Snake

It's CreepyBeats week! Inspired by Halloween, and by my fondness for snakes, and my upcoming journey to Indonesia, a jungle-esque track this week. I came up with the lyrics during a train ride to the airport and recorded the vocals in a hallway of the airport.
At the airport, looking to board a long-haul flight in a few minutes. Will eventually re-record with a decent mic and outside of the airport, but needed to keep the deadline… 
Lyrics:
green
between
leaves and roots and soil
slither from a coil
moist
I hoist
the body of a mouse
from its jungle house
snake
awake
I was always right
you just didn't know
~snake~
thought
I brought
planted in your mind
a gift to humankind
truce
of god
they wanted me away
was I ever shy
snake
awake
I was always right
you just didn't know
~snake~
