CincySarah Accidentally landed on Danielle's video for Some of Us Are Brave on YouTube and have been listening to everything I can find on a loop ever since. Voice of a generation. Favorite track: Some Of Us Are Brave.

anixon74 I listen to these 3 songs every morning while doing a barefoot-in-the-dirt Wonder Woman stance facing the sun. There's some science behind doing the grounding/sun-gazing thing for improved energy and sleep. Adding the power pose and Danielle Ponder music was my own idea.

These songs are just perfect - vocals, lyrics, groove. Looking forward to whatever Ms Ponder graces us with next. Favorite track: So Long.

If the sky were to fall I’d be the first to call Some of us are brave Who’s gonna feel my pain Who’s gonna say my name Ain't no choice but to be brave Peace and love to the ones who give praise Take a bow as the sun hits the face See me now, golden hour And to those who fear leads them to hate What a pity to be locked in a place You see me now I’ll show you how I’ll show you how I’ll show you how I’ll show you how I’ll show you how Peace and love to the ones who give praise Take a bow as the light hits the face See me now, I‘m loud and proud And to those who fear leads them to hate What a pity to be locked in that place, I know You see me though Cause the breeze don’t blow cause you want it And the sun gon’ shine regardless I'm here to stay I'm here to stay All we want is to be ourselves And shine our light with no problems We don't want problems I do believe that the power in me Frightens you, that's your problem That's your problem I say the darker the berry, the sweeter the fruit The kinkier the hair the deeper the roots Bow down when the queendom comes Take note when we speak our tongues Darker the berry the sweeter the fruit Give her her crown when she walks in the room We are the first ones We are light of the sun All we want is to be ourselves And shine our light with no problems We don't want problems I do believe that the power in me Frightens you, that's your problem That's your problem Black like the earth to the world we gave birth Hair to the sky so much cool in our stride I’ll show you how I’ll show you how

I was the giver of unconditional love You were the taker and you couldn’t get enough Capture me with your spell My cup runneth over might as well I've been a fool for so long Hard to know what's right baby and what is wrong I guess that sometimes a broken heart, it’s the only way out (it’s the only way out) I guess that sometimes a broken heart is the only way out (it’s the only way out) My poor heart can you forgive me I can’t seem to figure it out I always give a little more than I got I always get a little less than I want, oh no Well I know you got to go through it to get through it So let me cry my tears, sorrow take my hand Ain't no use in loving him, if I ain't loving me That’s for sure, for sure I guess that sometimes a broken heart, it’s the only way out (it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out) I guess that sometimes a broken heart is the only way out (it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out) Oh, I, oh, my poor broken heart is the only way out (it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out) I guess that sometimes my poor broken heart is the only way out (it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out) I guess that sometimes a broken heart, it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out I guess that sometimes a broken heart, it’s the only way out, it’s the only way out

So Long 02:23
I feel it when the sun don't shine hold my head and I clear my mind to save me Im gonna save me I won't hide no I wont play small I stay grounded I can never fall you wont shake me You'll never shake me and I don't care what people say ill do it my way So Long all my fears I'm ready for the day if I lose some then I lost them What more can I say I know there's a darker side the ones that only feed their pride Their aching oh their aching I long for a higher plane Don't forget my mama gave me my name you don't make me Nah you don't make And I when I see that rising sun I know my time has finally come So Long all my fears Im ready for the day if I lose some then I lost them What more can I say
