The music in the dramatic reading of “I AM…” features up beat music from the Jazz Music Collection, song titled “Jazz Relaxation”
I AM
Roots piercing deep through the dirt as the ocean has no floor
Meditate to elevate in the never ending race
like the always growing evergreens
Absorbing the sun as it is the food giv’in nutrients to my soul
Leaves glistening under the moonlight,
still shining through its darkness
As my blood will multiply for we will unify
Soon our voices will be one to recognize
Passion sets as the rain comes shooting down
Intended to dampen me, loosen my stance, and make me fall
But I am a black women
And I am still standing tall with it letting your storms make me feel small.
