Manifesto (Bewe Effect)

We stand for many things

We have the power to stand

We have the power of sound

We have the power of electricity

We have the power of medicine

The medicine

The antidote

The prescription

The future vision

We have the vision that comes from within

The power, through the Creator and the Universe

The tuning fork that's already been given to us from birth

The innate wisdom

We stand for that wisdom

We stand strong for that wisdom

We are willing to fight for that wisdom

That has already been given to us

What we already know, what we already feel inside of ourselves

We are warriors in this sound

In our strength

In our ancestry

We come from vast people

Ancient people

People that have been in this land and all land for many years

That represent the innate wisdom

The strength of the Creator

The strength of the Earth

The strength of the Universe

We take these tools and we use these tools to present

Music

Message

Power

Wisdom

And all the beautiful things that the Creator has already given to us

We will fight for that

Because it is our right

It is our right to represent our music

It is our right to represent where we come from

It is our right to stand firm, stand strong

And to walk tall

It is our right to elevate ourselves everyday

With our own medicine and our own strength

We come forth in this Earth to bring message

That is our life's work

It's undeniable and sometimes, to some people, unbelievable

And for some, they fear

They fear the things that they don't see in themselves

And that's okay, because we all have to start somewhere

But the strength and power of the Creator

And the medicine that has an ancient voice

Is stronger beyond the flesh, beyond the years

It is timeless

And time has no timing

We move forward

Blazing trails for our children

Our sons and daughters of the Earth

The message

The message is in the music

The message is in the sound

The prescription is in the Earth

The prescription inside

I represent the people

People that have come before me

I represent my people

I represent my brother

I represent my sister

I represent all the sons and daughters of the Earth

That I hear stand forward and express themselves

In the magnitude and the power of the Creator that was given to us from birth

I represent my people

I represent all the things that I come from

The music that was played for me

The music that was played for me by my mother and my father in my living room

In our basements

In our backyards

In our cities

In our dwellings

The music that has been a part of the fabric of the soul

Of who we are

Our trials and tribulations

Our crying

Our slavery

Slavery of external and slavery within

The trials and tribulations of life

The determination to look for something better

Soul music

Soul music as it is

Just that, music of the soul

The soul crying out

The soul telling the story

The blues of the people

I represent these things

These things are very sacred to me

These things are very sacred to my brothers and my sisters

As they should be sacred to you

Hold fast, hold tight in the stronghold

I represent the city beat

I represent the pulse of the street

I represent all the people that have come before me bringing the message

Be it turntable

Be it drum

Be it voice

Be it whatever medium or whatever tool they had at the time

That they'd use innovatively to express themselves to set the pace, the direction

I represent the vinyl

I represent the tape

I represent all things that are authentic and real in this world

The analog

The strength

The feelings

The transference of energy between man-woman-woman-man-child

Creative energy

Power felt

Feelings

Strength inside

We represent the people

We represent the strength

We represent the people that don't have the strength

We represent the people that don't have a voice

We represent the ancient voice

The voice that resounds past

And present

And into the future

Ask yourself

What do you represent?

What do you present?

When you're done asking yourself these questions, what is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?

What is your prescription?
