Shaolin Monk Motherfunk Lyrics

Follow my love, follow my love

Drop into, drop into
Drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
Drop into this, drop into this
Drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo

The lines on your palm cry out to be cloaked
With the steady compass of my own
My constellations burn to be strung to yours
Almighty dot to dot

So drop into this, so drop into this
So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
So drop into this, honey help me swim right through this
So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo

In this heat don't doubt, I own the hour
White ochre shower
Howling as it falls to find the form
Of dust once more
In this heat don't doubt, I own the hour
White ochre shower
Howling as it falls to find the form
Of dust once more
In this heat don't doubt, I own the hour
White ochre shower
Howling as it falls to find the form
Of dust once more

As time fleets don't tire your hands in mine

So drop into this, so drop into this
So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
So drop into this, honey help me swim right through this
So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo

What is the Meaning of Shaolin Monk Motherfunk?

This soulful track is a passionate plea for connection and unity. The lyrics suggest a longing for someone to share in the singer's experiences, with lines such as "Drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo". There's an element of vulnerability in being open to another person, but also strength in being able to stand alone if necessary. The repeated reference to "white ochre shower" could symbolize purification or transformation – the process of something falling apart only to come together again in a new form. This song beautifully captures the human desire for companionship and understanding, while acknowledging the power and beauty of individuality.
