Protected ft. Esjay Jones Lyrics

I am protected

I am protected

By a power that is above

It's below me runs

Right through all of us

There was a question

I asked myself when I was young fantasies high

Motivated by other people's experience

Felt perplexed by all of this

Win or lose no I wanna exist

It was a telltale sign I was changing

All the pieces to the puzzle

In arrangement

Well out of order

Kinda sorta but not as much

Maybe just a little bit

Or a whole bunch

Still tore up holes in my aura

An hour felt like an entire day

Let's celebrate the fact that

It's crumbling down

Camouflage no longer blends in

It doesn't work

Why are we still pretending

It's absurd

Time we had another look

Through a new view

I'm going to shed my skin

I'm going to learn to love without it

I'm going to go within

I'm going to hold myself tonight

These scars they give me arms

Now I can jump beyond

Without this

I'm going to learn to love

I'm going to learn to love

Without it

Whirlwind let's ride it

File in

Wilding out before

The game even begins

It's urgent

Resurgence

Feel this tension in the chest

It builds like a circus

Stampede wild buffalo roaming

Last player to catch a rotten egg

I betcha top ramen that the kettle

Will burn if we don't turn down

The temp

How we ever gonna learn

Sure great yeah sounds like

A good plan

Little boy grew up

Became an old man

Out of the ordinary

Was born extraordinary

Turned toward the core

To find support

Core self core group

Gotta cut the cords

Of the old past

Knocking on my door

Hello

I don't know you anymore

Don't owe you anything

You can come along with me

Got love to bring

I'm going to shed my skin

I'm going to learn to love without it

I'm going to go within

I'm going to hold myself tonight

These scars they give me arms

Now I can jump beyond

Without this

I'm going to learn to love

I'm going to learn to love

Without it

I hold steady during times

Of shaky ground

Umbrella over the head when

Hail fall

Heard the weather

Report reports

Spaghetti and meatballs

Don't turn too quick

You might slip

Over and under

Or under and in-between

When day time starts feeling

Like it's a dream

So dream on and let your

Vision get bigger

I entered in the sweat lodge

Ready to go

Bowed my head to north east

South and west

All the elements feeling my best

It got too hot

But no way I wouldn't leave

Kept my body on the ground

Like I was a tree

Roots

Deep and connected

To everything

I felt the air circulate above me

Sweat dripping like a waterfall

From the top of Mt. Shasta

I could see it all

I'm going to shed my skin

I'm going to learn to love without it

I'm going to go within

I'm going to hold myself tonight

These scars they give me arms

Now I can jump beyond

Without this

I'm going to learn to love

I'm going to learn to love

Without it

I'm going to shed my skin

I'm going to learn to love without it

I'm going to go within

I'm going to hold myself tonight

These scars they give me arms

Now I can jump beyond

Without this

I'm going to go within

I'm going to go within

I'm going to learn to love

Without it

Learn to love myself without this

I'm going to jump jump jump beyond this
