It's imprinted on your bones Everything you learned back home And even what you think is wrong Stays with you when you're gone
I don't know anything about this I swear I'm not like my mom I'm optimistic With every swallow, every heartbeat You sense the water in your body It's hard to miss it
The thinking the memories that fire The history you compile You save and save and save The system the zeros and the ones Is where it all comes from
The blood that runs in my veins It gets around The water that makes up the rain It only knows down The trouble with communication's When language gets in the way
