jewel - becoming lyrics

listen, heart
listen close-listen
2 the melancholy
melody of your own voice
i am weary of my own dreaming
i am tired of waiting
so this time, i'm leaping

[chorus]

i reach-beyond myself 2 see
what i find, beyond my mind, there is no time
in this place beyond my sight
my heart knows what is not yet seen
i'm witnessing my own becoming

lash myself 2 the
mantle of my desire-i will
turn from its temptations
but the wanting takes me higher

i am hurting
oh, i am not yet born
i am the mother and the father
of what is not yet known
darkness surrounds me
i scratch, i struggle, i breathe

[chorus]
