Wild Flower" Spoken Word Adaptation We each start with a name, A breath— Throwing up sand, Digging holes With our own two hands, Till they’re deep enough To jump in. NAH— That ain’t the life I’m living. We’re not just basic existence, But we need basic necessities To exist in. Claim us. Stop resisting— I ain’t no cop. I’m your sibling. Same Earth, Same pain, Same womb of wind. Let’s uncover the wounds. Let’s bloom. There’s no real race to the top. Life’s a journey— Mine’s still going. One day it’ll stop. But not my mark. That stays. That compass I found? It guides my days. Knowing where I’m headed Is part of knowing at all. I feel accomplished Just by knowing— That you are safe. That you will eat. That you are loved. And I am, too. Knowing is power. So get on your feet. Each phase I’ve lived Was its own life. And yeah— I look back sometimes. Beat myself up. Wish I could rewind. But no need to worry. Let them worry for you. I’ve killed brain cells twice On what I can’t undo. I’m not crying till I know the facts Of my life. Not worrying till I understand Every second Of why I’m even here, man. Let’s reflect Our purpose. Knowing who you are. Knowing you are safe. Knowing you will eat. Knowing you are loved. Knowing is power. Tomorrow, I’ll be better than now. Today, I’ll find something To be proud of. Right now, I sit with the Now. Yeah, I’ve made mistakes. Each one took a part Of my place. Parts of my smile. Parts of my child. The innocence? It’s been gone for a while. But I’m not gone. I’m just Many things. I grew up With wind, With rain, With fire— I am a Wild Flower.
