Verse
Salt on the lip like a word you can't say
Knees on the floor where the bassline lay
Hands to the ceiling, palms open wide
Give what the body was keeping inside
Elbows unlock, let the shoulders bow
Something in you kneeling right now
Breath goes ragged, chest goes bare
Skin turns to offering, damp on the air
Pre-Chorus
Let the salt run down like rain
Let the ache turn into gain
Empty out to fill back up
Pour the body like a cup
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising off the skin
Sweat becomes prayer
Let it start again
Sweat becomes prayer
Body bows down low
Sweat becomes prayer
This is how we know
Verse
Backbone curling toward the sound
Hips keep asking, feet stay bound
Wrists gone loose like the grip let go
Water leaving the only way it knows
Throat tipped open, taking the air
Every muscle saying a prayer
Fingers spreading, reaching through
Body speaking the only tongue it knew
Pre-Chorus
Let the salt run down like rain
Let the ache turn into gain
Empty out to fill back up
Pour the body like a cup
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising off the skin
Sweat becomes prayer
Let it start again
Sweat becomes prayer
Body bows down low
Sweat becomes prayer
This is how we know
Bridge
No altar, no stone
Just heat and bone
No temple, no name
Just the body in flame
Nothing to hold
Nothing to owe
Just let it go
Just let it go
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising off the skin
Sweat becomes prayer
Let it start again
Sweat becomes prayer
Body bows down low
Sweat becomes prayer
This is how we know
