Lyrics
Where are my categories? Are my categories in the house?
If you don't know.I think common practice is to look behind you
5 decades behind you. oh, there we are.
I'm dead but I'm modern, bae bae
And I can see your skin.
I see the color, the bump, the bulge, the
that's what we're told about skin.
Your tissue wrap reveals everything.
What's under is a scam.
What's under is some words you make-up.
You think you're better than I am.
The skin, the skin, the skin we're in.
The skin, the skin, the skin's a pen:
Pig pen, ink pen, the pig we're in.
The skin, your skin, we'll pen you in.
Cover up your color, honey
with every pigment they got.
Make some dumb excuses for it
that's supposed to mean a lot.
Now get cut, pulled, pierced, filled, branded,
tanned, lightened, resurfacing.
Cover up what's not colored
But it's not a cover up thing.
The skin, the skin, the skin we're in.
The skin, the skin, the skin's a pen:
Pig pen, ink pen, the pig we're in.
The skin, your skin, we'll pen you in.
I see skin, I see skin, I see pinned down.
What's it going to take to lift me out of here?
Excavate. Elevate.
I see skin, I see skin, I see then now.
I just don't belong come lift me out of here.
Accelerate. Elevate.
I see skin, I see skin, and it's dim out.
Something magical come lift me out of here.
Levitate. Elevate.
I see skin, I see skin, I see earthbound.
Something heavenly, please, lift me out of here.
Cultivate. Elevate.
I see skin, and again and again now.
Oh, my fucking gods, come get me out of here.
Coordinate, Elevate.
