about

BONES is the first album from Motswana Canadian, Afro House artist OK Naledi.

lyrics

Out in the desert's where I lay my heart
And I know that I'm holding on to something that's part of my soul

Simple directions never felt so easy
When left and right keep meeting in the middle of the road

You keep coming late at night
Slipping the oil into my mind
[again, and again]

I don't have a strong defence
When it comes to the feeling well it never ends
[again, and again]

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But ladders and snakes are running into my home right now
I don't know where you've been going
Running around telling lies that are coming from your mouth

Nobody likes a little sweet toothed Sammy
Coming around with their offers a plenty it's so cold

Everyone knows that it comes at a price
That sweet soft gummys got a real sharp bite don't you know

You keep coming late at night
Slipping the oil into my mind
[again, and again]

I don't have a strong defence
When it comes to the feeling well it never ends
[again, and again]

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But ladders and snakes are running into my home right now
I don't know where you've been going
Running around telling lies that are coming from your mouth

I don't mean to be facetious
Just something about the patterns in my life
It's kind of funny when you finally see it
Makes me laugh until I cry

Out in the desert's where I lay my heart
And I know that I'm holding on to something that's part of my soul

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But ladders and snakes are running into my home right now
I don't know where you've been going
Running around telling lies that are coming from your mouth

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But ladders and snakes are running into my home right now
I don't know where you've been going
Running around telling lies that are coming from your mouth
