sessions

(Intro)
In the hush of early memory, shadows stretch, etching the shape of my childhood, a faded sketch, these stories built where recollections falter, passed down like soft inheritance on a sacred altar, a vibe that never alters.

(Verse 1)
Yeah, there's a way to weather all the dissonance, a method for that side-step, slipping through the crowd's dense ignorance, I gotta watch my rep, I'm not the raw self, nah, I'm clothed in this chosen form, the musician, the creator, the steady architect who's present in the storm. 'Cause anxiety, it always beckons from the edge of the unfamiliar, that cold, shaky premonition, but the stage, the song, these practiced hands, they make a sanctuary out of motion, that's the sacred mission.

(Chorus)
Control ain't found in dominance, it's that gentle occupation, it's the will to become the task, the purpose, that's the whole creation, it's not forgetting, nah, it's selective becoming, a remembrance shaped by resilience, while the tribal drums keep humming.

(Verse 2)
Every adaptation is a modest artistry, I'm naming the power to endure, that's the transformed part of me, see, it's the gift, this forging selfhood from all the broken fragments and the stories, I'm carving out my own station, man, I'm taking all the glory.

(Chorus)
Control ain't found in dominance, it's that gentle occupation, it's the will to become the task, the purpose, that's the whole creation, it's not forgetting, nah, it's selective becoming, a remembrance shaped by resilience, while the tribal drums keep humming.

(Outro)
Forging selfhood... just forging selfhood... from fragments... and stories... transformed presence... yeah...
