AMPHIBIOUS
(by kasah + Melody Walker)

When I first saw you
You were weaving through the water
Dancing with the darkness
As you dove beneath the waves

And I was walking
The sandy cliffs above you
You waved me down to join you
In the safety of a cave

And I asked you How did you do that?
Leave the water, and walk the land
Does it hurt you to be standing where I stand
Cause I was told that I would die if my feet left the sand

Then you took my hand
And said….

We are amphibious
Can’t kill that part of us
It took a little trust
But I’m breathing now

We were born in
A storm upon the shoreline
Some of us were landlocked
And some went out to sea

Tried our best just
To bloom where we were planted
But something in us always longed
For somewhere in between

And I wondered How did we do that?
Forget the water, forget the land
I was certain, that my home was where I stand
But that’s a lie and I might die if I don’t leave the sand

And take a chance
And jump in…

We are amphibious
Can’t kill that part of us
It took a little trust
But we’re breathing now
I thought my lungs would bust
You thought you’d burn to dust
But we are amphibious
And we’re breathing now

Ooooo
Ooooo

We are amphibious
Can’t kill that part of us
It took a little trust
But we’re breathing now
It might seem dangerous
But we’re doing what we must
We are amphibious
And we’re breathing now
