Snotty Nose Rez Kids - Peaks & Valleys Lyrics

Yawtch, Wak'la'kla kelasue nugwa
Hi, I'm child of the moon, uh-huh
Gayclin Haisla-hay
He-hulgh-haynulgh-nugwa
Haisla
Came a long way from the rez
Couldn't grow without the rain I guess
Can't lie man, mama said it best
"Don't stress young man, you blessed" (blessed)
And it can always be worse
The universe test you, I know that shit hurts
Before you succeed, you gotta fail first
But at the end of the day please remember your worth

Fast lane on the highway of tears
Believe I done shed many tears
Father sky became clear
This spiritual healing right here
Dear to the man in the mirror
I lost count of the times that you fall
But ancestors out number your fears
Bundle bundle sage ya'll

Uh, yeah, I smudge and I pray with my wifey for lifey
Or cleanse with the flow of the river, icy
I'm loyal to my team, Spike Lee
Brownsville Family, iced tea
Will I ever switch? Not likely
Child of the moon, midnight is my noon
That's when I'm in tune, come find me (come find me)

I've been prayin' and prayin' and prayin'
For this life that I live today (today)
Since a rez boy, there's nothing I'd change
I shed tears of joy, I shed tears of pain

That's peaks and valleys my neechie
(That's peaks and valleys my neechie)
That's peaks and valleys my neechie
(That's peaks and valleys my neechie)

Hey, got lost in my ways and I found my way out
Counted my blessings when they counted me out
I was down for the count and I lost count
Now I'm back on my feet and I'm walking it out
The sage is lit and I'm smudging it out
Look at me now, more grounded than ever while stuck in a cloud
Cedar bow whip as she brushing me down
No doubt in my mind my ancestors are proud (oh, ayy)
My spirit is lifted,
Don't take shit from no one, my life is a gift
I'm thankful for all of this time that I get
To express what I'm feeling I'm feeling legit
Wit my palms to the ceiling we praying for healing
Self-love above all got me fly like an eagle
My vision is pure, I been searching for balance
All we found were these peaks and valleys

I've been prayin' and prayin' and prayin'
For this life that I live today (today)
Since a rez boy, there's nothing I'd change
I shed tears of joy, I shed tears of pain

That's peaks and valleys my neechie
(That's peaks and valleys my neechie)
That's peaks and valleys my neechie
(That's peaks and valleys my neechie)

Yeah, sleepless in Vancity
I'm checkin' in, is you with me?
Yeah, my soul could use some cleansing
Lately I've felt empty (oh)
And now I see it clearly
I feel the spirits near me
I been praying, I hope they hear me

Runaway, that's too easy
Break the cycle, come with me
(Break the cycle come with me)

(Hey, yo, can you turn me up
You a brave, it's time to start acting like one)

I'm a mothafuckin' brave baby
Just like my moms and my papi
I'm a savage baby
Now don't make me catch this body
That's for anybody
Minay verse everybody
I know Creator got me
So who gon' really stop me?

I'm a mothafuckin brave baby

So who go'n really stop me (ow)
