She is a co-founder of The Taos Peace and Reconciliation Council, which works to heal intergenerational trauma and ethnic division in the northern New Mexico. She is a walker within the Nihigaal Bee Iiná Movement, a 1,000-mile prayer walk through Diné Tah (the Navajo homeland) that is exposing the exploitation of Diné land and people by uranium, coal, oil and gas industries. She is the lead organizer of the Black Hill Unity Concert which gathers native and nonnative musicians to pray for the return of guardianship of the Black Hills to the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota nations. She is the also the founder of Regeneration Festival, an annual celebration of children that occurs in 13 countries around the world every September. Beautiful Navajo Rug dress and jewelry she is wearing proudly! she is Dine and Cheyenne raised in Taos. Just a beautiful person inside and out.
Good morning, would there be rights seeing it's Navajo homeland and be due compensation for anyone digging up resources... like people who have natural gas in the ground. Maybe purchase air rights or the opposite direction of rights. Just a thought to help.
Those were my ancestors in Ireland and Scotland. My heart breaks at the suffering they endured. Shedding light on this is so important. Never again! May women be untied.
Indigenous beautiful people of Mexico, you are loved, valued & appreciated. The warmth of your hearts & culture is known to those whose hearts are open. We are all One in the Unified Woven fabric of our Creator's Reality that remains Supreme over all illusions, confusions & delusions of those who are blinded by the sickness of ego & belief in separation. Now even Physics teaches us about inherent Unity of all Life & all people. Although, we are also all unique like no other, like fingerprints, our Creator expresses His Light of Love uniquely through one of us & yet The Light of Love remains Always & Forever One. So beautiful to hear your heart!❤❤❤
I would just like to say that I am Irish, Scottish and Cherokee. I'm indigenous all the way around. The Irish are indigenous to their land. The Scottish are indigenous to their land in the Cherokee are indigenous to their land. They are the first people's and I haven't got enough blood quantification to prove that I'm Cherokee. But I know that none of us own any of this land. The joke is going to be on us when back to the land we go. We're only here to keep this land for our grandchildren and some of us forgot that
Transcribed for Deaf and hard of hearing: Indigenous people. Shine your light, we are equal. I remember the days when our prayers were illegal. I remember the days when being Indian was lethal. Yeah, we had a rough past but get ready for the sequel. Get ready for the glory, it's come back of our people. Oh yeah. Rise up, all you warriors of love. All you answers to the prayers of our ancestors from above. I can feel it in my heart. Can you feel it in your blood? I can hear the sound of fire calling us to wake up! Wake up! All nations rise! Rise up 'cause now's your time. We don't have to hide anymore 'cause now's the time. All nations rise. Rise up 'cause now's your time. We don't have to hide anymore 'cause now's the time. With forgiveness as my bow and my prayers as my arrows, pull 'em back and let go. I watch 'em fly like sparrows. Have hope. Yeah, have hope! With compassion as my shield and faith down to my marrow I will walk the pollen path even when it gets narrow! Yeah, I resurrect. Yes, you can bet that we seen the single mama raising children on the rez. We seen domestic violence tear apart what we have left. We seen the alcohol take it all and leave us dead. Seen the children take their lives when they can't take the dread anymore. It's a war. Can't take the dread anymore. It's a war. No, we can't take the dread anymore. It's a war. No, we can't take the dread anymore. It's a war. It's a war but we we've seen it all before and now we know we can change it 'cause that's why we were born. We know we are the ones that we have been waiting for. We are the ones Grandma has been praying for. So rise up, all you warriors of love. All you answers to the prayers of our ancestors from above. I can feel it in my heart. Can you feel it in your blood? I can hear the sound of fire calling us to wake up! Wake up! ... They say that history is written by the victors but how can there be a victor when the war isn't over? The battle has only just begun. And creator is sending his very best warriors. And this time, it isn't Indians verses Cowboys. No, this time it is all the beautiful races of humanity together on the same side. And we are fighting to replace our fear with love. And this time bullets, arrows, and cannonballs won't save us. The only weapons that are useful in this battle are the weapons of truth, faith, and compassion.
Ain't it crazy how this can apply for today. Made 7yrs ago, yet, with everything going on rn, it still applies today. I believe it.. we need to stand together as one.
This song, and you Lyla June, are such a beautiful ray of light shining down on us from above. I was mesmerized by your message. And I agree fully. We must become united instead of divided in order to obtain the peace which we all seek. I put a sign in my front yard a few years ago that read, "I love you! Hey! If people can hate for no reason, then I can love". If by chance I ever make it back to New Mexico, perhaps our paths will cross. I would be absolutely honored to meet you. But chances are this old Grandma will never step foot out of Florida again. Be blessed always and thank you for sharing such a beautiful song/words.
My God. That was absolutely brilliant. I'm in tears here. Bravo! This is poetry. Lyla Jane, you are a great songwriter. You're up there with Tracy Chapman and Buffy Saint Marie.
3/4 Hawaiian Native American. We chose Hawaiian Native, not Native American. I guess that is why they exempt us from being considered as indigenous peoples.

Thank You so much! I just lost my only child Kaylah Nicole September 9 2020. Praying for A World Vision of Love & Unity to Heal all brokenness. Bless You. Whoever is reading this I love you so much.
You are so very loved I lost my only daughter September 9th 1999, so I shower the affection and love I have for her on my nieces. I could never replace her but it gives me the strength and hope to keep on walking. The brokenness is not the focus it's the beauty underneath, so you could come out of your shell and shine.
@@whoussisher9265 thank you so much! You are so very loved & specially essential. I just had a beautiful moment showering my new nephew with love & got so many smiles in return. I miss my sweet child every moment of every day, but I know she isn’t suffering anymore. Sending you so much love & blessings from the healing heart of Illinois.
@@whoussisher9265 I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m so glad to hear you have found a way to find joy in life. I’m processing the emotions out of shock, depression & acceptance stage of grief now. It sometimes feels like a part of me is missing & I’m lost. Now I’m trying to figure out what I’m supposed to do with my life now that I’m not a mother anymore.
And that's only natural. The ways of my people say you have one year to mourn then you have to let go. After that you can only shed tears of joy about anyone whose walked on.
This is very powerful medicine! It touched my heart deeply. I could not help but cry and play it several times. I feel this strongly. Many blessings and Love. Thank you for sharing this!

From a white girl that family came from Norway I just want to let you know how much I love American Indians. I am fascinated by y'alls culture and I have two beautiful American Indian pictures in my house that I bought last summer and I just cried when I opened them up because they mean so much to my heart. Love and support from a white Norwegian Texas girl. Remember ...under God's eyes we are all equal and we are all the same. God bless each an every person reading this.
Wow. If this isn’t a joke it is simultaneously both sad and ignorant, nauseatingly patronizing, tone deaf, and reeks of racial arrogance. Do you really think she needs a reminder of the humanity of others from you? She has apparently been listening, is ready to follow, and to lead herself. We are most certainly not all equal in the eyes of God. Your words and your tone suggests that you believe you as a white person are the natural child of God, and that non-whites can be happy to know there is a chance for them too. If that is the case, and I strongly suspect it is, your assessment couldn’t possibly be more wrong. Maybe meditate on what it is to receive true humility and Grace “white Norwegian Texas girl”. Btw are some of your best friends black too? You will have to forgive my intolerance of your perhaps unintentional or subconscious arrogance, but I won’t pretend that it is not woefully apparent that you didn’t so much reach out to express your love for ‘American Indians’ as you did to attempt to convince yourself and others that you, by virtue of your “whiteness”, are somehow superior to all others, and that it is by your tribal grace that “non-whites} have an opportunity to be equal to whites. What a thought. What an ugly notion. “Who are whites to be equal to?” We are NOT all equal in the eyes of God, but each has an equal opportunity to be blessed by God, if each would but pick up their cross and follow.✨🕊✨
@@1strights you're being ridiculous. There was none of that in OP's comment. Guess we know who's the actual racist in here and how much they hate the palefaces.
We live in a dominant culture which ensures we are not equal. While there may be a God who feels differently, he/she/it clearly has left us in our own. It is my belief that what matters most is to work very hard to be a decent human being, to fight against that culture as best as we can and to recognize that in a culture based on inequality, difference inherently matters.
@@1strights Power Truth!! One more thing brothers and sisters , We ain't from "India", No disrespect to our brothers and sisters from "INDIA".. I am a Tlingit and Nisgha warrior north American Native.... Gunalcheesh!! God bless you and yours Amen!
I've been telling my kids you are the answers to the prayers of your ancestors for years, actually most of what she is communicating is in the blood in the ground. We just have to walk on that ground to hear it. Wonderful job!
OHHHHHH…. I am crying and wanting to put this on repeat. So beautifully, put together. I am sharing this… Sleeping Giants no longer. We are here for a reason
Wow... I'm literally at a loss of words right now. Is this a dream? I have to be dreaming because this miraculous piece of ingenious art just sparked an everlasting smile on my face. 🙌🏼☝️😮💔💕💕
I am inspired. Thank you. I walk alongside mothers who have lost their children to the Ministry of Children & Family "services"in British Columbia, Canada. Music can change the direction of heart and soul.
Thank you for this. My cousins and I on my father's side are among the last descendants of Gulf Coast tribes whose names have been lost to the winds of time. I've spent the last several years searching for information about them, but have found very little. My Great Grandfather Eugenio Santana, a kind, strong, and powerful man whose name I am honored to bear, died speaking his native language, and no one knew what he was saying. I carry that with me always, and though most of my blood is of European ancestry, I do all I can to remember and bring back as much of the 15% that is indigenous to this land, because if I and those like me don't, than our ancestors, who persevered through unimaginable pain, suffering, and trauma, will be completely forgotten and erased by the march of Western Civilization. With the strength I have been blessed with by my incredible forebears, I will never let that happen. History will be rewritten, even if I must do it myself. Those who were massacred, enslaved, and abused endlessly shall be given a voice, and the people of the world will hear them. For those who forget their history, are doomed to repeat it.
So powerful. I am only 16% indigenous and have felt such a strong pull towards this part of my heritage. I have never felt like I fit in or was understood. Leaning into this part of my history has helped me connect to a greater understanding of existence
I sent this to my family on Maui, Hawaii, from Orkney, Scotland, & we are sharing it far & wide, so touched, so grateful ...sharing it with the world...Thank you! Tears of 100% agreement, Joy, Love, Faith & Compassion are on my face, and my heart is sensing relief at your beauty in every way. Mahalo..Thank you!
It is time, I to feel it and I am ready my brothers and sisters, stand strong and take back what has been stolen and stand for those of us who have been attacked by those who hate us for who we are. A holy people put on these lands by our creator to care for the land and all creation on it, so our next generation will stand and proudly say I am of the five fingered being Dine’ and still standing. Even though they tried to exterminate us and claim they conquered our people, I rise to what was taken and stand for what is right. My people have suffered at the hands of wicked invaders for long enough, if we are to take back what was taken we must unite and stand together as what we are. Family!!! I am with you 100%. Yes I am woke...
I love this song I wish I could listen to it on Apple Music with the rest of my other favorite indigenous artists like Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Drezus, A Tribe Called Red, Northern Cree Singers and many more. Keep up what you’re doing fam music heals and our people need more healers like you. ❤️
I’m mixed between native and Mexican and my grandma sent me this I told her I wanted to in brace my native culture more and she’s supporting me she’s not native but she supports me a lot 😊
The roots of Mexico are deeply native. The natives there came from the southern part of the US and populated the central and southern regions of Mexico. You are more native than you think. Check out the channel, Ancient Americas.
I love this. I appreciate the ending especially when you say all races of humanity are together on one side, working to replace fear with love, in truth, faith and compassion. Thank you for being inclusive.
Recently came across this song; song at this concert on my mother's birthday and a month before she passed. Her father taught her a great love for Native American people. Although not Native himself, he helped build the freedom school on the Pine Ridge Reservation in SD. My mother was born in Sioux Falls, SD.
That was wonderful!... ...♬ Thank you so much... .. 🎼💙 I am Lakota decent & didn't know till I was 40yrs old, my family was embarrassed. I AM PROUD!!!!... ...🎶❤
Wow... That was such an overwhelming beautiful song... I believe even those without native blood will be changed forever after hearing this... Absolutely necessary!!!
My family buried our traditions and heritage and didn't teach my sisters or I any of our history for some reason, they didn't tell my mom Anything either, except that there is Blackfeet and Cherokee "somewhere in the family", and made it sound like such a dark family secret for some reason, it makes me sad. I'd love to learn EVERYTHING. Not only do I feel like I deserve to know, but my son now deserves to know. I want him to celebrate our people and our traditions proudly!(Which I know in my blood he would definitely do, I see it in his mannerisms and daily attitude, he's a warrior, and it can be a blessing and get him into trouble sometimes! Lol) it's always nice to know where you came from.
This song will carry many generations to brighter days! Thank you Lyla for your beautiful medicine. I would like to dedicate this song to World Unity, Healing, and ALL WARRIORS.. If you've been to hell & back your a warrior. Wear it proudly and let's bring on faith, hope, and 💘
We need shirts! We could each by a shirt with a chosen lyric on it then every month we all wear our across the world. Then those who can't hear her song, can see her truth!!!!
WOW!!! THIS IS POWERFUL!! I can feel this in my heart! ALL NATIONS RISE! Mahalo, and Aloha cousins! Blessings of wise Kapuna be upon you all... HAWAII STANDS WITH YOU!!!
This sent chills down my spine. Finding out I am half Native American this rocks me to my core. We are rising warriors of Love we don't have to hide anymore.
for the true love of rainbow and all it's colors, we've arrived, we come from the great maker of ALL THINGS btw, all will change as your songs/LOVE, has prophesized
I’m not indigenous in this lifetime. My heart is with you all. I love and resonate with the spoken words in this song. I have a Native American mother who comes to me in my meditations. We are all one, when one suffers, we all suffer! ✨🌍✨
Replace the fear with love" have compassion ❤️ beutifull people" so full of spirit,, lotts of love from Ireland, where we have suffered in our history also" keep your good will and faith it's so strong🦅
Lyla your voice is so amazing I listen to this every morning in hopes that we all find peace on earth! The song speaks so much truth we need to stand! I just wish I knew my part completely as times have gotten very hard for me but I still pray and hold the faith! May you stay blessed in your music
@@ametrineambrosia4929 i have spanish,germany n tupi decendence honey,no matter if im brazilian,i just consider myself a native brazilian, we latins are a mestizo people by anyway.
@@ametrineambrosia4929 There is only one energy to stand what happend with all the First Nation people and that is forgiving what happend in the past. Consider you serve the darkness when you hate ( they feed on that), forgive and make way for the energy of Love and Inner Peace. Thàn we will achieve World Peace, let go of your hatred against the past ( and still happening). I know it's difficult, but please give Love a change, where you do good darkness/ evil have no entrance. Tge Whole world as ONE if we stop hating and learn to forgive. 💞🤲✌🌎🌏🌍💞🤲✌🌈🕊
I heard this in Max Igan's The CrowHouse Vlog recently and was so touched by it! I can only dream of hearing Lyla in person, what a gift she is to this world, thank you profoundly for putting words so powerful, rhythmically for what is true in our hearts. Love you sister!
It’s true 🙏 The answers to the prayers of our ancestors is in each of us. And when you know you know and if you don’t know… you KNOW. Believe and it shall be. We are here 🙏
Thank you for your deep and powerful blessing. Tears of hope and love are pouring from my eyes. What a clear and passionate vision. Just the medicine we need.

It sounds like she's preaching and promoting multiculturalism, not indigenous sovereignty
Cool
Feel like I went to school with her when I was younger ...
Be Blessed !
Those were my ancestors in Ireland and Scotland. My heart breaks at the suffering they endured. Shedding light on this is so important. Never again! May women be untied.
This gave me chills!! Mother is awake!
I was so surprised that us Indigenous people of Mexico were represented in this!! I lost my mind when she started singing in spanish 🤩‼️

And what was the life expectancy again? 30?
You can still drink from any lake or river. Should you? No. Or just small quantities.

I am fascinated by y'alls culture and I have two beautiful American Indian pictures in my house that I bought last summer and I just cried when I opened them up because they mean so much to my heart. Love and support from a white Norwegian Texas girl. Remember ...under God's eyes we are all equal and we are all the same. God bless each an every person reading this.
God bless the struggles real girl thank you means alot well wishes from a mexican native indie. Girlie. 1st feminine power k n you're right !
Wow. If this isn’t a joke it is simultaneously both sad and ignorant, nauseatingly patronizing, tone deaf, and reeks of racial arrogance. Do you really think she needs a reminder of the humanity of others from you? She has apparently been listening, is ready to follow, and to lead herself.
We are most certainly not all equal in the eyes of God. Your words and your tone suggests that you believe you as a white person are the natural child of God, and that non-whites can be happy to know there is a chance for them too. If that is the case, and I strongly suspect it is, your assessment couldn’t possibly be more wrong. Maybe meditate on what it is to receive true humility and Grace “white Norwegian Texas girl”. Btw are some of your best friends black too?
You will have to forgive my intolerance of your perhaps unintentional or subconscious arrogance, but I won’t pretend that it is not woefully apparent that you didn’t so much reach out to express your love for ‘American Indians’ as you did to attempt to convince yourself and others that you, by virtue of your “whiteness”, are somehow superior to all others, and that it is by your tribal grace that “non-whites} have an opportunity to be equal to whites. What a thought.
What an ugly notion. “Who are whites to be equal to?”
We are NOT all equal in the eyes of God, but each has an equal opportunity to be blessed by God, if each would but pick up their cross and follow.✨🕊✨
@@1strights you're being ridiculous. There was none of that in OP's comment. Guess we know who's the actual racist in here and how much they hate the palefaces.
We live in a dominant culture which ensures we are not equal. While there may be a God who feels differently, he/she/it clearly has left us in our own. It is my belief that what matters most is to work very hard to be a decent human being, to fight against that culture as best as we can and to recognize that in a culture based on inequality, difference inherently matters.

Truth!!
One more thing brothers and sisters ,
We ain't from "India",
No disrespect to our brothers and sisters from "INDIA"..
I am a Tlingit and Nisgha warrior north American Native....
Gunalcheesh!!
God bless you and yours
Amen!
Absolutely Beautiful Song
I cry at the end of this song Everytime I hear it. So deep. So prophetic. You are amazing. Thank you.
IM CRING TOO
Proud to be native🎉☑️✌️
I've been telling my kids you are the answers to the prayers of your ancestors for years, actually most of what she is communicating is in the blood in the ground. We just have to walk on that ground to hear it. Wonderful job!
Simon carnal! Your Words are words worth speaking/writing or hearing/reading. Not many can claim that truth .
It was the most beautiful thing I have heard in a long time!!!! It's beautiful!!!!
This gave me serious chills
One love
BE THE LIGHT
OHHHHHH…. I am crying and wanting to put this on repeat. So beautifully, put together. I am sharing this… Sleeping Giants no longer. We are here for a reason
Wow... I'm literally at a loss of words right now. Is this a dream? I have to be dreaming because this miraculous piece of ingenious art just sparked an everlasting smile on my face. 🙌🏼☝️😮💔💕💕
Feel
an absolute masterpiece, an amazing message paired with the beautiful style of music. phenomenal execution!
I am inspired. Thank you. I walk alongside mothers who have lost their children to the Ministry of Children & Family "services"in British Columbia, Canada. Music can change the direction of heart and soul.
This is one of the most beautiful things my ears were graced to hear today. THANK YOU!!
Beautiful, Powerful. An Important Message for these Times.
This had me crying first time I heard it. Now can sing along! Much gratitude.
"We are the ones Grandma Dreamed of" oh my ❤❣️❣️❣️
We sing as one.
Brothers + Sisters in love + forgiveness.
Beautiful song. Touches my Spirit.
Thank you Lyla June.
"were the ones grandmas been praying for" that's deep I love this song. I heard it in class I love her voice
You just need to marry me!! Apache-tewa
Thank you for this. My cousins and I on my father's side are among the last descendants of Gulf Coast tribes whose names have been lost to the winds of time. I've spent the last several years searching for information about them, but have found very little. My Great Grandfather Eugenio Santana, a kind, strong, and powerful man whose name I am honored to bear, died speaking his native language, and no one knew what he was saying. I carry that with me always, and though most of my blood is of European ancestry, I do all I can to remember and bring back as much of the 15% that is indigenous to this land, because if I and those like me don't, than our ancestors, who persevered through unimaginable pain, suffering, and trauma, will be completely forgotten and erased by the march of Western Civilization. With the strength I have been blessed with by my incredible forebears, I will never let that happen. History will be rewritten, even if I must do it myself. Those who were massacred, enslaved, and abused endlessly shall be given a voice, and the people of the world will hear them. For those who forget their history, are doomed to repeat it.
So powerful. I am only 16% indigenous and have felt such a strong pull towards this part of my heritage. I have never felt like I fit in or was understood. Leaning into this part of my history has helped me connect to a greater understanding of existence
Yes, Let Love Rise!!! Thank you Lyla for this powerful expression of inspired truth.
I cried cause it speaks from the heart and what I have been feeling for months. Mother Earth needs healing.
Yes she does. ❤️
She will be healed. She will heal herself and us.
Thank you Layla June. I found this today 8/14/2020, and I needed this message today. Brightest of blessings to you.
Magnificent, wish we could all see the world this way. Spreading her words and wisdom. And all it stands for
Am with you ...in my heart and soul my grandmother was Lakota Sioux and Cherokee Nation and I will rise up I can feel it
I sent this to my family on Maui, Hawaii, from Orkney, Scotland, & we are sharing it far & wide, so touched, so grateful ...sharing it with the world...Thank you! Tears of 100% agreement, Joy, Love, Faith & Compassion are on my face, and my heart is sensing relief at your beauty in every way. Mahalo..Thank you!
Scotland could mirror the arguments of Keanu Sai instead of playing the indieref game. mahalo/meas.
Me too, I share it all the time and sing it with my girls every night.
yes U KNOW IT
Beautiful thank you.💛🙏💛☀️🌈🔥💫
It is time, I to feel it and I am ready my brothers and sisters, stand strong and take back what has been stolen and stand for those of us who have been attacked by those who hate us for who we are. A holy people put on these lands by our creator to care for the land and all creation on it, so our next generation will stand and proudly say I am of the five fingered being Dine’ and still standing. Even though they tried to exterminate us and claim they conquered our people, I rise to what was taken and stand for what is right. My people have suffered at the hands of wicked invaders for long enough, if we are to take back what was taken we must unite and stand together as what we are. Family!!! I am with you 100%. Yes I am woke...
Wow! This is awesome!!! Such a tragedy that productions like the superbowl have no halftime acts such as this? Thank you for this amazing creation!
I love this song I wish I could listen to it on Apple Music with the rest of my other favorite indigenous artists like Snotty Nose Rez Kids, Drezus, A Tribe Called Red, Northern Cree Singers and many more. Keep up what you’re doing fam music heals and our people need more healers like you. ❤️
I've just listened to this four times in a row. Thank you for creating and sharing.
"We are the ones grandma has been praying for."
love that line too -- every word flows with inspiration. Thank you for putting these principles to music.
Hit me hard
She's merely letting her little light shine!
@@RBMartin you may to listen again. There isn't any music! But I here it too
I am 3% native American ❤
I just love this song so much! I discovered it during after the 2106 Election and it was so healing for me to just listen to it on repeat!!
I’m mixed between native and Mexican and my grandma sent me this I told her I wanted to in brace my native culture more and she’s supporting me she’s not native but she supports me a lot 😊
The roots of Mexico are deeply native. The natives there came from the southern part of the US and populated the central and southern regions of Mexico. You are more native than you think. Check out the channel, Ancient Americas.
I love this. I appreciate the ending especially when you say all races of humanity are together on one side, working to replace fear with love, in truth, faith and compassion. Thank you for being inclusive.
Not true.look around.the united state and its nazi police have removed us frim ( his ..story )... cherokee people
I needed this!!!!!!!
Beautiful song. Saw it on The Crowhouse. Warriors of the Rainbow, rise up!
Recently came across this song; song at this concert on my mother's birthday and a month before she passed. Her father taught her a great love for Native American people. Although not Native himself, he helped build the freedom school on the Pine Ridge Reservation in SD. My mother was born in Sioux Falls, SD.
Our family listens to this every morning
Thank you
Our hearts are full!
Now's the time!
Your music is very inspiring to me and it makes me happy to know my brothers and sisters live on, strong in their roots.
A'ho
That was wonderful!... ...♬
Thank you so much... .. 🎼💙
I am Lakota decent & didn't know till I was 40yrs old, my family was embarrassed.
I AM PROUD!!!!... ...🎶❤
Hil-le hil-le 👋
Thanks all native Americans who never gave up...I love you so much...
Thanks for this Song...
We need this hard core right now!!! Now is all we have!
We are the answer to our ancestor's prayers! Wado Unelanvhi for sending me back to fight🔥🔥🔥
I'm not native. But as a white woman and a pagan from Norway . I want to say this is powerful and beautiful. Much respect. 🙏❤️
This is a beautiful song, for the days that we are going through right now, blessings from Australia 🇦🇺
Wow... That was such an overwhelming beautiful song...
I believe even those without native blood will be changed forever after hearing this...
Absolutely necessary!!!
This means so much more to me now than it did in '16. Blessings.
Very beautiful singing, by lovely beautiful young ladies ❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️😘🙏
I listen to this every morning... I love the inspiration I feel when I sing this song. Thank You Lila!!!!
I am sharing this with my family and it is absolutely Beautiful! Praying we all rise for Love and Justice.... 💜🌈💜
Amazing as always. Everyone, please share this on your social media. Our people need these messages now more than ever. Much Love Char.
My grandfather was one-hundred-percent Pomo Indian I stand with all my sisters and brothers in this light. We have been given by the most high creator
My family buried our traditions and heritage and didn't teach my sisters or I any of our history for some reason, they didn't tell my mom Anything either, except that there is Blackfeet and Cherokee "somewhere in the family", and made it sound like such a dark family secret for some reason, it makes me sad. I'd love to learn EVERYTHING. Not only do I feel like I deserve to know, but my son now deserves to know. I want him to celebrate our people and our traditions proudly!(Which I know in my blood he would definitely do, I see it in his mannerisms and daily attitude, he's a warrior, and it can be a blessing and get him into trouble sometimes! Lol) it's always nice to know where you came from.
This song will carry many generations to brighter days! Thank you Lyla for your beautiful medicine.
I would like to dedicate this song to World Unity, Healing, and ALL WARRIORS.. If you've been to hell & back your a warrior. Wear it proudly and let's bring on faith, hope, and 💘
We need shirts! We could each by a shirt with a chosen lyric on it then every month we all wear our across the world. Then those who can't hear her song, can see her truth!!!!
WE RISE!!!! Love it sister, just happen to click on this song, and it gave me so many goosebumps! LOVE IT!
Made me cry with joy.
Love and Light from the Heart of Texas.
Love to my sisters. Thank you for showing our native pride that was never shown to me
WOW!!! THIS IS POWERFUL!! I can feel this in my heart! ALL NATIONS RISE! Mahalo, and Aloha cousins! Blessings of wise Kapuna be upon you all... HAWAII STANDS WITH YOU!!!
This sent chills down my spine. Finding out I am half Native American this rocks me to my core. We are rising warriors of Love we don't have to hide anymore.
Every nation all around the globe needs to hear this and RISE UP with peac and love..✌️
for the true love of rainbow and all it's colors, we've arrived, we come from the great maker of ALL THINGS btw, all will change as your songs/LOVE, has prophesized
I’m not indigenous in this lifetime. My heart is with you all. I love and resonate with the spoken words in this song. I have a Native American mother who comes to me in my meditations. We are all one, when one suffers, we all suffer!
✨🌍✨
We are all indigenous humanity. Only those that wish to control make us separate, divide us. Rise up all we are free, indigenous, sovereign!!
Earth is not a Globe.
Our ancestors knew Earth was Flat. If course they didn't go to government controlled schools that indoctrinated them!!!
we are all indigenous of somewhere sacred...
We are luminous beings in a luminous world. -Carlos Castaneda
Creation is sacred. And it is one. Humans have become blind to it.
Never imagined someone would write a song without the background music! I love it!!! I wanted you do that but wasn’t sure it would hit! God bless
It's called acapella. And it is used in a wide assortment of genres.
Replace the fear with love" have compassion ❤️ beutifull people" so full of spirit,, lotts of love from Ireland, where we have suffered in our history also" keep your good will and faith it's so strong🦅
Lyla your voice is so amazing I listen to this every morning in hopes that we all find peace on earth! The song speaks so much truth we need to stand! I just wish I knew my part completely as times have gotten very hard for me but I still pray and hold the faith! May you stay blessed in your music
amen, sister.
beautifully done. 💕
"With Forgiveness as my bow and Prayers as my arrows"...😁YES
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️LYLA JUNE❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
God Bless Her❤️
My heart is open so wide after listening to this. Truth. Faith. Compassion.
🙏 Blessings
Such an amazing performance and discussion with this soulful poet, musician, and artist of power. Thank you for the love @ Catawba College.
2:50-amazing,she is talking spanish!as a latin n native brazilian i just feel myself very honorified!
As a MexicanAmerican I'm living this.
It's using the colonizers language against them. Are you horrified she wasn't singing Portuguese?
@@ametrineambrosia4929 i have spanish,germany n tupi decendence honey,no matter if im brazilian,i just consider myself a native brazilian, we latins are a mestizo people by anyway.
@@hugofarias9150 you have every right to feel rage and I stand with you.
@@ametrineambrosia4929 There is only one energy to stand what happend with all the First Nation people and that is forgiving what happend in the past. Consider you serve the darkness when you hate ( they feed on that), forgive and make way for the energy of Love and Inner Peace. Thàn we will achieve World Peace, let go of your hatred against the past ( and still happening). I know it's difficult, but please give Love a change, where you do good darkness/ evil have no entrance. Tge Whole world as ONE if we stop hating and learn to forgive.
💞🤲✌🌎🌏🌍💞🤲✌🌈🕊
"BRAVO" there is nothing else to say!
I heard this in Max Igan's The CrowHouse Vlog recently and was so touched by it! I can only dream of hearing Lyla in person, what a gift she is to this world, thank you profoundly for putting words so powerful, rhythmically for what is true in our hearts. Love you sister!
It’s true 🙏
The answers to the prayers of our ancestors is in each of us. And when you know you know and if you don’t know… you KNOW. Believe and it shall be. We are here 🙏
Thank you for your deep and powerful blessing. Tears of hope and love are pouring from my eyes. What a clear and passionate vision. Just the medicine we need.
I just discovered this sister. She is powerful in her message. Thank you for your spirit.
This was 5 years ago…. Couldn’t be more fitting for this time. Thank you sister
Thank You this song My Higher Self lead me here many blessings 😘🪶
