I see the mother in the chosen space for me
Little does she know it's free, oh yeah
I'm undercover, as they wait for joy, I cry
On a mission in the dark, ooh, yeah, yeah
And I know my brother
He'll make the journey later on
Conversations in the cosmos, yeah, yeah
But it's all a game now
Once I'm in the world, it's lost
Memories gone to evolve, ooh, yeah, yeah
Merging cells and flesh
I'm re-building all my insides, bright to see the future
Right before my eyes I know
What's coming, what's coming
In the womb, let me out
I'm safe and I'm sound
Cut the cord, I'm coming
Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it
Hold on, now she's birthing
Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life
I'm pushing out the center, the core
I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more
All of the planning
Yet I still feel unprepared
Kick and scream because I'm scared, ooh, yeah, yeah
And I know she suffers
Contractions with howling death
Eyes are bloody screaming out, ooh, yeah
Merging spirit, binding body
Building all my insides, bright to see the future
Right before my eyes I know
What's coming, what's coming
In the womb, let me out
I'm safe and I'm sound
Cut the cord, I'm coming
Got the blue belly button, too hard to pull through with it
Hold on, now she's birthing
Feeling alive, the closer that I get to my life
I'm pushing out the center, the core
I'm sweating through the flower no more, no more
Life is death, is life is death, is life, is
