Unleashing the Power Within: Exploring "It's Your Birthright" by Sound Alchemist Julie Jules Smoot

Woman with Arms open wide

It's Your Birthright

In the quiet corners of a morning just awake,

When the sun spills its golden light upon the earth,

Remember, it’s your birthright,

To breathe in the crisp air,

To feel the gentle brush of the wind,

Whispering secrets of the day yet to unfold. 

Feel the rise and fall of your chest,

A rhythm steady as the earth spins,

Each breath a testament,

A promise made in the fabric of being,

You are here, woven into the grand tapestry,

Each thread vibrant, alive, indispensable. 

From the nurturing embrace of the womb,

To the radiant moment when the world first kissed your skin,

You cried for life,

For love and for light,

It’s your birthright, dear one,

To claim this world as your own. 

The mountains stand tall, their peaks kissed by clouds,

Guardians of dreams, silent witnesses to your journey,

They too knew the struggle, the ascent of souls,

It’s your birthright to ascend,

To climb the rugged paths,

To scrape your knees and brush off the dust,

Each stumble a lesson, each scar a badge of honor. 

In forests echoing with ancient secrets,

Amidst the rustling leaves, hear the voices of your ancestors,

They call to you, united in a symphony of unity,

To know that the roots beneath your feet are deep,

Anchoring you to a lineage rich with stories,

It’s your birthright to understand where you come from. 

The rivers flow, a relentless current of time,

They carve through stone, learn the geography of endurance,

They teach you that the path may meander,

But still, it leads to the ocean you seek,

It’s your birthright to be fluid,

To bend like the willow yet stand like the oak,

To know that change is the only constant. 

In the embrace of friends, laughter erupts,

Sound waves ripple out, carrying joy,

Each moment frozen in time, a treasure to hold,

It’s your birthright to have companionship,

To share the weight of silence and the warmth of smiles,

To cherish those who walk beside you, hand in hand. 

The palette of life bursts with colors,

Each hue a reflection of your emotions,

From the fiery red of passion to the azure calm of peace,

It’s your birthright to feel deeply,

To dive into the depths of happiness and sorrow,

To understand that each emotion is a stepping stone,

A guide through the wilderness of your own heart. 

In cities alive with rhythm and pace,

Amidst the cacophony of dreams chasing the stars,

You’ll find your place, a melody unique to you,

It’s your birthright to dream audaciously,

To envision mountains moved, oceans crossed,

To know that every dreamer is a pioneer in their own right. 

As night falls, and the cosmos unfurls,

The stars become your companions,

Guiding you through the velvet black,

It’s your birthright to reach for them,

To grasp at the infinite, to wonder at the mysteries,

To remember that the universe is vast, yet you matter immensely. 

In the quiet stillness of introspection,

Find the sanctuary within yourself,

Where thoughts intertwine with your essence,

It’s your birthright to seek self-knowledge,

To explore the landscapes of your mind,

To embrace the shadows and illuminate the light within. 

You are a vessel of hope, the keeper of dreams,

Each heartbeat echoes the stories yet to be told,

It’s your birthright to write your own narrative,

To stand on the pages of history,

With ink that sings of resilience and courage. 

As seasons dance through their cycles,

You’ll witness change in its transformative grace,

With autumn’s fiery farewell, winter’s silent slumber,

And spring’s rebirth bursting forth with life,

It’s your birthright to evolve,

To understand the beauty in exit and entrance,

In endings stitched with the thread of beginnings. 

Plant your feet firmly on the earth,

Let the soil seep into your spirit,

Grounded, remember your power,

It’s your birthright to advocate for yourself,

To raise your voice in the chorus of change,

To uplift others, sharing the load of this journey. 

In the halls of education, knowledge awaits,

An endless expanse of wisdom, a treasure chest,

To learn, to question, to grow into your fullness,

It’s your birthright to educate the mind,

To seek answers to the universe's deepest questions,

To bask in enlightenment’s warm embrace. 

When adversity strikes, as it often does,

Let it be the forge that tempers your spirit,

Forge resilience in the fires of challenge,

It’s your birthright to rise,

To turn pain into purpose,

To craft beauty from chaos,

To emerge anew, transformed and tenacious. 

In your community, the heartbeat of humanity,

Where connections are forged in shared experience,

It’s your birthright to participate,

To lend your voice, to offer a hand,

To weave the fabric of belonging with compassion,

To nourish the roots of understanding and empathy. 

Let every sunrise remind you,

Of beginnings unspoiled and fresh with promise,

And that every sunset holds solace,

It’s your birthright to live fully,

To savor each moment like a piece of art,

To find joy in the mundane and magic in the everyday. 

As you trailblaze through life,

Remember the dreams shared in whispered tones,

The hopes carried in the hearts of those who love you,

It’s your birthright to honor them,

To carry their legacy within your soul,

To grow beyond their wildest imaginations. 

In the quietness of gratitude, find peace,

Thank the universe for this gift of existence,

For the love that surrounds you,

For the beauty that captivates you,

It’s your birthright to appreciate,

To nourish your spirit in moments of stillness,

To bring forth gratitude like a harvest after toil. 

So dance, dear heart, dance through your days,

Let the music of your life play eternally,

For in every step, every leap,

It’s your birthright to be unapologetically you,

To celebrate your quirks, your truths,

To revel in the splendid individuality that is your essence. 

In the garden of potential, tend to yourself,

Water your dreams, prune your doubts,

Nurture your aspirations with love and care,

It’s your birthright to flourish,

To blossom into the person you are meant to be,

A unique flower in the vast field of existence,

An irreplaceable piece of the puzzle that holds the world together. 

As you stand at the crossroads of choice,

Reflect on the path that lies before you,

With courage, take the road less traveled,

It’s your birthright to carve your own destiny,

To be the architect of your future,

To build bridges where others may see walls,

To leave a legacy of hope for those who will follow. 

So let not the fears, the doubts, the shadows,

Diminish the light that is inherently yours,

Stand tall with the strength of knowing,

That it’s your birthright to shine,

To illuminate the spaces you inhabit,

To inspire others to uncover their own light. 

Embrace the journey, for it is ever-evolving,

A story still being written, moment by moment,

Turn the page with expectancy, with zeal,

It’s your birthright to unfold,

To discover the layers of yourself and the world,

To embrace every chapter with an open heart,

For in each breath you take, in each choice you make,

Remind yourself—this life is yours,

And it is, unequivocally, your birthright.
