Ike Sara - Fertilizer

Gears turn
Ain't no cure for loneliness
When it's self imposed, yeah
I've found
Woven in the stitching of my mouth
Blisters of spite that grip so tight

Can I still get back
To the insect catching kid
Who left all living things intact?
In the same mud that I came from

Then burned to fume
Drifting like the churches of my youth
Whips won't make you pure
And candy flipping couldn't keep me off the floor
While my folks are getting old
And I still don't have shit to show
Both immigrants from Jamaica shores
But, yeah, now I carry the torch
Yeah, I carry the torch
Yeah, I carry the torch
Yeah, I carry the torch
Carry the torch
Carry the torch
Carry that shit

Spit it out
Cause the inside of your ribs
Will be a tunnel underground
In the same mud that I came from
But never liked
Cause it serves to remind
That I'm just a blink
Of a blink
Of a blink
Of a blink of an eye
Of an eye
My earth is falling faster than it ever has
Nothing can stop the laughter of a universe
Venus is only captured from a passing glance
A seamless transition
My earth is falling faster than it ever has
Nothing can stop the laughter of a universe
Venus is only captured from a passing glance
A seamless transition
One species to the next
A seamless transition to the next
To the next

A serpent pacing
In the mirror you're facing
Does it keep you cased in
Or keep you warm
In seasons changing
G train station
Two people replacing
Where we stood

Was it just
Was it just
Yeah, was it just
Was it just
Was it just fertilizer?
Raw material
Was it just fertilizer
For something else that's gonna grow
