Won’t tell you what it is
I’ll tell you how it feels
Won’t know how it came
There, to my body
Couldn’t tell
StillI’ll tell, tell, tell
Can’t think of if going
after it had come
I’ll tell you how it stays, here,
In my body
I won’t define
As long as I live
As long as it lives
For the being won’t stop living
Organic art doesn’t stop
Organic art
Not artificial
organic art in my organs
organic art through my veins,
You come out in so many ways
Expressions
No pressure
Impressions
No pressure
Come your way
Go their way
Peer pressure
In your way
Free
Yourself
Let out
Exhale
Articulate
Let in
Free
From pressure
And your body will follow
Your body

I won’t define
As long as I live
As long as it lives
Oppressors will tell you how it is
They know, that’s what they say
They don’t say I
They dehumanize the human
An impersonal self looking on the self
Impersonal self looking on itself
Seeing itself
Not seeing
Oneself
Seeing nothing, not reaching to the touch of your body
To your membranes
Brains cutting the veins
Life of your body
Cutting is the complexed oppressor
Decomplexing flows of lives in you
Impersonal self looking on itself
Dismembering
Eclipsing
Not to listen better
Eclipsing
To control you
Eclipsing
To eclipse you
Dismembering
Remembrance
Dismembering bodies acting on your bodies
No Space to the oppressor
Member together, he will go
Member again
