      NVC Journey (Improv Song)

      · Songwriting

      by Aloha Jacqueline

      ❝ You can be free

      You can be free

      You can 

      You can be free

      Once you realize

      That Everyone

      Everyone

      Is only 

      They're only

      They're only 

      Meeting their needs

      Meeting their needs 

      It's only

      A tragedy

      It's only a tragedy because

      Because they're only in habits and strategies 

      They're only doing what they know

      And sometimes 

      And sometimes

      We don't know what do 

      We're scared

      We're frightened

      We're tired

      We long to be safe, 

      We long to be heard, 

      We to long to seen, 

      And we to be loved

      It's only that we might 

      We might not be going about it

      In a way where we can 

      be met, be met

      In what we need... 

      Ohhh

      When we don't how we feel,

      How can we know what need? 

      And how can we know what to ask for? 

      When we don't even know what need?

      So attached to the ways

      We've been living

      So attached to our fears

      Ohh

      So empathy

      So empathy 

      So empathy

      So empathy 

      It's the only way

      If we're tired of doing the same things

      Over and over again

      And hoping 

      We're hoping

      That this time something might change

      But inevitably 

      Inevitably 

      It comes around again

      Inviting, inviting, inviting

      For us to finally feel

      To feel, to see, to hear, to know

      What is going on

      Inside, inside if we understand 

      And feel empathy for

      All that arises

      All that is felt

      All that wants to be seen. 

      To be seen

      To be held

      To be known

      And to felt. 

      We might be able to

      We might be able to

      We might be able to hear

      Someone elses pain

      Someone elses fear

      Someone else whose stuck

      And doeant know what the hell to do

      So we stop

      We pause

      We observe what is here 

      What is now

      Identifying how wr we feel

      Connectes to our needa

      If they met if they're nit

      We can can still feel the beauty

      The beauty of being human 

      We're all so full of needs

      And if we master. 

      And we if we master this 

      We might be to speak 

      To speak our needs

      To speak our values

      To speak what we desire 

      And hold it lovingly

      And holding it lovingly

      Regardless of what someone else says

      What someones else does

      Wht someone else feels 

      Empathy

      Coming back to empathy

      We're all hiding 

      We're all covering

      Covering 

      We've covered

      All the feelings and of the needs

      Can we unwrap? 

      Can we unwrap

      Patiently? 

      Patiently

      Slowly getting curious 

      Of our new way.
