It's hard to keep your head above the water
When everyone around you brings you down
This for my future sons and future daughters
I'll do all I can to make you proud
And even if the times change
I'mma be the same
No, it won't be easy but I'll hide my shame
Times change
Even rearrange
Wonder who's the man that's behind my name
I had to learn how to swim cause it's crucial
All this water gon make me be fruitful
Back to the land of the living
I'm giving and don't need a stamp of approval
I know that people be treading water but I tell em to sink or swim
If imma drown then I'd rather aim for my goals
Even if chances slim
Cause they telling me
I'm not a Star and I don't wanna be
That's a life that give more than it take
I know that everything going eventually
So I just started controlling my fate
At this rate
I can't go back
Split my soul into these tracks
So I gotta take it or live it, might swim with the fishes
If I ever started to slack
It feel like I'm drowning in a sea made of my pain
There's people round me dying
But I still don't feel a thing
I ask God to me floating
When my faith just isn't potent
That's the only reason why I'm here today
Because I prayed
When I was sick and I was dying
Thanking God because my mama stayed
Just keep my head above the water
Til I see the better days
Be it a pool or be it an ocean view
I made a promise to you
Looked in your eyes and said I'd take care of my family
I swear that's what I'm gonna do
All of this rapping been drowning the sound of my failing
I'm flailing in floaties now
My failing can't hold me down
I'm walking on water like Peter but I been ignoring the sounds
I seen the body bags
I seen em murder for cash
They tell me they wanna be free
But they scared cause they fearing the freedom won't last
I used to be stuck in the past
I know what I needed to hear
Was sinking so fast cause I was too tired from running away from my fears
It feel like I'm drowning in a sea made of my pain
There's people round me dying
But I still don't feel a thing
I ask God to me floating
When my faith just isn't potent
That's the only reason why I'm here today
Because I prayed
When I was sick and I was dying
Thanking God because my mama stayed
Just keep my head above the water
Til I see the better days
