Sympathetic activation fire in the wire signal in the spine ancient drum rising higher Heat in my face pulse in my skin old code waking remembering again Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger signal in the body not a stranger Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger energy moving not a stranger You ran through forests under moonlit sky ears to the wind watching the night You read every shadow you guarded the flame you kept us breathing you kept us sustained Sympathetic activation keeper of the gate trained by survival to anticipate You rise like a soldier before there’s a war jaw getting tight eyes on the door But I’m not in the forest no predators near this is old memory echoing fear Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger signal in the body not a stranger Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger energy moving not a stranger If I drop the story and stay with the spark it’s current and voltage it’s light in the dark It can move my body steady my frame power precision without feeding the flame You served my ancestors kept lineage alive now you can soften we don’t have to survive Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger signal in the body not a stranger Sympathetic activation don’t mean danger energy moving not a stranger
