About This Track

Future anchors 'Ocean' in the accumulated weight of loss. The track opens with an image of grief so vast it could fill a body of water, then moves through a catalogue of specific absences: a cousin unseen for years, a friend in federal prison, a neighbourhood rider killed. The song doesn't generalise these deaths into metaphor. It names them, locates them in place (700 Block, Lil Mexico, Decatur), and lets them accumulate without resolution. What emerges is a portrait of survival as a kind of haunting. Future moves between street life and its consequences with a flatness that makes the emotional weight heavier. He's happy, he's made money, he's bought cars and jewellery, but the refrain keeps returning: so many tears, I could fill up an ocean. The contradiction isn't resolved. It simply sits there, the price of staying alive when so many around you haven't.

"OCEAN" is a track by Future, from the album MIXTAPE PLUTO, released 20th September 2024. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

OCEAN

[Intro]

I got enough tears to fill the ocean for all these losses took in this shit

[Verse 1]

Got a cousin I ain't seen in years, when we came up, sleepin' on the same bed

And my main dog maxed in the fed, kept my lil' one names off warfare

Junior Boss went out, his gun blowin', always said he'd take a nigga with him

Rider squad goin' on a rampage, 700 Block kill niggas, madman (Murk)

We gotta fill up this pain, it ain't no comparing what made niggas feel (700)

Lil' homie just threw back three pills, he starvin' for bodies, he ready to go kill (Yeah)

Hide the Draco, the TEC match the weather (Woo)

Red tomato, tonight is gettin’ fatal (Grr)

Had the powder goin' crazy in Decatur

Had the stylist copyin' me and Abel

Man, this loyalty rap shit is real

You hold on a nigga, you fly in like J Bo (Hey)

Taking India all of my pesos (Hey)

Had to pop me a bean, pour some Tris (Yeah)

Took some niggas off that I forget

Hope the karma don't catch up again

To the DA, he done brought up a text

Everything tens or fours or checks

My doggy was slidin', I was still on a jet

Thought of my granny, my tears on my chest

Been with them killers since I was a jit

Raised in Lil Mexico, niggas in trenches

Tell 'em fuck 12, addicted to steppin'

I know that gutter shit run through my flesh (I know that)

Don't speak on my fam 'cause it'll get tense

Ho leakin' my name, I might get her spint

I'm runnin' my hood from a whole 'nother state now, Skyami the playground

I done ran up a check, I done bought me a cake now, I can go buy a case now

All the shit I done did to come up out of state now, plus a nigga get laid down

Soon as Josh got out, gave him bag of that blue shit

Couple Cubans, some rocks, and some new shit

Plenty hundreds, don't know what to do with 'em

I was happy my bitch got a new nigga

I'm a street nigga, I'll never be cool with 'em

Ho get out of pocket, nothin' to do with her

Plugged you like a socket, kept it true with you (Freeband, Freeband Gang)

[Chorus]

So many tears, I could fill up an ocean

'Fore the fame came, I was already in motion

And some my young niggas play, best believe niggas soakin', yeah

Out of state, up a stash, two hundred, I'm coastin', yeah

[Verse 2]

Can't forget about Man, he was there before all this, yeah

Uncle Snoopy got killed, he the reason I'm an artist, yeah

I was posted on the corner, I was goin' my hardest, yeah

Walk you down in broad day, niggas know where my heart at, yeah

On the avenue, yellin' out, "354 shit," nigga, kick in your door shit

I was servin' my auntie when she was a dope head just to go and cop Dolce

And my shirt button open when I do this, I'm focused, you can feel my emotions

Get to trippin' on niggas, I know I'm the chosen 'cause when I was the brokest

I'll go solo on a mission, a nigga gettin' active

Nigga ain't never gon' bap 'bout it

Cooked a four-way right up at the crack house

Any problems with niggas, gon' crash out

Cooked that nigga, we gave him a smackdown

When I send 'em, I know they gon' tell shit

Out the kennel, my dog like a hell-pit

Left me dead, I survived, but you left me

Every day, I preach self-destruction

Don't come lookin' for me at the wrong time

Got a thirty like Curry right past nine

Fuck with G, niggas know I'm gon' frontline

Sit on niggas 'fore we get 'em hunted down

Realest shit ever said, ain't no punchline

[Chorus]

So many tears, I could fill up an ocean

'Fore the fame came, I was already in motion

And some my young niggas play, best believe niggas soakin', yeah

Out of state, up a stash, two hundred, I'm coastin', yeah
