Returning from the water, cold, alive, and shining
rock a mike in the afterlife while your moon is rising
heatin' up, forcing steam, whirling to be seen
the dark held stars are the frost of my breathing
swimming through the darkness, i'm a ghostly shark
developing like a photograph, slowly in the dark
the hereafter, the action, the main attraction
one love in all of this that i'm going after
Now there's fire inside, but black space surrounds you
you think, "where, oh, where am i" but even your light continues
see through us, see a soul we have not yet
learned to harness, see the next world inside it we are the people of skin who left water
inside the dark womb, inside of our mother
prone to the beat and vibe of our tribe
we catch the drift and ride moving tides
out from a love that will keep on burning
now see yourself to the next world, returning this life, an old place we face to live again
what is it to understand the hereafter?
