XXYYXX - The Flood lyrics

[Verse 1]: So caught up in the tides.... Living a life that ain't mine.... So caught up in the bullsh** But i'm the only one i'm not being real with How i'm gonna swim to safety when i can't Even see the ocean that i'm drowning in Saying that i won't burn down again.. As i start to turn my conscience down again My body like a channel for dat fire rain Paradise on the other side of this ocean of flames But i'm nothing like a devil though More like a angel with some clipped wings... Basically i'm saying i'm lost (lost)... So i find myself in these bars (bars).... And i find my soul in these beats Praying to God i don't end up back into these streets Cuz sometimes the future seem bleek But that k** a n***a life ain't me Remember when my n***a Dayday got shot Right then I knew I had to break free Cuz if your timing ain't right then that drive by life Might put a n***a six feet deep But luckily he only got grazed And even thoough we don't talk no more he in my prayers But it's sh** like that why i can't go back And be another victim of my hood Cuz it's hard to save myself and my n***as When we all in the flood..... [Hook]: We all in the flood n***a... We all in the flood n***a... Said it's hard to save myself and my n***as When we all in the flood We all in the flood n***a... We all in the flood n***a... Said its hard to save myself and my n***as When we all in the flood [Verse 2]: sh**, when we all in the flood Waves getting high Tears drowning they eyes And its mixing wit the rain from the skies Thundering lies, they lay in disguise Disguising they lies as truth The truth is they don't what the truth is So i give em proof in this soundproofing In the booth man ain't no soundproofing a n***a sh** You can ask pruf my n***a sh** Cuz the movement been making music To move the ma**es Ma**ive damage attacking release the kraken Kraken getting guzzled on the high Lowering they eyes Tryna lower my limit Unlimited ways to Drown in da darkness Heartless But a n***a won't lose to the fiends No, i won't cave to da screams No, i won't.......
