Lyrics
Girl, recognize me as my own
Girl, acknowledge and accept me for who I am
Honour the way I'm kissed by the sun
Show respect for the way I am touched by sunlight
Girl, recognize me as my own
Reiteration: Girl, acknowledge and accept me for who I am
Honour the way I'm kissed by the sun
Reiteration: Show respect for the way I am touched by sunlight
Tell me your stories, and take mine on
Share your stories with me, and I'll share mine with you
No - There is no other
Denial of others' significance: No - There is no other
Girl, think about your questions twice
Caution to think carefully about your inquiries
We're all one after all, inside
Unity: We are all connected, fundamentally the same
I'm made of gold, and silk, and spice
Describing oneself with valuable qualities: gold, silk, and spice
But no, no
Contradiction: No, there is no other
There is no other
Reiteration: Denial of others' significance: There is no other
See me as I see you
Mutual recognition: See me as I see you
Courage in motion
Encouragement for bravery and action: Courage in motion
Spill the oil
Symbolic action: Spill the oil
Welcome to my home
Invitation: Welcome to my home
We're all one after all (one after all)
Unity: We are all connected, fundamentally the same (repeated)
Look to the sky, it's raining flowers on us
Metaphor: Look to the sky, symbolizing beauty and abundance
We're all one after all (one after all)
Unity: We are all connected, fundamentally the same (repeated)
So no, no
Denial of others' significance: So no, there is no other
There is no other
Reiteration: Denial of others' significance: There is no other
Girl recognize me as my own
Reiteration: Girl, acknowledge and accept me for who I am
Honour the way I'm kissed by the sun
Reiteration: Show respect for the way I am touched by sunlight
Tell me your stories, and take mine on
Repeat of line 6: Share your stories with me, and I'll share mine with you
No - There is no other
Denial of others' significance: No - There is no other (repeated)
