Peel Free - WHY?

I was born choked in a shroud of thick smoke

I was born under a cataract from a cataract

I was born swimming in that milky aura, yeah

I was born in that old stretched out birthsack I’m in

But I was born in spring

The year Jupiter got its rings

Singing, «I will peel free»

I’ve been shaking off a shadow all my life

I was born inflamed

Shot face-first out the cocked eye of a hurricane

And today, still some of that storm surrounds me

But I was born in spring

And baptized in the kitchen sink

And I’ma shake that storm from my frame

I’ve been shaking off a shadow all my life

I’ve been shaking off a shadow all my life

Oh, I may be pink when I come out my skin

Oh, I may come out a broken yolk

I may come out on saddle

Ooh, yeah

Yeah, I was born in spring

Anointed in kerosene

I might yet take flame

I’ve been shaking off a shadow all my life

I’ve been shaking off a shadow all my life

And I’ll crawl loose

Yes, I intend to claw loose

I’ll crawl loose

I’ll claw loose

Yoni, we’re on our own
