Mammal Video (MV)

Mammal

I'm a mammal, baby
My body knows
How to fight and how to run
And how to let it all go
When you see me sprawlin'
Across the grass
It's because I slipped the danger
Now I've let it all pass

And I'm starting to realize
Put down and paralyzed ain't the place for me
Oh no no no
Yes I'm starting to truly know
I'm not build to hold all your anxiety
I'm better at breathing

I'm a part of nature
Born in blood
And when I die, my body
Will return into the mud
But my human spirit,
Something divine
Something un-contained
By all your numbers and lines

And though I've known my share of pain
And felt the shame
Turning me dead inside
Oh no no no
I just don't choose to sit in blame
Or sink so low
I need to run and hide
I'm better at breathing

Now I hiss
And I scream
But I don't need to dream of changing you
If I just do
What I do

And I'm starting to see the truth
Your world so ruthless and powerful
Oh no no no
It ain't got half the power of
The kind of love
That makes my heart this full
I'm better at breathing
I'm better at breathing
I'm better at breathing
I'm better at breathing
I'm better at breathing
