When It Doesn't Start With A Kiss

Dive in

(Uh) how does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

How does it-

Groove me, on the one, fuck a two, three

Once upon a blue dream, been in cream and linen

Watching blood on the moon drip

Drag bones to the boom-bip

New light, exploded back from the womb pit

New myths, new names, I'ma scream my way out

I'm all the way in

(How does it feel? How does it feel?)

Takin' pause, if you can lose, you can find it

(How does it feel? How does it feel?)

Tell me what it said, no detail could seal

It's all in the feel

Naming names, even when it hurts

Purpose of the pain, back in places, cycles, residual loops

Skin of tooth been pressed for a few

We the only blacks in the rock climb

There's no comfort, in fact sometimes

Speak it out my mouth with the tooth knocked out

When the gold got shaped

When the oracle first said, "Temple jewels"

They said I had to hold my head

They said I had to hold my head

I felt more like myself

I felt more like myself

I felt more like myself

How does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

Uh, how does it feel?

Uh, uh, how does it- (feel?)

SpongeBob to Poseidon, I got the operation in Titan

Supersedin' indictment in place on Dyckman, my high heightened

A piece of the sky priceless, but you know me

I toss it in the recycling

Lost that university stipend, tossed ricing in USPS for the excitements

Tossed and turned all night, I was frightened

The sun came like a jailer jangling keys

Jaunty, Black zombie, cheekbones Ashanti

Gold coast when I tap in, it's a palm tree

Your catalog black Abercrombie

My crypt a multilayered pyramid, Ponzi

Scissoring Seth is engraved in the concrete

Triggerin' hoteps, I'm sniggerin' with the aunties

True story, I forgot four zips in the laundry

I was sweatin', fearful

Went back the next day, she calmly gave me the laundry

Leaned in and said, "Papi, be careful"

They lied when they said it wasn't enough

They lied when they said it wasn't enough

Meet me in the float tank, I got boomers in my system

View the mood, cricket lullaby

Feelin' sick and vicious in a silent west

Name your ops without saying the system, specificity matters

Numbers snitchin', who might die today? I don't know

A world they didn't save was in its final day

Sit black and humble, when didn't niggas wanna fly away?

Entire empire required the fire rain

Eyes covered their bodies right where I came

My seed present and accounted for

My old earth deserves celebration

I mean, I mean, amen (amen)

(Amen, amen, amen, amen...)
