Under the Strikes (feat. Tony Allen)

I was born under strikes where I lost my mind and I lost my sight

I was born under strikes, but I lost my way and I lost my mind

And I have lived in the finest times, but I gave it up just to wait in line

But I was born in the dark of night, but I made my signs and I made my life

Under the strikes

Under the strikes

Under the strikes, ooh

Under the strikes

You were born under blue skies

But you lost your way and you lost your mind

And I cracked my ribs, but I found my spine

We truly lived in the best of times

I once made my perfect home

Where I found myself, but I ate alone, yeah

I once knew all of your names

But I sold 'em off and went insane

Under the strikes

Under the strikes, ooh

Under the strikes

Under the strikes

Under the strikes

And I once thought we had time to spare

Seasons change into winter air

A lion lifts and leaves the room

And all our days are gone too soon

I once thought we had time to spare

Seasons come in a winter air

A lion looks and leaves the room

And all those days are gone too soon

And I once thought there was time to spare

Seasons turn in the winter air

A lion lifts and leaves the room

And all our days are gone too soon
