Balance

They say it’s a Man’s world/ but y’all forgot the next line/ it wouldn’t be nothing without the Feminine Divine/ we once were Yin and Yang/ we balanced each other out/ we did the dang thang/ I was Isis to your Osiris/ birthing the gods/ now I am Bitch, Cunt, Whore/ what are the odds/ you rewrote the story/ and edited me out/ but without me/ you have no clout/ I am standing on my throne/ ready for war/ I ain’t taking this shit/ anymore/ a warrior goddess/ I am Mother of Nine/ remember my name/ it’s Oya-Iyansan/ I’ll dance destruction/ to rebirth you/ as Shango/ so that this mess can be untangled/ I’ve been with you/ since the beginning of time/ Lillith to your Adam/ but you threw me aside/ Man fuck Eve/ she’s only a part of you/ I am your equal/ in a love that is true/ but my strength you called blasphemy/ and me, a serpent/ I’ll be kind/ if you just repent/ own the lies that you invent/ never was I your downfall/ I was your backbone/ in other words/ I helped you stand tall/ don’t you remember/ you called me Sofia (Wisdom)/ and loved me/ until/ you tried to wipe me out/ but my name is/ still/ spoken out loud/ I am your Philosophy/ I have not forgotten/ my sacrafices/ are still praised/ say my name/ say my name/ when everybody’s around/ if you ain’t running game/ I am the Obsidian Butterfly/ Itzapapalotl/ and I am not shy/ I will eat you alive/ my war games are up to snuff/ while yours are just a puff/ of smoke/ I hope you choke/ then I can breathe into you/ my spirit/ reanimate/ sow we can be intimate/ celebrants in Hieros Gamos/ God & Goddess/ bringing the world back/ into Balance
