Transcript

00:00There is air all around us, a gift from God, free, unmeasured, more than enough for everyone to breathe.

00:09As you inhale deeply, I ask only this, do so without harboring resentment or bitterness toward me.

00:17Breathe honestly. Fill your lungs without spinning stories or lies that harm my name.

00:24Let your breath flow freely, unclouded by actions that bring discomfort or sadness to my life.

00:33Honestly, your ostentatious lifestyle and constant displays of superiority have worn me thin.

00:41All I want is to live in peace, without anxiety, without the shadow of your scrutiny hanging above me.

00:48I'm tired of wondering each day, what will you say about me next?

00:55When will the whispers start again?

00:58I ask nothing from you.

01:01Not your approval, not your favors.

01:05Just space to exist authentically.

01:07Please, learn to let go of envy.

01:13My life is my own, shaped by blessings meant for me, just as yours are for you.

01:19The air flowing through my lungs does not belong to you.

01:24It is a sacred, shared resource given by God.

01:29Treat me with kindness, or if you cannot, simply let me be.

01:33I deserve dignity, even in your absence.

01:38I am myself, not your reflection, not your shadow.

01:44My path and dreams are solely mine to follow.

01:48You may have once controlled my steps, pulled at my strings, but I have broken free from that old dance.

01:55Family might be a bond of blood, but it is not the right to claim my spirit or dictate my choices.

02:05You have your own family, your own responsibilities.

02:09Please, do not try to parent me from afar.

02:14Remember, though we share ancestry, I am not your child.

02:19Respect the boundaries that make us whole.

02:22Consider this, if the air I breathe truly belonged to you, would I not have perished long ago from your disapproval?

02:32I sense your loathing, though I struggle to remember what crime I ever committed to earn such disdain.

02:39The desire to bring me from my side is my little next time.

02:39Thank you for listening.

02:40Thank you for listening.

02:46Thank you for listening.

02:53It is a beautiful sport.
