Lyrics

Verse 1

And for you and for me

I breathe I breathe I breathe

I wake I wake I wake

Verse 2

And for you and for me

I rise I rise I rise

I embrace embrace embrace

Verse 3

And for you and for me

I grow I grow I grow

I make space for empathy to be the path I take

And when it's time to pass along what once was mine

Verse 4

I pray you breathe you breathe you breathe

I pray you wake you wake you wake

Verse 5

I pray you rise you rise you rise

I pray you embrace embrace embrace

Verse 6

I pray you grow you grow you grow

I pray you make space for your heart to feel brave!

And for you and for me by God's grace

Context

I wrote, performed, & produced this song upon request from social justice-focused congregation University Baptist Church in MN USA where he has helped lead in music and many other community causes. This loving, accessibly simple, deeply resonant, and meditatively grounding vocal journey nourishes the flame of mentorship and mutual support.

Thank you so much to the many family & friends for your thoughtful feedback, support, and personal resonance with the meditative music and spiritual message of this song!

To create this song, I specifically:

- performed everything you hear with my natural voice

- wrote/composed with MuseScore, Google Docs, digital keyboard, and a mobile audio recorder

- audio recorded with Blue Yeti mic and Audacity software

- audio produced with Audacity, Pro Tools, and Dolby Atmos software

- video recorded and photographed with various digital cameras

- video produced with DaVinci Resolve software

- images produced with Gimp and Pixlr
