Okay, so does anyone remember the basically Avatar the Last Airbender renaissance? Where everyone started getting back into it, and there was even a playlist of AtLA musical numbers?
Yeah, Balance helped me get through my thesis when I was near-on breaking down. It gave me sanity for much longer than I would have had without it.
So. Since then, the creator has dropped at least three bangers, Top of my School, Price of Perfection, and Saving Face. They are Great. She's auditioned for Canada's Got Talent and actually made it to the stage (I auditioned for AGT twice and got nowhere close, so the fact that she got that far is astounding and pretty cool).
Now, she's making a short musical film. As per the introduction of their fundraising page:
Hello! We are a team of student filmmakers from Cornell University studying film production, media studies, and performing and media arts. We are currently fundraising for Cornell University film project Silence. Written and directed by award-winning student filmmaker Katherine Lynn-Rose, Silence is a short film that explores familial love, connection, and culture through the lens of a musical film. As a team of BIPOC filmmakers, we hold a deep appreciation for narratives that authentically reflect our lives, experiences, and cultures, and it is our aspiration to bring such stories to light.
Anyways. Fundraising. She needs funds to get there, and they're aiming for 2k. So far, they've got $450.
If you can't donate, can you at least spread this? Absolutely zero shame (cause I think she'd hate that anyways). I just think she's really skilled and think it'd be cool if she and her team gets to make a film. I'd like to see how they communicate their vision.
Anyways, here's the link. Bye!
Cool
Hard Eyes
Call me your’s
Call me small
Call me pretty
Say it all
Call me your’s
Never mine
Call me ruined
I won’t whine
———
But I hear the cries of your people
They’re begging you, they’re begging you to stop
They’re begging you for once please be merciful
You don’t have to be the one always on top
———
Say you’re sad
Say you cried
Say you’re frightened
That you hide
I see the hate
In your eyes
You are haughty
Full of lies
———
But I hear the cries of your people
They’re begging you, they’re begging you to stop
They’re begging you for once please be merciful
You don’t have to be the one always on top
———
Call me bitch
Call me whore
Say I’ll never
Deserve more
Say you’re great
Full of wit
I won’t say you’re
Full of it
———
But I hear the cries of your people
They’re begging you, they’re begging you to stop
They’re begging you for once please be merciful
You don’t have to be the one always on top
———
I’m betting, sir, that your father adored you
I’m betting, sir, that the servants deplored you
I’m betting sir, that the kingdom was yours
And all the bountiful riches it stored
I’m betting, sir, that you never knew pain
That you never knew hierarchy’s reign
Except of course, you are hierarchy’s god
You don’t spare the shackles, you don’t spare the rod
———
And I hear the cries of your people
They’re begging you, they’re begging you to stop
They’re begging you for once please be merciful
You don’t have to be the one always on top
———
May your palace burn with you in it, your highness
My life is for my people and planet, their kindness
Loveee her

No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah... It was an accident It's just ignorance Didn't mean to do it, do it, no So I let it pass, roll off my back No reason to cry over and over But the tear stains on my pillow Tell me that I don't know how to really let this go
No one hurts me knowingly And I don't really let them see The scars they leave under my sleeve I guess that's on me, yeah...
Well, my broken heart is just collateral damage to someone's selfish tendencies Maybe if I spoke up Tell them I had enough, they'd listen to me But maybe they won't, and maybe they don't - They don't care what they do to me Listen Here
