lyrics

If I am free
Why can’t I take myself into my own hands?
Then I will be
In a grave never having known my true self
This body is a temple for an alien faith
Who decides if I’m born under the sign of death
This body is made of clay whose form does not bend
With the hands of those who shape it
If everyone I’ve ever been
Is all I’ll ever be
I did not consent to living in this reality
Natal

It’s a curse to know you’re alive
In this errant skin, in this troubled body
I'm an animal trapped in the snare
Of a machine that spits me out once I am used up
And useless

If I am unchanging
Unable to alter who I was before
If I am stagnant
Then I am not a part of this greater organism
Nature gives way to cycles of time
Everything changes and everyone dies
Grab oppressors by their zealous throats
Make this world better for our own
I’m not afraid of death
So hear me thru my teeth
If I have to die I am taking someone with me
Natal
