Swimm

[Intro] When the light's lookin' dim And your life's on the limb It's, uh, sink or swim (My nigga) Yeah, sink or swim (My nigga) When the light's lookin' dim And your life's on the limb It's, uh, sink or swim (My nigga) Yeah, sink or swim [Verse 1] No faint of heart, it's obvious who playin' hard The outcome of how you live depends on how you start Make your mark or fall in line and play your part Never had a chance to deal a hand, just played the cards On God, some would rather go fraud And ride on every other wave like the Coast Guards It's all a scheme (Uh), family couldn't meet they means Uncles and cousins who was too asleep to see they dreams We still make the memories on them failed nights Real life, close to jail nights Them what the hell nights (Ayy), runnin' red lights (Ayy) Cousin' with the Cutlass with the busted tail lights Psh, and the cops here, damn [Pre-Chorus] All burnt out with no place to go You got no choice but to face your soul Money equals time, ain't no wastin' mine Before you step up, think twice before you take that dive [Chorus] When the light's lookin' dim (Lookin' dim) And your life's on the limb (On the limb) It's, uh, sink or swim (Sink or swim, my nigga) Yeah, sink or swim (Sink or swim, my nigga) When the light's lookin' dim (Lookin' dim) And your life's on the limb (On the limb) It's, uh, sink or swim (Sink or swim, my nigga) Yeah, sink or swim [Verse 2] Indigo child, oh, how you tell the signs The revolution rumor will not be televised? Prepare me for my purpose is what I often tell to God Just plug me for my labor's what I try to tell my mom See, that sneaker job only pays seven forty-five Three shifts a week, four to five hours at a time Thirty hours on one check, my nigga? I can divide To sum it up, all of this work ain't worth all of my pride These heirs, they came prepared for takin' all of my pie I deserve more than just a piece of dough My knuckles ashy, see, I needed dough Pops, the apple ain't fall far from the tree, fo' sho I'm really splashin' in the deep fo' sho Case you needs to know, nigga [Chorus] When the light's lookin' dim (Lookin' dim) And your life's on the limb (On the limb) It's, uh, sink or swim (Sink or swim, my nigga) Yeah, sink or swim (Sink or swim, my nigga) [Outro] Sink or swim, sink or swim
