Quicksand

by Kawa Nanuk

on Yoshi (2018)

When you immerse your palms in your chest
You feel the heaviness of wrong choices
Squeeze your own lungs and let the soul feel the grief
While your finger explores what's hiding underneath
Three steps ahead and ten behing
You start to think the furtune is truly blind
Who has the tongue passes the sea, they say
But I can't see any seashore to rest and lay

Make your own ritual so the health will be mutual
Let my skin feel relief, and my limbs drop out of this whims

Milk and fire are running through my veins
I'm a Kalheesi, I'm the saint breaker of chains
Oh my dear Parcae, I won't bend the knee
Just as Bjork said “You will meet an army of me”
My own fate is mine to make
I've learnt the life is one big give-and-take
Arise my friends, get up, that shore is near
We've been so brave, you know, we've reached the stratosphere

You ignore it, you should know it, I will come back home no more, no no
