Lyrics
I was born in Aurora, north Denver’s where I reside How many times have we done this before, how many times have we died? Tetsuo city I see brown streaks like the bridge was crying rust Trying to find nostalgia, but just breathing melancholia’s dust Blood on my cheek, metal in my knee, think of it as jewelry Sleeved and resleeved, deceived, unsleeved and relieved Past lives retrieved, besiegеd by grief, madness achievеd Demons and greed, sipping tulsi, found a teacher in a willow tree Bardo dreams, 49 days but I won't return, I don't believe No more jobs, no more debt, no more people robbing me Time indefinite, there's no linear time, that cycle I left it I made sad realms and hell worlds, the lord of death is my own projection Do not stand by my grave and weep, I am not matter, I am not there My stack is shattered, 4 elements, consciousness comes after air Sometimes you need to devour yourself to keep something else alive So help me unbuild these walls, hold my hand, let's climb inside When I leave this world My bodies gonna break and burn Who am I gonna be when I unfurl? What is real life, real death, rebirth You gave me your story I didn't know they'd come and cut you down I heard when kings would ride under you, your branches would knock off their crowns Rain drops from your leaves, fall like tears it makes a type of tea Your bark cures pain, your branches are tendrils, each one's a memory But you're still alive in a different form I’m climbing your roots like a ladder The moon pulls our tears, fearful thoughts I let them all shatter Take these branches to the underworld, bend and sway with them like the wind Make a harp from them, then play a hopeful song for a friend Desperate thoughts turn to demons, gluttony is where sharing ends But these are just our masks, we forget we are wearing them If we don’t care for others we can’t know our own minds To evolve is to be dispossessed, even from cycles of time Let stems rise from my coffin sprout and give me boundless compa**ion I went to hug her and only found leaves and the wool of catkins Sometimes you need to devour yourself to keep someone else alive So help me unbuild these walls, hold my hand, let's climb inside When I leave this world My bodies gonna break and burn Who am I gonna be when I unfurl? What is real life, real death, rebirth I know when I leave this world My bodies gonna break and burn Who am I gonna be when I unfurl? What is real life, real death, rebirth What is real?
