The Code Lyrics by Alewya

2021

[Hook 1]
Channel all the ones I'm feeling
Womb is heavy, I'm bleeding
TV channels misleading
Always exposing leaking
We get mad, we seething
Blood boiling, it's heating
Ancestors say look down
Light in the cracks - you’re leaking

[Hook 2]
Head down
Keep my head down
Cuz this life 'bout to push me to the edge now
To the edge now
And it could've been so simple but it's dread now
Yeah, it's dread now
But light is in the cracks that's being wedged how
You gotta get down

[Verse 1]
I was lost and found my truth
This thing deeper than the coco hue
This grim reaper with the staff in his hand
Scaring those that never lost never lose
And if you see what he’s asking for
Then you will know another side of the truth
And this that rebirth we dying for
But it's not pretty, this is gritty, they aloof
So they wanna keep their

[Hook 2]
Head down
Keep my head down
Cuz this life 'bout to push me to the edge now
To the edge now
And it could've been so simple but it's dread now
Yeah, it's dread now
But light is in the cracks that's being wedged how
You gotta get down

[Verse 2]
But are you seeing with ya soul, baby?
Oh, you want some one to blame
But the seed is the one you sown
Oh, don't have to be ashamed
Just please recover
You nuh see we fighting for the mother
Ya nuh feel it (Uh)
Plant your feet in the soil, baby
They gon' talk the talk
And try to mock but you gotta keep your

[Hook 2]
Head down
Keep my head down
Cuz this life 'bout to push me to the edge now
To the edge now
And it could've been so simple but it's dread now
Yeah, it's dread now
But light is in the cracks that's being wedged how
You gotta get down

[Bridge]
Channel all the ones I'm feeling
Womb is heavy, I'm bleeding
TV channels misleading
Always exposing leaking
We get mad, we seething
Blood boiling, it's heating
Ancestors say look down
Light in the cracks - you’re leaking

[Verse 3]
I been waiting for the moment I can speak
I been waiting for the moment I can breathe
I been waiting for the moment that you see
You’re
In the way of the love that moving through we
And ain't no chains gon' stop me ripping through this beat
It's in my veins, it's in my blood, I monthly bleed
The DNA is thicker, slicker than the demons
See, it's the Ethio-Egyptian inside of me
And all this dark you are just so ashamed to feel
You see it's backed up, stacked up in your ovaries
And if you're gonna love from this state, which you will
It's just the side of the truth that you had to see
Uhhhh

[Bridge]
Release, go down
Release, go down
Release, go down
Back up and ground
Release, go down
Release, go down
Release, go down
Back up and ground

[Hook 1]
Just keep your head down
Keep your head down
Cuz this life 'bout to push you to the edge now
To the edge now
And it could've been so simple cuz its dread now
Only dread now
But light is in the crack that's being wedged how
You gotta get down
