GIVE ME THE EMPRESS ft MICKY B

from GROW A PLANT (420) by Arky Starch

/

about

Mireille Boudewijns aka "Micky B", is a singer/songwriter and recording artist from Antwerp.

This Turkish/Belgian songstress combines heartical messages and positive vibrations with a touch of militancy.

Her sweet vocals and lyrics are her trademark to the point you can call her a modern day "Griot".

She tells stories as reminders of the past, shares experiences, gives guidance and preaches oneness wherever she goes.

lyrics

We call it healing of the nation
also A point of our frustration
we interfere their medication
don't want no higher meditation
let me take you on an excursion
and show you all the inversion
beware what you do
they're coming for you
you gotta learn to see them through

you see it's totally out of control
they just wanna tell us what to do
and then claim it's for the best of you
you filthy hypocrite now who is fooling who
while you're poisoning all our food
with your sugar and your coffee, them too

Chorus:
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
bless up me Empress Sativa

Verse:
I gotta get this of my chest now
am tired of all the fake arrests now
shipping cocaine like it was paper
while we have to hide a vapor
and all the women you are listing
with all the children who are missing
beware what you do
we're coming for you
you know that we can see through you

you see it's totally out of control
they just wanna tell us what to do
and then claim its for the best of you
you filthy hypocrite now who is fooling who
while you're poisoning all our youths
with your violence and your sodomy too

Chorus:
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
bless up me Empress Sativa
bless up me Empress Sativa
bless up me Empress Sativa

puff puff give
puff puff give
puff puff give

puff puff give
puff puff give
puff puff give

Chorus:
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it

we don't need the green fairy from the absinthe to make us absent
but we need that green Lady that connects us to everything

Chorus:
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
from the start of the "I"
till we return to it
let me breath
give me weed
we've been living with it
bless up me Empress Sativa
bless up me Empress Sativa
bless up me Empress Sativa
bless up me Empress Sativa
