Walking Both Sides of an Invisible  Of distinctive dance steps 

Border  That allow me to avoid 


Alootook Ipellie  Potential personal paranoia 
  On both sides of this invisible border 
It is never easy   
Walking with an invisible border  Sometimes this border becomes so 
Separating my left and right foot  wide 
I feel like an illegitimate child  That I am unable to take another step 
Forsaken by my parents  My feet being too far apart 
At least I can claim innocence   
Since I did not ask to come  When my crotch begins to tear apart 
Into this world  I am forced to invent 
   A brand new dance step 
Walking on both sides of this  The premier choreographer 
Invisible border  Saving the day once more  
Each and every day   
And for the rest of my life  Destiny acted itself out 
Is like having been  Deciding for me where I would come 
Sentenced to a torture chamber  from 
Without having committed a crime  And what I would become 
   
Understanding the history of humanity  So I am left to fend for myself 
I am not the least surprised  Walking in two different worlds 
This is happening to me   
A non-entity  Trying my best to make sense 
During this population explosion  Of two opposing cultures 
In a minuscule world   Which are unable to integrate 
  Lest they swallow one another whole  
I did not ask to be born an Inuk   
Nor did I ask to be forced  Each and every day 
To learn an alien culture  Is a fighting day 
With an alien language  A war of raw nerves 
But I lucked out on fate  And to show for my efforts 
Which I am unable to do  I have a fair share of wins and losses 
  When will all this end 
I have resorted to fancy dancing  This senseless battle 
In order to survive each day  Between my left and right foot 
No wonder I have earned   
  When will the invisible border 
The dubious reputation of being  Cease to be 
The world’s premier choreographer
