Are you saying I’m not going to be able to figure this out? That it’s just about having the right hands, not the ability or skill?
Oh, my dear, I never said that. The journey is not about having the right hands, but about discovering the music within yourself.

I look at my family as i watch everyone make progress I knew they never had to die at the Massacres if they had known their music. I walk out in front of the group of song castes then lift my song out so people could follow my melody Do not be afraid. Sing my brothers and sisters.
