Wailers
I'll jump in, swim around for while
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
Think about all the things I thought that I knew
Looking back I realized I was talking with you
You said you were old but to me you were new
I said I was green but to you I was blue
Sit back and talk about the things I could do
Hit back and talk about the things I could lose
What's there to gain if you don't got a move?
Your shot will leave if you don't ever shoot
Walk along the path, see the sunset on the beach
Thought about all the different places I will reach
Thought about all the different people I will meet
Then realized right there that it all comes down to me
Thought about all the different futures I will see
Thought about all the different people I will be
Will the new tech do away with privacy
And in the end will I ever rest in peace finally
I'll jump in, swim around for while
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
Sand feels good when it's underneath your feet
Feels a lot worse when it's in between your sheets
Don't know history then you're bound to repeat
If you did know history then you could've made this beat
Sound of your life when you're walking down the street
Feel a little heavy when you're underneath this heat
But it might melt that stress right off of your cheek
And stay down here as you float away to peaks
I'll jump in, swim around for while
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
Think about all the things I thought that I knew
Looking back I realized I was talking with you
You said you were old but to me you were new
I said I was green but to you I was blue
Sit back and talk about the things I could do
Hit back and talk about the things I could lose
What's there to gain if you don't got a move?
Your shot will leave if you don't ever shoot
Walk along the path, see the sunset on the beach
Thought about all the different places I will reach
Thought about all the different people I will meet
Then realized right there that it all comes down to me
Thought about all the different futures I will see
Thought about all the different people I will be
Will the new tech do away with privacy
And in the end will I ever rest in peace finally
I'll jump in, swim around for while
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
Sand feels good when it's underneath your feet
Feels a lot worse when it's in between your sheets
Don't know history then you're bound to repeat
If you did know history then you could've made this beat

Feel a little heavy when you're underneath this heat

And stay down here as you float away to peaks
I'll jump in, swim around for while
See what goes on every time you go to smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
Laying on my back as we drift on down the Nile
I'll jump in, swim around for a while
See what goes wrong every time you don't smile
I can't fill your shoes but I sure can swim a mile
All you see is blood when you're swimming in denial
