The Soil is Bare Now

We were still dancing when the lights came on
We were still entranced when the hype was gone
Sweat wasn't pheromones, just hard work
From running from the day, from the way that it hurt

The sun hit, but the night must've glowed more
With styrofoam adrift like a snowstorm
I toppled a fence just to get to this event
And later on I sprained my ankle on a kid

Almost had a fit picking a fit to fit in
And slowly the crowd grows like an ocean to get it close
A breaker hits, that's it, but hit the breaker it'll kill it though
And this moment is my umbilical

All the party songs sound like pressure
Tryna exorcise the demons we've collected
Yeah this life might leave you on a stretcher
But who cares? I already needed medicine

My therapist said it's all from the trauma
My brother said it's all from my mama
The others said it's all from the commas
But it's my destiny- I do it for the dharma

Playing clue as to who gave me these two eyes
Glazed over and glued to whatever they like
Feel like I gotta floss em just to clean up my mind
Cause they feast on what they see just to keep me alive

Katamari with my heart, cause it's hard just to feel like a man
I harm my conscience it's hard just to feel again
I fill my plate, and I eat until I fill up then
You hold my hair while I play it back end to end

Just wading through the weight of the way that I make a way in
You probably not gonna say that this was all worth the wait
But if this place is where you came from and where you will return to
Tell me, what's it got to say to you?
