I originally wrote this song for a friend or moreso, was attempting to write songs for a friend and this was one of the results of that attempt. I felt, that the person I was becoming, was so unlike the person many knew me as, at the time. I wondered what I would say to those people. This is what I would say, especially to those that view me as less than human for whatever reason. In a sense, this song is me accepting my ego, the darkest parts of me, the parts of me that are deemed undesirable and the shedding of the parts of me that yearn to be loved to the detriment of my own dignity.
“WADE BACK”
You couldn’t wade back to the shore
Once you noticed me
I know you from a time
When I was truly incomplete
But looks can be deceiving when
You’re peering out into the sea
You see that I’m no longer (Human)
I sacrificed the last of me
Can you see your way back to
The one you knew, you knew before
Can you see your way back from
The one you see, caught up for real
You thought you could attain me
You thought I was closer to you
But you cannot tame me
Ebambi I am forreal
You thought I was nothing
I was the sand
You were the sea
You thought I could never, achieve the things, I have achieved
You thought, I was nothing, but I am everything
But you could never tame me
Ebambi I am forreal
Don’t get it twisted now
I’m neither demon nor divine
I’m simply essence now
Your words cannot touch me
But looks can be deceiving when
You’re peering out onto the sea
You see that I’m no longer silenced
A black siren of the sea
