Sweat as Prayer lyrics
Intro
Salt on my lip
Steam off the skin
Floor drinks it in
Verse
Heat climbs up from the concrete
Every pore keeps giving water
Shirt gone heavy, arms still open
This is the only offering I brought her
Pre-Chorus
Let it run, let it pour
This is the language I'm made for
No mouth needed, no word required
Just the water leaving fire
Chorus
Sweat as prayer
Sweat as prayer
Salt and heat rising in the air
Sweat as prayer
Verse
Kick comes low and pulls it faster
Skin remembers what the drum is saying
Nothing dry left on my body
Every drop is me still praying
Pre-Chorus
Let it run, let it pour
This is the language I'm made for
No mouth needed, no word required
Just the water leaving fire
Chorus
Sweat as prayer
Sweat as prayer
Salt and heat rising in the air
Sweat as prayer
Bridge
Drop by drop the hours dissolve
Clock hands drown in the given water
No before, no after
Just the floor and what I offer
Outro
Sweat as prayer
Salt and heat rising in the air
Sweat as prayer
