Water

I'm sure you've heard this all before
Sure you look familiar, sure the cost of living
Keep on rising with no limits
N-Name a politician gave a fuck about your feelings
Name a single trend that didn't end up like a gimmick
Think there's something in the water
Tell me what the mission is, I see lead showers
Code word. Flint Michigan
Attire match my melanin
Black on Black is militant
Represents my diligence
I see through that privilege

Somethings in the water
I think there's something in the water

And I still don't watch the news
Barely trust the facts now
Liar liar liar, throwing stones
Then hide hands. Wow
That don't make no man proud
Tears might make my city drown
I'm too scared to speak to God
There's shooters in the churches now
Somethings in the water
Tell me what the mission is
Just another citizen that sacrifice my discipline
Still don't know my origin
Still don't know who's listening
Still can't tell the difference between
Strength and my conditioning

Somethings in the water
I think there's something in the water

Mahalia (Verse 3)

Oh my god x 3
I've been gone a while now
Never thought I'd come back to this
Oh my gosh x 3
I heard we been falling down
Watchu mean we're falling down to this
I don't get this fuckery
This was never taught to me
I don't know how we got here
Oh so suddenly
Oh my god x 3
I'm stood at the border
And there's something in
This water

Somethings in the water
I think there's something in the water
Somethings in the water
I think there's something in the water

Kojey + Mahalia (Bridge)

It seems all we do is talk and never listen
To the fiction, clear as water that it's all
A masquerade. For the love of my addiction
Tire marks and 911's, hear no evil see no evil
In my lane. Same old story, pain and glory
Fit inside your categories. Numbers said I
Wouldn't see another day, what more can I say
I think the rain my guardian angel, fall from heaven
Just Gabriel. Come and take away the pain

Mahalia (Outro)

Somethings in the water
Bad things in the water
Something in my brothers
Something like no other
I can't put my finger on it
All I know is we don't want it
All I know is if we carry on then
We might fall. All I know is
If we carry on then we will lose
It all

Somethings in the water
