Glad Ozark introduced me to this work of art. She can spit lyrics for days--spiritual, lyrical, miracle. Keep at it Sampa, birds and bees ain't got nothin' on you.

Does anyone else feel a collective energy shift amongst women? I feel like collectively we are coming back into our power. That's why this song is so powerful, I feel like we are all feeling this on a Spiritual level.

[shyaluyvone]

This is art. This is culture. This is the energy.

So happy to finally see this woman being noticed. She’s been slept on for far too long.

This woman is pure art 🌿🖤

This video is thick with ancestral energy, spirituality & sensuality. It’s absolutely stunning, a perfect compliment to the verbals, the vocals & the music. I just love it.

❤️LYRIC❤️
Rhythm of life jam nation
You realize all the time we wasting
You realize all the pain we facing
Please pour a cup
Feminine libation
My gosh we racing
Please sympathize all the lives we raising
Please realize all the time
Female energy
Drank a couple quarters on my chorus then I caught up
If I ruled the world, money stacks for all my daughters
Never asked for payment in the womb times nine
Now we see the blood on the streets times' trying
Feminine energy balance up the indestructible
In the vaginal, heaven in thine, heaven is mine
Spiritual lyrical
Mother sang sweet as taboo'rical kind
If I was astonished by the level of shame
Feminine energy, energy reign
Intuition and ambition, intuition strange
Intuition and ambition running through my veins
Pour up the love let the healing begin
The birds and the bees
Ain't got nothing on me
The birds and the bees
Ain't got nothing on me
Energy
Big, big, big up that energy
Big, big up that energy
Big man, I said big up that energy
Big, big up that energy
Big, kid up that energy
Famble abeg you listen me
Abeg you open your yhes for yhere wetin I dey say
Wetin I dey talk
Na serious talk I dey talk oh
No be trangayhes pikin
Listen
In dis wol we dey oh
Memba say ya
One day go cam
Wen we all go go
Before long we go meet mama god oh
When we meet mama god oh
Tell me, wetin you go say?
Rhythm of life jam nation
You realize all the time we wasting
You realize all the pain we facing
Please pour a cup feminine libation
My gosh we racing
Please sympathize all the lives we raising
Please realize all the time
Female energy
One shot, two shot, three times sorrows
Carry all the weight of the world on your shoulders
Give a couple crowns to the women who had bore us
Taught us, focus, love and support us
Magical, umbilical my universe is radical
Introduce the nation to embracing what is factual
Feminine energy almost mathematical
You can't really sum up what is infinite and valuable
Feminine energy balance up the indestructible
In the vaginal heaven in thine
She sing a melody to pass the time
Give us her energy so she heal mine
If I was astonished by the level of shame
Feminine energy never shame again
Reign, tamed, brain, praying
Intuition and ambition running through my veins
Pour up the love let the healing begin
The birds and the bees
Ain't got nothing on me
The birds and the bees
Ain't got nothing on me
Energy
Big, big, big up that energy
Big, big up that energy
Big man, I said big up that energy
Big, kid up that energy
Big, big up that energy
Big, big, big up that energy
Big man, big man I said big up that energy
Big, kid up that energy
Energy, energy
Energy, energy
