about

The penultimate single from Riya & Collette Warren's ‘More Sides of Everything’ remix project - ‘Stepping Stones’ ft. Kyrist & Sofi Mari - Acuna Remix.

‘Stepping Stones’ is a song about female empowerment, originally made by four women. Having four women on one track is a sign of how far we've come, but the track itself is also a story of how far we have yet to go.

lyrics

It's just a stepping stone,
To a better way,
Every scar and bone,
Creates a mosaic,
A picture in the whole,
Waiting for the day,
It's just a stepping stone
Make it what you will

Make it what you will
Make it what you will
Make it what you will
Make it what you will

It's just a stepping stone

Stepping into something greater where we all can shine
Matriarchy rise above well overdue its time
Future forward here we go it's best you all get ready
Aretha Franklin in her style we move on we rock steady
Sing our song our force is strong our patience now depleted
From years of pain oppression strain attempts to be defeated
These stepping stones, broken bones, scars and all the tears
Have lifted us through our survival now we’re switching gears
Amplified we’ve unified to stand and show our realness
Though done in kind we had to find most could not bear to hear this
Equality in time

Not a day goes by,
When we don’t give up or try,
We just diversify,
Not a day goes by,
When we don’t kill them with kind,
Our love we amplify

It’s a stepping stone
To a better way
Every scar and bone
Creates a mosaic
Picture in the whole
Waiting for the day
It’s just a stepping stone
Make it what you will
