The lyrics of Grimes ft Deniro Farrar's song Genesis are repetitive and stripped down, creating a hypnotic effect on the listener. The song starts with the lines "My heart, I never feel, I never see, I never know, Oh, heart" that repeat throughout the song. The lyric hints towards the numbness of the heart, the inability to feel or see, and the lack of awareness that one might have towards their own emotions. The following lines, "And then it falls, and then I fall, and then I know" suggest a sudden realization, perhaps after experiencing a heartbreak, that the heart does exist and can be hurt, and this realization ultimately leads to personal growth.
The next verse of the lyrics, "Home and I know, playing the deck above, it's always different, I am the one in love" depicts a scene of nostalgia and a longing for a home that no longer exists. The line "playing the deck above" can be interpreted as a metaphorical reference to a deck of cards or a game, which means that life is unpredictable, and we cannot always be in control of our fate. However, despite the feeling of loss, the lyrics suggest that the singer is the one who is in charge of their own love, and thus, they are empowered to make their own choices.
In summary, Grimes ft Deniro Farrar's song Genesis is a poignant representation of human emotion, where the lyrics depict the struggle to realize and understand one's own emotions, and the realization that one is still in control of their life and choices, including love.
