lyrics
If you’re gonna make a battle then say it like it is and lead with your bones
don’t hide behind all the digital cage your name and drain your soul
if you want more life in your life then get your body back to the forest
if you wanna give what you can then get your hands back the soil
We are all wave and particle
spinning round more space than molecule
how can I battle with you if you’re made of the same as me?
if all around me is inside me too then I’d better start looking, diving deep…
If you wanna know why we battle then say it like it is and look to your bones
back to the ones we descend from, memory deep, who fled their homes
if you want more life in your life then get your body down to the river
if you want your hope to be met then walk each step as a life-giver
We are all wave and particle
spinning round more space than molecule
how can I battle with you if you’re made of the same as me?
if all around me is inside me too
then i’d better start looking, diving deep
If you’re gonna make a battle then say it like it is and lead with your bones
don’t hide behind all the digital cage your name and drain your soul
if you want more life in your life then get your body back to the forest
if you wanna give what you can then get your hands back to the soil
We are all… spinning round…
how can I battle with you…
Ko du rashka etiyeh asiyah
Apu rakatana
Apu rakatana…
If you’re gonna make a battle then say it like it is and lead with your bones
look to the roots that you come from, make your peace and find your home
if you want more life in your life then get your body down to the river
if you want your aim to be met then walk each step as a life-giver
don’t hide behind all the digital cage your name and drain your soul
if you want more life in your life then get your body back to the forest
if you wanna give what you can then get your hands back the soil
We are all wave and particle
spinning round more space than molecule
how can I battle with you if you’re made of the same as me?
if all around me is inside me too then I’d better start looking, diving deep…
If you wanna know why we battle then say it like it is and look to your bones
back to the ones we descend from, memory deep, who fled their homes
if you want more life in your life then get your body down to the river
if you want your hope to be met then walk each step as a life-giver
We are all wave and particle
spinning round more space than molecule
how can I battle with you if you’re made of the same as me?
if all around me is inside me too
then i’d better start looking, diving deep
If you’re gonna make a battle then say it like it is and lead with your bones
don’t hide behind all the digital cage your name and drain your soul
if you want more life in your life then get your body back to the forest
if you wanna give what you can then get your hands back to the soil
We are all… spinning round…
how can I battle with you…
Ko du rashka etiyeh asiyah
Apu rakatana
Apu rakatana…
If you’re gonna make a battle then say it like it is and lead with your bones
look to the roots that you come from, make your peace and find your home
if you want more life in your life then get your body down to the river
if you want your aim to be met then walk each step as a life-giver
