lirik lagu darth nater – the african elephant song
it’s been three long months
of steady walking
our feet are bl~~dy stumps
and there’s no sign of stopping
my grandmother leads us
she cleans us and feeds us
she can sense a stampede by the way the soil shakes
she can spot a mamba from 100 feet away
and she keeps marching on
she remembers the paths the ancestors taught her
we will survive this – yes, yes
we will find water
and on that day
the kids will play in the marshy savanna grass
and laugh and splash
their voices will be joyous h~rns forged in everlasting brass
the sky will split in half like a stonе struck with a staff
and shower us in telegraphs, raindrops of dots and dashеs
wash our scabby hides until our flesh is as immaculate
as a calf that’s just been born, all wide~eyed and miraculous
but for now my grandmother marches on
she remembers the paths the ancestors taught her
we will survive this – yes, yes
we will find water
but i snap back to real life
and realize where i am
i’m recounting the times that we had
that were both awful and sweet
but you hear the tales i tell like they’re someone else’s stories
i hate the way you look at me
i hate this sterile facility
i hate the condescending tone that i constantly appropriate
but what i hate the most is that i can’t wait to escape
and each passing day
a few more memories are purged from your brain
they rise up from your rotting mind and try to fly to heaven
but dementia is a poacher with an ak47
yes, dementia is a poacher with an ak47
and each passing hour
a few more of your memories are lost forever
completely devoured
cause old age is a pride of lions that cannot be overpowered
old age is a pride of lions that cannot be overpowered
old age is a pride of lions that cannot be overpowered
old age is a pride of lions that cannot be overpowered
old age is a pride of lions that cannot be overpowered
