Between Me And My Maker Lyrics by Kele Okereke

2042

2019

[Verse 1]
The butterfly lands on my palm
And starts to speak to me
He tells me to not think in 4's
It's time to think in 3's
It's a voice I recognise
As a child he spoke to me
He whispered softly through my toys
And sang into my dreams
[Chorus]
Into the light is where I'll go
My body is not my soul
When I die my spirit rise
Upon a cloud of gold
So nothing stands
Between me and my maker
[Verse 2]
He leads me gently to the maze
It's as far as he will go
So I go down to underworld
To face the beast alone
There I saw infinity
Coursing through my veins
And every love I've ever had
And should hope to have again
[Chorus 2]
Into the light is where I'll go
My body is not my soul
When I die my spirit rise
Upon a cloud of gold
I send a prayer to the firmament
To remove what's in my way
So nothing stands
Between me and my maker
[Verse 3]
There are times we share our thoughts
And can speak without words
Like ghosts appear in cigarette smoke
Like god as birds in flight
If I abstain from lustful thoughts
And read the sacred texts
The boy you knew is different now
He's on another plane
[Chorus 2]
Into the light is where I'll go
My body is not my soul
When I die my spirit rise
Upon a cloud of gold
I send a prayer to the firmament
To remove what's in my way
So nothing stands
Between me and my maker
[Outro] (x2)
Taste your words before you speak
Careless talk can sink a ship
The trickster pulls on magik strings
It leads a path, coincidence
Coincidence?
Coincidence?
Coincidence?
Was it all coincidence?
Coincidence?
Coincidence?
