Brown Lyrics

push, meat, blood, and hair
mother to mother
push, born of the mud
dried in the salt air
push, down at the root
slipping from somewhere
brown
push, slick with the sweat
fed by the bright air
push, born to the dirt
eye full of wonder
push, rock in one hand
earth in the other
brown
push, catching a flame
wheels rolling under
push, sky not a roof
ground not a bottom
oh, this is not yours
you are the world's
brown
