Adeem the Artist - Reclaim My Name lyrics

Artist: Adeem the Artist

album: Cast Iron Pansexual


I remember myself as a boy
In the yard playing cars
I wore loose-fitting clothes
Still feel that obsolete joy
When the summer got hotter
And we got out the water hose
I wore my shirt in the pool back then
I was afraid to be seen
I've been trying to build a machine
That can convert shame into celebration
I'll go back in time and reclaim my name
I remember myself as a teen
Would just stand near the band
With my hands towards the sky
Embarrassed of everything
Lucky for love received from an invisible guy
Stained by generational sins
I did not deserve good things
I've been trying to build a machine
That can convert shame into celebration
I'll go back in time and reclaim my name
I've been collecting spare parts
From old cars that are long since out of operation
And scraps of old steel,
The frames of used wheels
That feel tired of personification
I'm trying to build a machine
That can convert shame into celebration
I remember when I was still Kyle
The kids called me Cow, even now I grind teeth
Grandma said that I looked fat
From her perch on the porch looking side-eyed at me
I wish I could visit that memory now
And give him a set of the keys
To a makeshift and duct taped machine
That can convert shame into celebration
We could dance to the music it screams
In a cacophonic orchestration
