on your bum-bum
Money stress, got too much dip on your chip, but yum-yum
Yeah, be my guest, do what you gotta do
Don't let it get stuck in your chest though
You gotta stretch
I shake it off, all my pain
Open up my arms underneath the rain
Saying is it feeling? Is the music graying?
Drowning out my day, I let it wash away
(Shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek, shek)

Shekere, shekere
Shekere, shekere
Shekere, shekere (shek, shek, shek, shek, shek)
(I have the pain on me)
(I have the shame on me)
(They put the blame on me)
Shekere, shekere
Shekere, shekere
(They sent the beast on me)
(They seem to hate on me)
(They ain't the one for me)
(They ain′t the one for me)
(They sent the beast on me)

Guess we Osiris in Cali now
Rise up, who gon′ hold us down?
