THE WHO OF WHAT WE ARE The fog strips us right down to our voices only leaves out the shape or the skin we're in & even what *** we are we lose society's references how it elects to see us stumble around in this cotton wool & somehow now we re-emerge our selves tentatively again you most definitely  woman I made man again white skin embracing black skin nothing now but love

THE WHO OF WHAT WE ARE
THE WHO OF WHAT WE ARE The fog strips us right down to our voices only leaves out the shape or the skin we're in & even what *** we are we lose society's references how it elects to see us stumble around in this cotton wool & somehow now we re-emerge our selves tentatively again you most definitely  woman I made man again white skin embracing black skin nothing now but love
Me and my Jamaican missus getting lost in the fog as if we had been erased and finding each other again. We had both being spat at because we were a mixed race couple by both white and black.. All we knew is that, we were...love. Love has no colour...no shape...love just...is!
