lyrics

The Bufo began swimming amphibian
Grew to breathe on land
Congenital defense
A chemical chance against large animals
Encroaching mandibles
Rich croaking, foreboding!
Found inedible and left alone
It's power for now unknown
Until our species tested its built-in milk elixir

Why else produce two-sided weaponry?
Deadly toxin, secretly tryptamine
Creature compass, a tool now secondary
Fervor to dissociate
Origin of this urge, quest of feral ancients
Some treaded, some sunk
Outmoded by psychotropic senses

The human really did it!
What an instinct to be given
Scales stretch our surface
Whispering the mystery in combustion

May this fire catch you
Spread to damaged roots
Light it's path through diversion
And finally find the child,
Fossilized deeply missed
And dance back to life
Feel every inch exist!

You will not ever get permission
But you will get the chance
Adventure's the only purpose
Forgotten as it is
I see you waiting for the signal to advance!
In each facet empathy's capacity
Dormant underground, wait for summer's sound
Rain's vibration, there to awaken
Feel the thunder!

Golden Bufo,
Rises above all you know
Breathes along
Sings it's song to the end
