how dare you
tell me i ain’t the sun when
you ain’t ever been so warm when
i be so beaming so damn
bright sometimes
you can’t even
look at me when
you come home how
dare you tell me i ain’t the sun when
i make brown boys brown
make ‘em sing and yell
oh what you want from me when
you come home
brown boy don’t
dare you tell me i ain’t the
Son
i make brown boys turn gold
make ‘em run and sweat glitter
how dare you tell me i ain’t
the sun when
they call me Ra
i weep and give life to Man who
build pyramids in my name
be Atem come night
middle name be Saffron
last name be yoursif you want ithow dare you
tell me i ain’t the sun when
i be responsible for flowers
worlds too how dare you
leave before winter when
i be responsible for seasons
the rain and hurricanes too
how dare you
sleep on me when
i be responsible for mourning
time too
when
you comin’ home?
i rise soon
and how dare you
tell me i ain’t the sun when
i been feeding the earth
since before i was given a body
i knew love would look like you
so when
you come home don’t
dare you tell me
you ain’t the one when
you come home how dare you
tell me i ain’t the fuckin’ sun
you ain’t ever been so warned
