Dragonfly
Nahko
[Verse 1]
You should put that cigarette out
You should have faith in my mouth
Like my mother, like your son
Like my temperamental lungs
Each piece fits into the next
Like I'm not black and I'm not white
Both revere me in my sight

[Verse 2]
You've got twinkles in your eyes
You say, "Vegetarians save lives"
But there's your wings, despite my back
There's your baby's bassinet
Will there be one more of me?
Close my eyes and try to hide
From my former dragonfly

[Verse 3]
Little Bear woke in the woods
Chipped and peeled vehicle hoods
In that van under the covers
I've been stealing from my lover
Moments I cannot replace
To my former dragonfly
I resist and I survive
[Verse 4]
What a state I've brought this to
Logic lies of mine pull through
But what's that say of my character?
I retreat back into nature
Will there be one more of me?
To my form of dragonfly
I resist and I survive, survive

[Outro]
I survive
I survive
This is resistance

I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance

I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance

I survive
I survive
I survive
This is resistance
I survive (oh, this is resistance)
I survive (yeah, this is resistance)
I survive (this is resistance)
This is resistance (this is resistance)
I survive (this is resistance)
I survive
I survive (oh yeah)
This is resistance
