“This wasn’t written to be pretty. It was written to be true.
Sometimes people want a gentle love — soft edges, quiet moods, easy exits. I’ve never been that kind of woman. And I’ve never written that kind of song.
Ayahuasca is about being the kind of love that unravels you, that asks more than comfort, that makes you look in the mirror and flinch — then breathe deeper. It’s not a love song for being chosen. It’s a song for being seen, even if it’s too much for someone else.
I’m not tea. I’m transformation. If that’s not for you — I understand. But I won’t shrink to fit your taste.”

AYAHUASCA
(I AM NOT YOUR CUP OF TEA)
I’m not the wine that numbs your pain
I’m the storm that calls your name
Zhaina Blair doesn’t sing to soothe. She sings to stir.
With razor-edge lyrics and raw delivery, Ayahuasca is her declaration: I won’t shrink for anyone.
Not a lullaby. A reckoning.
AYAHUASCA Lyrics
I saw it in your eyes that day
You turned your head and looked away
Like I was a mirror you couldn’t face
You craved the sweet, you sought the grace
But baby, I’m the kind that shakes
The truths you fear to dare embrace
I’m not the wine that numbs your pain
I’m the storm that calls your name
The fire, the ache, the sacred rain
That stirs your soul, and won’t explain
But baby, I’m the kind that shakes
The truths you fear to dare embrace
I’m not your cup of tea
I’m ayahuasca
You sip, you shake, you see
The broken pieces you can’t name
And if you run from what’s inside
Then baby, you’re not meant for me
I love with everything I see
I’m not your cup of tea
I don’t just let you drift and be
To love me is to break and see
To burn, dissolve, and start anew
Not everyone can make it through
My heart’s a flame that asks for all
To rise or crumble in its call
Maybe I was too much light, too fast
Or just a ghost from your aching past
I burned too bright, you couldn’t stay
You needed calm, I brought the tide
You weren’t ready to feel alive
My love’s a wave that won’t subside
I’m not your cup of tea
I’m ayahuasca in your heart
I never promise comfort sweet
I never promised comfort sweet
Only a kiss that pulls apart
The parts of you that had to break
So you could rise from your own ache
I’m not your cup of tea
I’m not your cup of tea
I’m ayahuasca in your heart
I never promised comfort sweet
Only a kiss that pulls apart
The parts of you that had to break
So you could rise from your own ache
