When It Doesn't Start With A Kiss

Dive in

(Uh) how does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
How does it-

Groove me, on the one, fuck a two, three
Once upon a blue dream, been in cream and linen
Watching blood on the moon drip
Drag bones to the boom-bip
New light, exploded back from the womb pit
New myths, new names, I'ma scream my way out
I'm all the way in

(How does it feel? How does it feel?)
Takin' pause, if you can lose, you can find it
(How does it feel? How does it feel?)
Tell me what it said, no detail could seal
It's all in the feel
Naming names, even when it hurts
Purpose of the pain, back in places, cycles, residual loops
Skin of tooth been pressed for a few

We the only blacks in the rock climb
There's no comfort, in fact sometimes
Speak it out my mouth with the tooth knocked out
When the gold got shaped
When the oracle first said, "Temple jewels"

They said I had to hold my head
They said I had to hold my head
I felt more like myself
I felt more like myself
I felt more like myself

How does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
Uh, how does it feel?
Uh, uh, how does it- (feel?)

SpongeBob to Poseidon, I got the operation in Titan
Supersedin' indictment in place on Dyckman, my high heightened
A piece of the sky priceless, but you know me
I toss it in the recycling
Lost that university stipend, tossed ricing in USPS for the excitements
Tossed and turned all night, I was frightened
The sun came like a jailer jangling keys
Jaunty, Black zombie, cheekbones Ashanti

Gold coast when I tap in, it's a palm tree
Your catalog black Abercrombie
My crypt a multilayered pyramid, Ponzi
Scissoring Seth is engraved in the concrete
Triggerin' hoteps, I'm sniggerin' with the aunties
True story, I forgot four zips in the laundry
I was sweatin', fearful
Went back the next day, she calmly gave me the laundry
Leaned in and said, "Papi, be careful"

They lied when they said it wasn't enough
They lied when they said it wasn't enough

Meet me in the float tank, I got boomers in my system
View the mood, cricket lullaby
Feelin' sick and vicious in a silent west
Name your ops without saying the system, specificity matters
Numbers snitchin', who might die today? I don't know
A world they didn't save was in its final day
Sit black and humble, when didn't niggas wanna fly away?

Entire empire required the fire rain
Eyes covered their bodies right where I came
My seed present and accounted for
My old earth deserves celebration

I mean, I mean, amen (amen)
(Amen, amen, amen, amen...)
