Lyrics Nahko And Medicine For The People – Dragonfly
Text:
You should put that cigarette out
You should have faith in my mouth
Like my mother, like your son
Like my temperamental lungs
I come not black and I’m not white
Both reveal me in my sight
You’ve got twinkles in your eyes
You say vegetarians save lives
But there’s your wings despite my back
There’s your baby’s bassinet
Will there be one more of me?
Close my eyes and try to hide
From my form of dragonfly
Little bear woke in the woods
Chipped and peeled the echo hurts
In my bed under the covers
I’ve been stealing from my lover
Moments I cannot replace
To my form of dragonfly
I resist and I survive
What a state I’ve brought this to
Logic lives who man pull through?
But what’s that say of my character?
I retreat back into nature
Will there be one more of me?
To my form of dragonfly
I resist and I survive, survive
I survive
I survive
I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
