lyrics

I feel the tug-of-war
Down beneath my bones
I feel the push and pull of blood
I got a fight going on
With immune ghosts
And plain regular ghosts
They tend to aim at me
I tend to try hard not to care

I'm sorry but you'll have to go
I can't feel my feet
There's no-one after me
I swear I saw a knife
In his other hand

I do the heavy work
Sow seeds of unity
Ever since I was a child
I hear ancestral rhyme
I see my father's shoes
And his father's shoes
I feel the rush of pumping blood
I have my mother's lungs
I have my mother's lungs
I sing my father's songs
You breathe I breathe
Time sends and I receive
