Funk, Fire, and Friction

FUNK, FIRE, AND FRICTION
Sarah Nutting

Take the Funk and the Fire and Friction
Transform it all in me
I am my own magician
Making magic with my heartbeat
I see beauty all around me
I am blessed with all of this
I know pain and I know suffering
Human I am

Refrain:
I'm lovin' this life, lovin' this life as it is 
Lovin' this life, lovin' this life as it is
I'm lovin' this life, lovin' this life as it is 
Receive the fullness, give what's mine to give
Receive the fullness, give what's mine to give

Breathe me open, I am open
Season me with time
Pure devotion moves through me
A heart present and kind
And one day at a time is all that I can live
I'm learnin' as I go, growin' each moment

[Refrain]

I will move with my own conviction
Let spirit take my hands
I'm on an interstellar mission
To love who I am
So let the Funk, the Funk come find me
In all my resistance
I will not turn away
No, I will get down and dance

[Refrain]

Take the Funk and the Fire and Friction
Transform it all in me
I am my own magician
Making magic with my heartbeat . . .
