Chariot (feat. Coconino Dream) Video (MV)

You loved me when I gave you a chariot and castle
But not when I gave you a sword of truth and a flame to see

You loved me when I took you into my world
But not when I politely asked you to leave

You loved me when I was praising you to the people
But not when I asked you to respect my word

You loved me until it was time to pay your dues
Then I became your mother, your father, ex-lover, and abuser too

You loved me until you hated me
Shamed and berated me
As the fear of your own power
Made you want to diminish mine

Because you forgot that there was more than enough fire
To light up the path toward the freedom you so desperately desire

So you made me the reckless driver of your own destiny
Forgetting it is you who holds the wheel of who you will be

I became a painted portrait of all that you have not healed
Because you have never learned
To love yourself enough to see love revealed

You refused your own blooming
To maintain the victim's stance
In your own story
Of love's wild dance

But I hope you find the chariot that will hold your raging heart
I hope you can build a castle that will protect your brilliant star
And I hope that you can love yourself enough to see
That I was only showing you
Who you wanted to be
