Family Earth

Inspired by
"Epa Helmet Mask: Mother of Twins (Iyabeji)" by
The Yoruba People of Nigeria
Late 1800's



We can be so strong
We can be united
We can be so one

Honor and commitment
two words
that could change
this world

Everyone on our planet
is family
we are one

we
have
forgot
that
and have done so
consistently
since we first ventured
out of our caves

The heart of our people
is broken
-together we can mend it

We can be strong
-together
We can be united
-together

Together we are one people
