Otep - Crawling Up (Spoken Word Poem) lyrics

Crawling up from the wreckage daily
A life of crawling from the crater
From the dents from the Depths
From the flames from the edge from
The bottom from the Awful emptiness
Crawling up my spine into my mind
Crawling up my from the grave from the
Way from the bays of Sadness
Surrounding me drowning me crawling up daily
And wavering a way to escape from
The pain from the way They break me down
Crawling up for the light for
The fight for slight
Pinhole diamond shining through the lazy
Hues of the vast Expense
Of the endless night
Crawling up over the lip down the doom
Through the ruins from the dust and savage
Sands to the next Craggy shaft of
Soggy loam slipping back down
The sludge gripping
With fist Coated in stinking mud
Crawling up and digging in
Spirit split splintered
Needles Chipped and thin I pause
To reclaim my breath
To punish these dreams of
Quiet Surrender to remember
That I do not stop
I don’t give up I don’t give
A fuck I don’t Give in so I begin
Again crawling up crawling out crawling away
Over the moaning bones of those who choose
To quit and Remain i don’t a fuck
I don’t a fuck
