Belong to love
Please don’t bury us unless we’re seeds
Learn to forgive
You know very well it’s not easy
It’s so simple to read without living its meaning
Breathe, slow down, stand for something if not anything
Breathe, slow down, we could get closer without the yearning
Please believe me when I say
Someday, it’ll be ok
Please believe me when I say
That I know, that I know, we will get over it, only if we wanna
That I know, that I know, we will get over, only if we wanna
Please believe me when I say
Someday, it’ll be ok
Who are they when they meet?
Stone or lavender
Before the word is ever uttered
Was your leap deeper?
Show her clover and wildflowers when the soul is tired and needing
Do not grieve the idle time
Or all the moments that are ever leaving
Take me far away from myself
Rest, don’t rest like everyone else
I don’t wanna be small, I wanna be full of life
We can weave all things together and be alright
Please believe me when I say
That I know, that I know we will get over only if we wanna
Please believe me when I say
Someday, it’ll be ok

[@Phyligree]

realizing hiatus could make a meannnnnnnnn movie score if they were ever approached to do that

[@calisouthqueen]

They really could!

[@TymeishaShanee]

They absolutely could & should!!! It’s so needed.

[@floridaflamingogirl3119]

Imagine a fight scene with an instrumental like the one from "Atari." Ooohhh man.

[@keatonriha6079]

When Nai sings "I don't want to be small, I want to be full of life" I just lose it. What a beautiful song for a hurting, healing world. Thank you all ❤ 🌎

[@MrJM540]

It'll get better only if we wannaaa :)

[@feliciahill5161]

I agree. That part made me cry and heal.

[@delorislamarr7426]

Just. Beautiful 🖤🖤🖤

[@tomasojeda2525]

this is definitely a grammy song

[@thulisagrootboom2346]

Grammy's too dumb to realise that

[@geoffstockton]

@@thulisagrootboom2346 If they can recognize Jacob Collier 4 times, they aren't too stupid to recognize this at all. Have hope, brother.

[@Darkneo7]

Grammy is trash compared to the greatness of Koiyote

[@manit9226]

Hell yeah!! the album got a freaking nomination!!!

[@sunzu3751]

Such a crushing song to know that she wrote this in the midst of facing her mortality while dealing with breast cancer. Tear jerker fa sho. Absolutely beautiful song

[@np5500]

This speaks to everyone going through something: “someday it’ll be ok” - just beautiful.

[@TymeishaShanee]

ABSOLUTELY!!!!

[@ratbastard6293]

Nai has such a soulful voice and this song is a perfect example of that

[@ashleyyoung796]

She sounded more beautiful like Mary J. Blige and all the other soul singers.😍

[@ericsiegel010]

Pentatonic impressionist vibes like Debussy’s “Girl with the Flaxen Hair”. This song brought me straight to tears on the first listen

[@evanpragliola4947]

You can hear all of Nai’s influences from prince , to Aaliyah in this song. It’s so beautiful

[@gotjuice9]

I'm picking up very strong Mary vibes on this one

[@ZZMilan1234]

Even though the intention isn’t probably religious, this makes me feel close to God

[@seanscott2063]

Expanding & growing beyond "building a ladder..."

[@lauramarkovic5307]

please, not going beyond, they both stand in their own right. building a ladder is such a beautiful song, for me she touched her own sky.

[@ceemogreen2246]

Nai Palm is channeling some mid-to-late 90’s Mary J Blige in some moments throughout this masterpiece.

[@gotjuice9]

You hear it.

[@Foxynaut888]

If this song brought a tear to your eye, Nai Palm's solo single "homebody" will make you weep

[@bengreenwood1734]

Definitely the most powerful song from the album. Felt like something different to what they've done before too. Loved it so much. Such an amazing bunch of people.

[@Reshae]

Very different, but much welcomed.

[@poetrywalker7495]

Every second of this is pure joy

[@ThePremiseSC]

A song is amazing when you don’t have to pay attention to the lyrics or production even though it’s stellar in both aspects. The melody just gives you the feels.

[@Wadosan]

This song is so… cathartic. This track differs from the rest of the album in that there’s no strange effects or heavy layers, it’s just Nai, a Piano, and later some strings. Every other track was superficial, taking us on this wild adventure of different ideas and soundscapes only to show us what this is all really about. It’s like finding a friend, learning everything you thought you could know about them only to discover their deep internal struggles. It makes me cry now, but someday, it will be okay.

[@leslielani1980]

Beautiful interpretation.

[@wendydixon5444]

The strings weep for me. I dont have any more tears left.

[@4nnunaki]

This hit home. Damn,I miss my parents. This is timeless,thank you much.

[@willhicks6864]

Who else is here cause they don’t want to be small and they want to be full of life?

[@avaspencer7368]

Being here when there's so few likes and comments isn't a flex, it's just nice to be here with a small community of people in the early hours of the morning appreciating magic.

[@alfiemckenzie7064]

Ok I’ll put it out there, I went through a bunch of shit the last couple of months, break up etc. And I almost forgot I pre ordered the vinyl for Mood Valiant. When it came I was in bits, the postman gave me a very concerned look. When this track came on I cried my eyes out, and afterwards I felt like I turned a corner. So thank you, again, Nai and the boys.

[@niadd2036]

This song was beautiful. So stripped back and it felt like a gospel. Nai's powerful but gentle voice and Simon's authority over the keys took me to church and brought me to tears. I love you all Hiatus Kaiyote

[@AllieMoreau]

wow, I'm weeping tears that I didn't realize how desperately I needed to shed. I love your music so much, thank you for this.

[@blueeye6545]

This is the first song that has made me cry from its sheer beauty. Thank you so much. I love y’all.

[@trumpetjered]

That chromatic line in the strings at 4:29! Well done.

[@crystalyensko6992]

I love that as well

[@silverfield6117]

This song is so very likely to be inspired by Nai's fight against breast cancer. I think she really put her heart into it.

[@wonsdorung8822]

This song and "When the Knife" on her solo album for sure

[@Y.fm-radio]

The strings from 3:35-3:48 have me welling up with tears, then the “please believe” me changes it up quickly enough to keep me from bawling 😭😭😭

[@teimlessmedia4373]

The song i played a million times when my grandma passed. Tear up everytime this is one of the most beautiful songs on the album and definitely top three they've ever done for me personally. I know the rest of the band is missing...but DAMN

[@eachauraoruh7745]

One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard ꨄ love you all so much

[@OfficialDennis]

my jaw was on the floor hearing this for the first time, the strings mixed with the vocal performance just has such an overwhelming amount of emotion attached to it

[@lamikiminach9503]

YUP WE FOUND THE BEST SONG YALL. This one hits different

[@anaconlan2895]

cant even explain how good you guys are

[@jessicamacfarlane6226]

My mum didn't want this song at her funeral, so I didn't include it, but I like it. I play it for me.

[@schulu28]

saw this live in Brookyln - a dream of MANY years come true!!!! Cried so many times during the show and am crying now listening to this again. Thank you so much Hiatus Kaiyote for creating such creative inspiring beautiful and groovy music

[@susana3618]

i’m simply speachless, this one touched my soul

[@saben47]

Thank you for creating music for us, the empaths of the world that feel everything, music that heals, music with purpose, music that most won't understand but, music that is made for those that do understand ❤ Thank you

[@MrsFKS]

I listen to this and think of my beautiful friend Saorla who passed away from cancer. It makes me cry and gives me hope in equal measure. RIP angel

[@Youngphyconaut]

This is definitely my favorite song off this album. So beautiful and it makes me wanna cry you guys did an amazing job

[@lesanale]

"Please believe me when i say, someday it will be okay"....."Please dont bury us unless we are seeds" Nai's voice is something iv never heard before, so song invokes deep emotions.

[@NinaBrewton]

The WEEPING and worshiping I've experienced since I first herd this song. This touches my heart SO VERY DEEPLY...My God...This entire album...

[@makusgast5191]

This song somehow touches a part inside of me I thought I had lost

[@HankusMaximus]

this song got me sobbing. wife came back from the grocery store like WTF just happened?!

[@ashleyyoung796]

Lol.😆 It's okay to cry and to let your wife know about what went on at home with the song.😊

[@rodricdj9300]

In an album full of gems, with their intricate sound, exposing the skill, traits and individual expression of each member of @hiatuskaiyote there’s this pearl so simple and yet so complex, a soothing ballad that feels like Nai wants to heal the cosmos right there from the recording booth or the personal universe that she so kindly, gracefully and freely offers us with her art. Thank you for letting us all into your universe Nai and may it flood the world.

[@TheFizzjunior]

This song is exquisite. Definitely one of the standouts from this collection of music. It plays into the direction and how intimate this song is, but I love how dry and up front Nai's voice is in the mix. It's almost as if she's singing right in front of you.

[@NicoSilva]

❤ this is just as beautiful as a Chopin's Nocturne... 🥲

[@tany2191]

simon ATE

[@arikayemusic]

left no crumbs !!

[@D.dot.]

the most prettiest song they ever put out

[@JEEVY193]

Legit tears guys, tears of happiness, wonder and beauty.

[@Dieeguus]

This is one of my favorites from the album, so emotional

[@chiaradalmoro9012]

Thank you 💚💚💚 This song hurts but in a good way! It forces you to think about Life and never give up

[@ivan3584]

quanto e` bella!!

[@pezushka]

The best vocalist since Amy Winehouse.

[@Brendan824]

Now I love Nai but that's some serious shade to throw at Lalah Hathaway/Ledisi/Tori Kelly

[@byronmelton6288]

Jill Scott

[@NinaBrewton]

@@Brendan824 Lalah SURELY came to mind first (and many others). But I get what they're saying. I'm SO glad Nai is giving us this fresh air!

[@le1incognito]

@@Brendan824, Imaani from Incognito?

[@alexvanbergeijk609]

This just might be the best song they’ve ever recorded.

[@kanenewman5517]

My father was diagnosed with cancer last year and he made it. This song helped me through

[@arikayemusic]

the lauryn hill is strong on this one

[@allthingsterry]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@yolandat.9044]

This one took me to church.... Like in awe.

[@BPurpleTV]

Do you think making me cry is cool.???!!

[@geoffstockton]

This song just ripped my heart out of my chest in the most enjoyable way. Seriously that shit shook my to the core. Well worth the wait. Sending all the love.

[@isaacbarlow8247]

I'm wiping away tears as I think about my past listening to this song...I love you guys. Thank you..

[@lyndsayodwyer8243]

Cannot help but to cry at the sheer talent of all of you, if I could achieve to have such an intuition with music as you do, life would be complete.

[@GPrice-mg8mi]

Never thought I’d hear a ballot by them. This is beautiful.

[@MarquesTheProducer]

They have “Building A Ladder” 🙌🏾

[@ChevyMaroRS1]

Felt this one down to the core. Please believe me. Mood Valiant.

[@abbeyroad9529]

Listening to this crying my heart out, The vocal and piano delivery are so soulfully beautiful. Rip to all my people and friends who died 7.10.23. I just want peace. This song brings a little peace to my heart.

I've been going through a rough patch lately and hearing her sing was so soothing and really made me sit down for the first time in forever, just listening to this and to myself, taking a deep breath. Absolutely beautiful! Also, I will cry like a baby at their concert if they play this.
