Body Memory

Lyrics

First snow of Winter
 I'm walking hills and valleys
 Adore this mystical fog!
 This sfucking mist!
 These cliffs are just showing off
 Then the body memory kicks in
 I mime my whole mountains
 The moss that I'm made of
 I redeem myself
 I've been wrestling my fate
 Do I accept this ending?
 Will I accept my death?
 Or struggle claustrophobic?
 Fought like a wolverine
 With my destiny
 Refuse to accept what was meant to be
 Then the body memory kicks in, and I trust the unknown
 Unfathomable imagination
 Surrender to future
 Oh, how to capture all this love
 And find a pathway for it
 Like threading an ocean through a needle
 Ribbon through a keyhole
 Can't fathom the grasp
 I can't grasp the fathom
 Then the body memory kicks in
 My limbs and tongue take over
 Like the ancestors before me
 Show me the flow
 My sexual DNA
 X-rays of my Kama Sutras
 Summons different bodies
 Compares spines and buttocks
 And back of necks
 Then my body memory kicks in
 It simply takes over
 Beastiality
 I redeem my body
 I wasn't born urban
 Toxic doesn't agree with me
 A love lured me here
 Into a stagnant state
 My myths, my customs, ridiculed
 Vacuum-packed molecules
 Then my body memory kicks in
 On this Brooklyn dance floor
 Sweating with these rhythms
 Rotate this matrix
 I'm trapped in legal harness
 Kafka-esque, farce like patriarchy
 Avoid it to confront it
 Then the body memory kicks in
 My warrior awakens
 My turn to defend
 Urban didn't tame me
 Then my body memory kicks in
 Bosoms and embraces
 Oral, anal entrances
 Enjoy the satisfaction
 If the other is growing
