| When you here in the water*
|
| And you feel like it’s order releasing your tension,
|
| The stress and disorder is big in America,
|
| Stephanie, Erica, both of them suffer from livin in hari cause,
|
| Livin is very competitive,
|
| Hassling creditors, hazardous, accidents,
|
| Driving with negligence, to many beverages,
|
| People got to many things on they letters,
|
| Says tvs deadliest, professing the ugliest, war, war, war, war
|
| What the hell you keep on killing me for,
|
| Please won’t you come and bend down low,
|
| Let me tell you what little I know, and if it’s worth something,
|
| Spread it indeed like shit and vomit that’s under your feet,
|
| I was born in a pot boiling black and hot,
|
| Waiting to be tasted and rapping alot,
|
| But justice would not come and eat my flesh,
|
| Instead I had poverty to feed my stress,
|
| Until my life became an ode to the gun,
|
| Not needed like an overcoat to the sun,
|
| So I thought I was just made to exist,
|
| Not to live or, change or resist,
|
| But fear will have you believe in fear,
|
| Paralyze have you believe in tears,
|
| This is the therapy needed so use it,
|
| Music is water, you know how I might prove this,
|
| People need music like they need excuses,
|
| People need water like kanye needs jesus,
|
| So wash it down, (wash it down)
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down)
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down),
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down),
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down),
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down)
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down)
|
| Wash it down, (wash it down)
|
| I know you stressin,
|
| This is a little meditation for you to relax and jump in the pool
|
| And you know, sink and sing,
|
| My people drum on water,
|
| Drink on water,
|
| Live on water,
|
| Die for water,
|
| My people drum on water,
|
| Drink on water,
|
| Live on water,
|
| Die for water. |
