[Verse 1] You came in clean With your shiny teeth Said, "Baby, trade" For my family seed You want sweet fruit From a bitter vine You want black smoke In a glass of wine I got mud on my hem And a moon in my jaw I got teeth in my grin And a saint with a claw You don't want my name You want what it grows You want pearls from the bruise And a kiss on the rose [Pre-Chorus] But I read your palm It was empty ash I saw your coin In a church trash bag I know that look I know that need You come for the root Then you leave the tree [Chorus] Wombs for your gold That ain't my trade Wombs for your gold Boy, go dig your grave Wombs for your gold (heh-hey, heh-hey) Wombs for your gold Not today, not today [Verse 2] My auntie said "Don't feed the fox" He'll wear your dress Then he raid your stocks You talk like silk But you smell like rust Your tongue got curls But your hands got dust I been the drum I been the flame I been the wound That learned my name You can't milk a storm Or bottle a flood Can't pawn my blood For a pocket of mud [Pre-Chorus] But I hear your prayer It falls flat, dry Like a fishbone hymn In a dead man's eye I know that trick I know that plea You want my garden Then you curse the seed [Chorus] Wombs for your gold That ain't my trade Wombs for your gold Boy, go dig your grave Wombs for your gold (heh-hey, heh-hey) Wombs for your gold Not today, not today [Bridge] Oh, you can spin That crooked praise You can lace your lies With a velvet haze But my mama's hands Made iron sweet My sisters sing When they shake the leaves So if you kneel Bring a real heart Bring back the hour You tore apart [Chorus] Wombs for your gold That ain't my trade Wombs for your gold Boy, go dig your grave Wombs for your gold (heh-hey, heh-hey) Wombs for your gold Not today, not today
