Scintillating rhythms
Emotional prisms
Joy envisioned
Our people we listen
We shake off the drama
Transcending bad blood
You give voice to our pain
Unleashing a psychic flood
Epic poetry in pop disguise
Karmic truth before my eyes
Embodied joy magnified
Emotional resonance deep inside
Your melodies transcendent
Rooting us in the present
Teaching emotional lessons
Asking potent questions
You are a high-heeled feminist
Branded by couture
Dreaming of empowerment
Dreaming of a new world
I want to convince you to be an anarchist
To be an agent of liberation
You are the apogee of pop
You are collective salvation
You feel collective anguish
Knowing all too well
Harmonies manifest
Casting your infectious spell
We are the new romantics
Heartbreak our national anthem
Our minds are expanding
Our spirits grow ecstatic
You sing with such honesty
Such pulsating vulnerability
You are the apogee of pop
A voice of cultural prophecy
