Philosopher of the Swamp feat. STICKY NERD

歌詞

[Intro] Yeah… Born in the mud, but I never stayed there Nah… I bloom different [Hook] I’m the philosopher of the swamp Roots in the dark but my soul don’t rot Water so still, hear the universe talk Lotus rising where the pain don’t stop Mud on my skin, but I glow like dawn Silence deep, I don’t need no crown From the bottom where the ghosts all haunt I bloom, I bloom — I won’t drown [Verse 1] Came from a place where the sun move slow Thick air heavy like the truth don’t flow People sink in what they never outgrow Swamp water mirror show the self you don’t know No applause in the marshland choir Just dragonflies and buried desire Every step like walking through fire But the mud made the mind grow higher They laughed when I said I’d rise Said wisdom don’t grow in grime But pressure is a sacred design And the dirt is a temple in disguise [Pre-Hook] I learned patience from stagnant streams Still water dreaming bigger dreams Even when the sky looked mean I kept my faith unseen [Hook] I’m the philosopher of the swamp Roots in the dark but my soul don’t rot Water so still, hear the universe talk Lotus rising where the pain don’t stop Mud on my skin, but I glow like dawn Silence deep, I don’t need no crown From the bottom where the ghosts all haunt I bloom, I bloom — I won’t drown [Verse 2] Frogs sing hymns in the midnight fog Truth move slow like a drifting log Life ain’t clean, it’s a sacred bog Every scar just a dialogue You see decay, I see rebirth You see curse, I see earth You see dirt, I see worth You see mud, I see birth Lotus don’t argue with the rain It just rise above the stain Peace ain’t found in running away It’s found in learning how to stay [Bridge] Stillness louder than the crowd Humble roots, but spirit proud Low ground taught me how to bow Now I float above it now [Final Hook] I’m the philosopher of the swamp Dark below but my mind stays calm From the depths where the wild things spawn I bloom — untouched, reborn Mud made gold in the break of dawn Water whispers, carry on From the swamp where I belong I bloom… I bloom… I bloom
