[Intro]
Hmm, people
This song's about forgiveness
How the body keeps score, uh, yeah

[Chorus]
From the four corners of the globe
Where you from, boy? We celebrate the old
They still living through the stories that they told
That ain't the end when the credits roll (When the credits roll)
Come on, take a walk, take a stroll
How your granny's heart never turned cold
Even when they own kids got sold
That ain't the end when the credits roll (When the credits roll)

[Verse]
Man, we can't even imagine the stuff that they would suffer
It's sitting in your bones, the trauma that they endured
And the body kept score (The body kept score)
Aches and pains you still can't explain
My daddy coped with it, with women and narcissism
He was nearly sixty before he learned to listen
And sometimes I hear him when I talk to my children (Talk to my children)
That's why I had to forgive him

[Bridge]
Who am I without him (Who am I without him?) and every him before him? (And every him before him?)
I am all them (I am all them)
[Chorus]
From the four corners of the globe
Where you from, boy? We celebrate the old
Living through the stories that they told
That ain't the end when the credits roll

[Bridge]
Who am I without him and every him before him?
I am all them, huh, I am all him
Who am I without him, every him before him?
I am all them, I am all him
