Track Name: talking
because we're made up
of things
and the thing that i am is a grain
and the brain is a grain in a tree
and a brain is a grain is a tree
and a heart is alive
and a cell is alive
and a face and a sound are a face
to a tree to a land to a place
the thing that i am is a place
and it's made up
of things
and the bugs in my butt have a place
have hearts and guts and brains
and the bugs in my heart
and the bugs in my guts
and the bugs in my brains
and the bugs in the grain
your brain is a grain
in a tree
so i be good to you
if not for your face and sound
for the bugs in your heart
and the bugs in your guts
and the bugs in your brain
we are bugs we are grain
Track Name: brutal discovery
last night
i had the chance to make a change
i di'nt do it
i did not do it

la
last night
i had the chance to make a plan to make a change
god see me through it
girl see me through it

this is my
last night

i'm awake now in our house
i'm starving
i'm dying
i'm dying

our home is filled with us dying
it got to us while we sleeping
can't touch nobody
lost what inside
they're in my way
my eyes
it's in my eyes
it's in my eyes
i did this to survive

what happened to my flight

i'm creeping now on your body
turning it just cold enough for me
i've broken into your insides
i'm full
i came with the pregnancy that left
the one that gave us to you
is beneath us on the floor
i drained it all from that seed
we're more you than me
you're more me than you

i'm with my family
we eating
peace to your family
we'll take it from here
Track Name: air and flash over
if there are ghosts
let them know that they can stay here
1 2 3 trees
1 2 3

they could level us

i could blow at any time
future gift is under me
so when the fire go
well they just no built like me!

my love and my wish is mine!
there's a shift inside my breaths!
every breath i take's a change!
it fwooms and my seed is spread!
Track Name: one two three trees
we can reach
together
we can break it down
together
we can smoke
together
we can clear the air together

we can stand
together
we can fall down
together
we can breathe
together
so we can breathe
together

cuz if
someone is willing to go there
aya

if someone is willing to go there
aya

then we could

we can rot
together
we can grow again
together
we can rot
together
we can grow again
together
we can rot
together
we can grow again
together
we can wave
together
we can soak
together
we can feed
together
cuz we feel the sun
together

so if
someone is willing to go there
aya

if someone is willing to go there
aya

then we will
ya

cuz if you say thank you
i'll say of course
Track Name: sure
ah won t be so
Track Name: tender discovery
i got my body back
from the shadows that day
they made me feel too big for them

if you don't know you're right
if you don't know your rites
you'll never make it back home again

you may find yourself
in a new place
where your dreams are real!

(but if it goes the other way
(if it goes the other way)
there will be a place
i can't tell you where
or how
i
got my body back
from the shadows that day
they made me feel too big for them

if you don't know you're right
if you don't know your rites
you'll never make it back home again
