feel the body
say i'm sorry
say i'm sorry
and mean it
say i'm sorry
and feel it
feel both sides
feel the apology
and feel some remorse
for turning your bodying a corpse
or for wishing to be one
what are the feelings revealing
dredging up everything
i've ever been concealing
here and there
twenty three and four
i hit the ceiling
the limit of capacity for my nerves
seething

i'm not asking for your mind
just a little time- to open it
layers of energy
in your nerves confined
open your body
to feel the thoughts unwind
takes a little chaos
a little shake up
to realign
said i'm fine
i was not fine
limiting beliefs
hold my self back
from my true potential
view the path as linear
when it could be exponential
keep in mind
it's not all so easy to unwind
being alive is all experimental
when you return to the body
you're not just mental
when's the last time you asked your organs how they feelin
ask your kidneys how they be today
are they tired
stagnant, reminding your brain to feel afraid
how's your liver
furious
remember starting out just curious
before realizing the world around us all spurious
what a distant feeling
assuredness
now carry on
