BadBadNotGood - Drowning lyrics

[Directed by Nathan Smith] [Intro] We gon' need some d** for the situation Shout out to my plug, its a lituation Won't win it through litigation All we ask is ventilation I can't breathe, I can't breathe I can't breathe, I can't breathe [Hook] When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? Wait, wait, that don't sound right Just wait, one second, that don't sound right When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? Wait, wait, that don't sound right Just wait, one second, that don't (sound right)... [Verse 1] I was high and I was startin' to lose focus Then I stumbled in the water, I was trippin', I was chokin' Saying, I can't breathe Yeah, I can't breathe Started floatin' way out in the open 'fore I knew it I was driftin' in the middle of the ocean Saying, I can't breathe Yeah, I can't breathe Started wailin', started flailin' I was splashing, waves crashing all around me Felt the pa**ion of the water Saying, I can't breathe Yeah, I can't breathe [Hook] When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? Wait, wait, that don't sound right Just wait, one second, that don't sound right When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? Wait, that don't sound right Just wait, one second, that don't sound right [Verse 2] Dial tone on my hotline, it don't bling much Sing songs like Tubman Young Steven Morris, I ain't seen much Just a couple motherf**ers tryna rape the culture Tell the vultures I don't need lunch It's like morse code Gotta be in touch to communicate it to the people Love heals all Best get your immunization, that THC So we smoking in here like we fumigating For the f**boys too much truth in me I don't trust n***as I ain't preaching at you I don't touch boys Brought the baggage with me Like a bus boy I don't need tips You could see mines Rap Genius, you could read mines In between lines Yeah they act genius but the way society is set up Almost like they read minds You heard Alchemy, boy I'm Magneto They can't read mines n***as bark loud Talkin' revolution, when the waves come they turn feline I been turnin' tricks In the coldest part of the deepest water like a sealion, you could see why [Refrain] We gon' need some d** for the situation Shout out to my plug, its a lituation Won't win it through litigation All we ask is ventilation I can't breathe, I can't breathe I can't breathe, I can't breathe [Hook] When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? Wait, wait, that don't sound right Just wait one second, that don't sound right [Bridge] When the real, hold you down, you supposed to drown When the real, ohh hold you down, you supposed to drown When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown I can't breathe I can't breathe no no no no no no no no no no no no auwwwww! I was high and I was startin' to lose focus Then I stumbled in the water, I was trippin', I was chokin' Saying, I can't breathe Yeah, I can't breathe (I can't breathe with this muhf**in' flag round my neck) Started floatin' way out in the open 'fore I knew it I was driftin' in the middle of the ocean Saying, I can't breathe (I can't breathe with this muhf**in' flag round my neck), Yeah, I can't breathe Started wailin', started flailin' I was splashing, waves crashing all around me Felt the pa**ion of the water Saying, I can't breathe (I can't, I can't, I can't breathe with this muhf**in' flag round my neck) Yeah, I can't breathe [Outro] We gon' need some d** for the situation Shout out to my plug, its a lituation Won't win it through litigation All we ask is ventilation We gon' need some d**(love) for the situation Shout out to my plug, its a lituation Won't win it through litigation All we ask is ventilation I can't breathe, I can't breathe I can't breathe, I can't breathe
