The references to the ancestors, laying out offerings, the set and wardrobe styling... just beautiful.

They way we see Kehlani grow as a person her healing journey she’s happier than ever and I’m here to see it she’s glowing and growing. 🥺

[njeriallen]

This song brings tears to my eyes. It’s beautiful and the more you listen the more you feel what she’s saying and makes you think about a loved one. Definitely hit me different when I watched the video. I could not hold not one tear back or get through the first half. The footprints is what did it lol I’ve been listening to this since she dropped it.

[sabdullah]

I'm here for all the artists getting in touch with their roots and incorporating the "Sacred Woman" in the creation of their works. This is beautifully done. My sister lost her mother earlier this year.... 😢... watching her process of healing.. arranging her altar... wearing white all year... I truly appreciate the authenticity of this song. Thank you, Kehlani..

"Altar"

Fresh white flowers and a new tea light
Nine cups of water, still water
Soon I'll see your face
Don't know why I ever thought you were far away
I shouda known better

If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar
Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)
Laid it out for ya
Thought I felt you before
Now you're closer
Closer (Whoa)
So I put you on the altar
Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)
Laid it out for ya
Thought I felt you before
Now you're closer
Closer (Whoa, whoa)

Holding on to things you told me
Holding on to dreams you showed me
Holding on to anything from you
That you've been leaving here
Now I believe I swear
I can smell your perfume
Picking up your signal like a phone booth
Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to

If I set a flame and I call your name
I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner
We can share a meal your way
And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

So I put you on the altar
Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)
Laid it out for ya
Thought I felt you before
Now you're closer
Closer (Whoa)
So I put you on the altar
Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)
Laid it out for ya
Thought I felt you before
Now you're closer
Closer (Whoa, whoa)

This song describes exactly how I feel about my grandma, even though she's not here in the physical she's always with me in spirit, I carry her with me everywhere. ❤

[weakassfadestan]

Always get my respect with releasing a lead single that does not sound the same as anything on the radio. The facts she’s giving us an era! A moment! That tells a story throughout is very nostalgic and therapeutic to say the least. Music is her passion not just a money grab. Can’t wait for the album

[heylo]

The way Kehlani's spirituality just shimmers through this song. Genuinely moved.
Also props to her dancer partner! Just lovely.

[shanequabryant]

This song has me crying. I literally felt my grandma's presence.

[brandonflorio]

This song means so much to me.
10 months ago I lost my big brother to Covid and right around that time this song came out. The lyrics hit so close to home. Playing the music they loved. Eating their favorite food. Looking at old pictures to remember every single memory. My grief is nowhere near over. But everytime I hear this song I look up and say hi to my guardian angel and I tell him how much I miss him. Loss is such a terrible part of love. But if you never grieve that means you never loved. Thank you Kehlani. You really saved my life.
