lyrics

JACARANDA CITY

I was born by the
Jacaranda tree
purple haze
lining every street

What a place of
natural beauty
like my face
still so hard for you to see
to see

We sit
Half the day
Each part
Perfected
Each braid
Uniform
Our genius neglected
We sit
Half the day
Each part
Perfected
Each braid
Uniform
Our genius neglected

In these
fertile valleys
thousand rivers
and screams

Keeps the land
so green
even winter
it sings
even winter screams

We sit
Half the day
Each part
Perfected
Each braid
Uniform
Our genius neglected
We sit
Half the day
Cater to
Each wave and coil
I bloom
Wating for ya’
To catch on
All we taught ya’

Read my riddles
They’ve been woven
Secret language
Bent, not broken
My line
It caught
The dirt
In your look
Brushed off
The crown
You grabbed
You took

I am fine
throw sticks
and I’m Divine
I always draw
outside your lines
I was born by the
Jacaranda tree
tho I’m native
they still question me
such a place of
natural beauty
like my face
still so hard for you to see
like my face
still so hard for you to see
like my face still so hard for you to see
