“I Am My Ancestors Wildest Dreams”
Ancestors Wildest Dreams is Alyssa Aparicio’s Debut Single
“I wrote these lyrics after experiencing the loss of my beloved grandfather last year. It is a manifesto to exist and embody that truth.
Writing the first part was a life raft in the midst of deep grieving. About a year later, I revisited these lyrics from a place of further healing and celebration of getting to be the living legacy of those who came before me. I then finished the song and decided to bring it to life.
Releasing a song has been a dream of mine since I was a very young girl. As a kid, I had notebooks full of lyrics and would perform for anyone who would listen. I even went so far as to hold an audition on the playground for my first music video (spoiler alert: it never made it past this stage).
I shut that vision down in a long and painful stage of my life where I did not trust my voice and let fear limit me in my creativity and expression.
In the last few years, on my journey of healing & Pussy Empowerment, I have been reclaiming my voice and the totality of my expression. On this path came the reawakening of my desire to make music. This time, I heeded the call and it has opened an exciting new horizon and channel for my creativity and message.”
I dedicate this to all the women who never got to be who they wanted to be
Te lo juro, I'ma be me.
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams.
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams.
That's why you can't fuck with me (nah)
That's why I be what I be.
That's why I do what I do
That's why you see what you see (you see me?)
Look in the mirror I am proud to be
All of the people who came before me
All the paths they carved painstakingly
All the love they poured into me
All the ways that I am thriving
All the times they were surviving.
Now I hold the torch
Now I make the rules (yes I do)
Now this is the day
Now, what is the way, how?
On their wings I take a step
On their wings I take a step
On their wings I take a step,
Piecemeal it man, spirit does the rest
Every challenge I pass the test (yup)
I am here to do my fucking best (that's right)
I never said better than the rest
My own competition say it from my chest (from my chest)
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams
That's why you can't fuck with me (I'm from the Bronx)
Plant my roots diasporically
Sass, integrity
Sacrifice it wasn't lost on me (nope)
Pen's in my hand, write a new story
Sunshine all over me (yes)
Flip my hair triumphantly (whoo)
Passion burning in me
Believe me, I'm thriving
When I find myself questioning (Uh)
On their wings I take a step
On their wings I take a step
On their wings I take a step,
Free spirited bitch, damn i am so blessed
I always knew I was destined for greatness
Surrender, pleasure, and a lot of patience
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams (Boricua)
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams (Panameña)
That's why you can't fuck with me. (Mexicana)
That's why I be what I be.
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams.
I am my ancestors' wildest dreams. (wild)
That's right you can't fuck with me (don't try it!)
Don't know me yet, ah you'll see
Shake my ass abundantly (juicy)
Flash my breasts, feeling the breeze (mmm)
Between my hips, empowered pussy (rawr)
That's right, just watch me (watch me)
Bad bitch, ya tu sabes
