Perfect Wounds

[Chorus: Rachel Chinouriri]

Maybe this time, beneath the burning coal

You'll find the ziptides, that turn the love to stone

We'll do it all again, all again

Is it worth it, are the wounds too perfect?

[Post-Chorus: Che Lingo]

Pick your poison choose it wisely

Sip slow and then invite me, yeah

To partake in what's been hurting your soul

Cause I've been yearning to know

Head up, I've been on the verge of exploding

But I don't want this shrapnel to deter you from growth

So I've been working from home, getting burst in my zone

There's a fortress round this heart of minе, should I let you in I can't decide

[Verse 1: Che Lingo]

I wondеr what does really happen after you die

I'd like to think you just relive the favourite parts of your memories

Til your soul is high enough to become part of the sky

Its not easy to share that feeling and its harder to try

When you really have to evaluate those parts of your life

That you've been afraid of facing, stepping into dark from the light

And all that you've experienced from heart to your eyes

You see it clear now, like surgery for the partially blind

Because you felt the pain from tribulations, laughter can't hide

Whatever happens, you take that as a part of your stride

And carve your destiny out hard with that knife

The same knife they stabbed your back with made you sharper, besides

These things have destroyed kings and seen disaster run rife

No revenge, I seek redemption and let karma decide

We just patch ourselves up, but then we blast as we find

[Chorus: Rachel Chinouriri]

Maybe this time, beneath the burning coal

You'll find the ziptides, that turn the love to stone

We'll do it all again, all again

Is it worth it, are the wounds too perfect?

[Post-Chorus: Che Lingo]

Pick your poison choose it wisely

Sip slow and then invite me, yeah

To partake in what's been hurting your soul

Cause I've been yearning to know

Head up, I've been on the verge of exploding

But I don't want this shrapnel to deter you from growth

So I've been working from home, getting burst in my zone

There's a fortress round this heart of mine, should I let you in I can't decide

[Verse 2: Che Lingo]

I've got so much toxicity lingering in my history

Man I know what it's meant to be but it's never that simple, see

I've got powerful demons here, paying rent and they live with me

Got me questioning everything, I'm on trial consistently

So I never know where to go

No direction I've been treading slow with this heavy load

All these skeletons but your my rib, turning spiritual

Can't forget this love is sacrifice, my problems letting go

We might have to let it die, but I'm so afraid of ghosts

Hanging on by a thread while I hang on every note

You're my siren on the rock, shipwrecking every boat

Now a nigga sinking deep like a couple semicoats

So you better pick your poison choose it wisely

Sip slow and then invite me, yeah

To partake in what's been hurting your soul

Cause I've been yearning to know

[Chorus: Rachel Chinouriri]

Maybe this time, beneath the burning coal

You'll find the ziptides, that turn the love to stone

We'll do it all again, all again

Is it worth it, are the wounds too perfect?

[Post-Chorus: Che Lingo]

Pick your poison choose it wisely

Sip slow and then invite me, yeah

To partake in what's been hurting your soul

Cause I've been yearning to know

Head up, I've been on the verge of exploding

But I don't want this shrapnel to deter you from growth

So I've been working from home, getting burst in my zone

There's a fortress round this heart of mine, should I let you in I can't decide
