D.J.Desire don’t flex, I don't hex, I bend the room, Sigils in my breath, I consume all gloom, Walk with the dead, have dinner with doom, Still bloom like a rose in a cosmic tomb. I don’t bark, I bite, I don’t beg, I know, grrr Every scar on my body got a halo glow, They talk about god like they met him before, I talk to god every time I get low. Shadow in my pocket, light in my spine, Universe folded inside my design, You chase validation, I harvest time, I don’t need a throne, I am the sign. (kiss noises) (Lead) I don’t speak in straight lines, (BVs) No lines… no lines… (Lead) I speak in rot and rose, (BVs) Rot and rose… (Lead) I don’t knock on the doorway, (BVs) No knocking… (Lead) I become the door and throat.

(BVs) Don’t look away… They scared of the dark, I live in it, Built my throne where the void gets intimate, Every fear you run from, I sit with it, Make tea with my trauma, then spit with it. I don’t fake peace, I make storms behave, Got a serpent mind and a martyr’s gaze, Every lie you swallow, I let it decay, I feed on truth, I don’t need your praise. I don’t need a savior, I am my own, Cut cords, built wings from shattered bones, If you feel uneasy, good, that’s growth, I’m the High Priestess, I speak in codes. (Lead) I am the High Priestess, (BVs) High Priestess… (Lead) Veiled in black and blue, (BVs) Black and blue… (Lead) Keeper of the threshold, (BVs) Threshold… (Lead) Walking between the two.

(BVs) Remember… Got ancestors stacked in my vertebrae, Every step that I take make a temple shake, You pray to a sky, I pray to the grave, Same god, different doorway, different name. I don’t chase fate, I program chance, Write spells with my pulse, watch planets dance, You look for permission, I look for a trance, Then slip through the crack in existence’s pants. I don’t argue with sheep, I shear illusions, I don’t fear death, I do transmutions, You call it madness, I call it fusion, Human and god in a hostile union. (Lead) I read the ink in bloodlines, (BVs) Bloodlines… (Lead) I taste the rust of time, (BVs) Rust of time… (Lead) I hear the dead breathe secrets (BVs) Secrets… (Lead) Through the static in my spine.
