about

I wrote this song from the experience of giving birth to our son. Birthing for me was a sublime participation in mother nature’s ingenious design for creating and protecting life. My mind and body worked in a unison, allowing me to relax as I was carried on the journey of life and filling me with confidence in my capacity to endure.

Birthing also taught me that pain is an inherent part of a major transformation. Before giving birth, pain to me was something to avoid, a signal to retract from whatever I was doing. While birthing my baby and simultaneously a new version of myself, I had to recode my relationship to pain. To surrender, participate, even welcome pain, ride the current wave, breathe before the next wave hits and most of all just be, be present.

Our current world is filled with much pain and mourning, forcing us to reinvent how we take care of ourselves and others. Filled with confidence in nature’s coherent design and in our human capacity to endure, I hope this song can bring a reassurance that YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

When you purchase the song, you will receive a sticker from freshly made series “This Too Shall Pass”.

lyrics

Part 1
My mind and my body
dancing
Arm in arm

My body and my mind
Hurting
Arm in arm

My mind and my body
In this pain
I am not lost

My body and my mind
In this pain
evaporate

Má mysle, mé tělo
Tančí v obětí

Mé tělo, má mysle,
Bolí si v náručí

Má mysle, mé tělo
drží mě nad vodou

Mé tělo, má mysle,
Bolestí mě utápí

Part 2
I’m only focused on my breath
Guide me through the next gate

Prodýchávám se dalším stahem
Prosím nes mě blíž

I am engulfed in my breath
letting go to the flood

Part 3 ‘im not alone’
Nenene nejsem sama 4x

You are not alone
I'm not alone

Part 4
I’m only focused on my breath
Guide me through the next gate

Prodýchávám se dalším stahem
Prosím nes mě blíž


Part 5
1
Slipping out of both
My mind and my body
2
Collapsed in his strong arms
My body and my mind
3
Ready for your descent
Unleash all the pain
4
Our bodies must now separate
Oh Its imminent
5
You are me ~ forever ~
I am you ~ forever ~
6
In your father’s arms
we become
perfect two

Outro
Born perfect
Us two
Born perfect
Born Us two
