Lyrics

[Intro] Butterflies and diamond chains Mmm, you can move mountains When I'm being so full of hate Mmm, you can move mountains (All of my love, oh) Is this you or is this me? Were they here before another time? You can move mountains Now that I am alone I can move mountains (All of my love, oh) [Verse 1] Took a lot to say what I wanted to when everything was dark I saw the blue inside my veins and it was looking at me hard Grey elephants walking down the green elements Orange turmeric in a sea of red ornaments My people's Dravidian, my pupils rime with green in them My skin the outcome of immigrants My mind the sphere of sin mixed in with crippling thoughts of identity Then doves coming home to save me on my last wheelie In the parking lot, this one's for my real shot My redemption song, my connection song My evolution in pink and blue, confusion song My mind made up, you can't move me, I'm a mountain song Oh you're a mustard seed, or you're a part of me Or you're one more than I thought I needed But none less the amount I conceived to be Are we twins from the past, are we bruises that last 'Cause we keep bruising them back This could be our healing, our spiritual Nike socks on the rock Moses pray to the Gods and they mock us back With skies so blue when you're feeling blue There are no Gods, just me and you Don't make me your God [Chorus] Butterflies and diamond chains Waking up, the sun is down again (You can move mountains) Why ain't it being so full of hate? Letting go and becoming sane again (You can move mountains) (All of my love, oh) Is this you or is this me? We were here before and another time (You can move mountains) Now that I am alone I can move mountains (All of my love, oh) [Verse 2] I was never a bitch, I was always kind, but I was fake sometimes I'd say things I didn't mean, I'd make love to people I didn't even feel love for How do you explain the mind that just hangs on the hanger in the closet, fresh but an untouched deposit? Maybe it's my genetic makeup, maybe it's Maybelline, maybe it's my corn side with no sign of a tightening I could spread it all out like I was made to be your object of desire But instead I perspire my box, I was forced to lock the lock I was told to talk the pussy talk after one time And don't get it wrong, my pussy is fucking divine But on a spiritual note, who am I more than my flesh and blood And the canvas of my skin and teeth and eyes and ears and toenails Who am I more, freak at your door or deep awakening in my core The kind that I can't fucking ignore [Chorus] (All of my love, oh) Butterflies and diamond chains Waking up, the sun is down again (You can move mountains) Why ain't it being so full of hate? Letting go and becoming sane again (You can move mountains) (All of my love, oh) Is this you or is this me? We were here before and another time (You can move mountains) Now that I am alone I can move mountains (All of my love, oh) [Outro] I put my feelings so deep inside my pockets Then I took off my jeans, put your name in a locket And then I pawned it I don't wanna care about the past But sometimes it comes bleeding back I'm only human in the eyes of humans But I'm a god in the eyes of Gods
