Rot the Same

Shoved into the loam
with the roots and the stones
like bodies left unturned
my flesh, my soul entombed...
Still alive, I can feel the maggots
plotting their escape, into my thoughts
I don't blame them, I want to be free
of these bones, of this corporeality
Free me

Exhume the insects, but not for punishment
I thank their hundredsome legs, their curiosity
for driving my own fingers into my cranial cavity
to unearth the relics within, the teeming ocean
voices that deserve to be heard, like a billion ravens

Can't say I didn't see this shit coming...
Bury me? I don't fucking think so...
I've got maggot mentality, I'm six feet free
but claustrophobia ain't a good look for me
and this corpse is feeling rather lively
Of all things that would keep me suffocated
the earth is far from a top ingredient
Sundered from root and clay
I've abandoned flesh for the sake
of something far greater:
the particles in the atmosphere
and the leaves on trees against wind-shear;
for I am meatless, I am vaster
Dissected of weaknesses
my reach is limitless
no coffin could contain my presence
no amount of earth could repress this
I'm free motherfucker, I'm in the air
and I'm down your fucking throat!
I'm in the air and I'm all around!
