IGNORVNCE - Drowning lyrics
[Verse 1] Everybody's very scared of drowning but i'm also scared of swimming Anybody on who i've been counting, got away if they were winning And i got so much to deal with, trust me it's not a lil bit You see the sadness in me but can you still see Philip Real sh**, lately i've thinking that i could never k** it I'm destined to live on a path that i will hate and i feel it I woke up in a nightmare, right here, where i couldn't fight fear Same place, different time, distance felt like there been a lightyear I've been stepped on and avoid like i was just some dog sh** Asking when will the fog split? They say doves dodge the frog spit But they still aiming though, life showed me mother's crying Brother's dying, fathers praying, we've been going back with leaps of giant Lovers are lying, birds are scared of flying Dreaming feels better than trying, but we all looking for triumph The water's rising, the word horizon has lost his meaning Tell me how to be an angel when you're surrounded by demons [Verse 2] Everybody's very scared of drowning but i'm also scared of swimming Anybody on who i've been counting, got away if they were winning I tried to stick with the homies and if i can, show them love Our stories go beyond the money, and i remember how it was Struggling, hustling, still looking for that fast money, cash money Living in this world is being treated like you're another crash dummy If you go away you might get shot and if you stay home, well you might not Try to stay up when the bodies drop and to keep up when nobodies stop Good luck to live like this, in a world where you might just Follow than trynna ideas or leave now and be lifeless f** man now it's a crisis don't forget life is priceless So just try to act righteous and you may find surprises I won't turn back after i walked all of this distance In case you missed it, you stay persistent for your existence I'm just trying to leave a mark, i'm not tryin' to be heroic Just to be one of the million others street poet [Outro] A man drownin' in a pool of lies Complainin' about a cruel life But after all it's in his rights Poor man pay twice the price Watchin' the sun from his long sight Thinkin' how heavy it is for some light One of the Sun's ray is in his eye So he asks it not to shine It answers back "please do not mind It's mine, don't move and take your time"
