combination Lyrics

Atoms alive, cells inscribed, deprived

Under repair, in theory

See despair and disparity

The pair of 'em, apparently

Aware in me, but most see only what they care to see

A lotta care, it's never free

Been daring me to find what's rare

The fare is high, it's hardly fair

They justify, we're rarely square

And barely there sometimes

They blank stare sometimes

Not Gemini, no CC

But I still see see both sides

The light between the blinds

Beat on repeat, I write

Like drawing blood in the ink

So I could receive my mind

Keep reaching deeper inside

Revealing sites for the healing, where clever trauma resides

Feeling of falling is freeing, 'cause once I've fallen, I rise

Aloe dripping red, re-opened scabs, Leo in mars and moon

Ram sees what's coming to pass

Reflexes deflect but do you reflect

Or inflect to respect, remember teachings

Inspect your leeches, and reasons for why

Contest me

I'll go head to head

Fight with heart instead

Contest me I learned bleeding

Seeking 'til this body's out of breathing

Say it with my chest

Contest me

1, 2, 3, 10, or 1, 2, 5, 2

Give me a reason, I wouldn't try to

Contest me

Lessons among lesions, sting with tea tree

Necessary cleaning

Honey to my scars and heated water, running

Never from the brawl but toward the calling

Purpose hardest pill to swallow

See the truth creep from all sides

Navigate the noise

What's factual and false, like, combination lock

I almost forgot my heart of water's alive in that fire

Balance embodied, couldn't evap if I tried

Ase, Agbára, Mashallah

Divided by divine

A few times

I seek, I seek, find

I cry, for couple reasons combined

Moments tucked in my eyes

Of the ashes, even higher I fly

I flap, float

My eyes on that boat

Horizon line, quote me, and as for all smoke

For that, I'm at throats

When chakras don't hold me

Solar plexus open and glowing, I'm ever-growing

Much wiser if I let it alone, but don't you

Contest me

I'll go head to head

Fight with heart instead

Contest me I learned bleeding

Seeking 'til this body's out of breathing

Say it with my chest

Contest me
