about

Young Shoots is track 1 off Ashera's second album, Rob the Rich.

lyrics

We’re young shoots
growing out of ancient roots
Born out of the ashes,
the ashes of our mother’s bones
Tempered in fire
Baptized in pepper spray
Cleansed by smokey tear gas
What will our children say?

We’re fresh young shoots
growing out of ancient roots
Nurtured in the ashes,
the ashes of ancestral bones
Forged from resistance
Bathed in pepper spray
Singed and scorched by flash grenades
Will our kids be proud of us?

We’re fresh young shoots
growing out of ancient roots
Throwing off the shackles
of our father’s white supremacy
Dismantling the prison walls
of slavery and gender fallacy
Stomping out fascists
Can we leave a better world behind?
