Feeling heavily drawn to explore other stories from around the world Isadoré stumbled across ‘Raven’; by Skaay a poet and storyteller of the Haida people from Ttanuu. His stories of Haida mythology have survived, and one story of the Raven struck a chord. Regarded as a magical creature responsible for creating our world, the Raven also has a dark side who makes his unsuspecting moves by shapeshifting, stealing and causing chaos around him.
lyrics
Raven
Raven, I see prowling that sky
Didn’t anybody tell you there’s no place to land that high
And i know you see me in my darkest hour
Didn’t anybody tell you its so rude to laugh out loud
Here I am open to mock
Here I am for your judgment
You gotta be kinder and don’t grip tighter
Doesn’t look good in front of me
You want closer I want closure
Is this love or is this fear
Cause your eyes don’t read too clear
Find your anchor come back down
Won’t you push your mind to places bring you back to the ground
And the world may never share your view
Be aware you may meet what you dare to come through
Here I am open to mock
Here I am for your judgment
You gotta be kinder and don’t grip tighter
Doesn’t look good in front of me
You want closer I want closure
Is this love or is this fear
Cause your eyes don’t read too clear
This is why we’re suffering
Why we’re suffering
Is this love or is this fear
Cause your eyes don’t read too clear
