Flicker (Kanye West Rework)

I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm

And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold

My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones

It keeps my veins hot, the fires find a home in me

I move through town, I'm quiet like a fire

And my necklace is of opal, I tie it and untie

And our people talk to me, but nothing ever hits

So people talk to me, and all the voices just burn holes

I'm going in (ooh)

This is the start of how it all ends

They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speeding up and this is the

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

We're at the start, the colors disappear

I never watch the stars there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

I dream all year, but they're not the same kinds

And the shivers move down my shoulder blades in double time

And now people talk to me I'm slipping out of reach now

People talk to me, and all their faces blur

But I got my fingers laced together and I made a little prison

And I'm locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me

I'm going in (ooh)

This is the start of how it all ends

They used to shout my name, now they whisper it

I'm speeding up and this is the

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

We're at the start, the colors disappear

I never watch the stars there's so much down here

So I just try to keep up with them

Red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart

And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat

Sparking up my heart

And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat-beat-beat-beat
