The Waters

[Intro]

You were never ready for the flow

[Verse 1]

When the rain don't fall so hard no more

And the bank won't take my card no more

But they ain't gon' pull my card neither

And they ain't gon' pull my squads either

Niggas spit shit, I hock ether

Stephen Hawking, no need for talking

Got a hawk's eye, but I can hardly see you

Talk's fly, pray you're not Aaliyah

I ain't trying to rock the boat, but the flow crazy

I paint pictures, but they're not baroque

More Scorsese, niggas made scores out of instrumentals

Nigga type a script with a pen and pencil

Use words from Scripps National Spelling Bee

Fuck is you telling me that didn't sound better

Spitting it simple? Fuck with me, famo

Ginger ale for your hoes

Not shit else, not even my dick

Man I got way too much on my mind

Got a little light bout as bright as my Bic

And y'all got way too much on the shine

Y'all niggas don't tell enough of the truth in the booth

And it's proof you ain't fucking with mine, sip

[Hook]

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

[Verse 2]

Started from the bottom of the map

Roll Tide at the end of the wave

In this bitch ballpoint strapped

Get back, this nigga got a pen to the page

Permanent marks, I'm a marksman, I never miss

Talk shit, that's a hint at your age

Big chain, that's a hint that it cage

They're saying you're sane, but I'm gone in 60 seconds on a verse, that's Mickalas Cage

Fuck with a black young man

I'm everything that it denotes

Shit comes straight from the heart, not a record exec in the back with a remote

Niggas gon' play their parts, save face on a face on the back of a C-note

Everybody wanna be the back of a D-Rose

But I can't go, Van Gogh how I handle

Paintbrush when I paint flows

Niggas in the club throwing pesos

Niggas on the block throwing pitch forks

And not from Barbados

I don't give a fuck how you rep your flag

Catch him in the cut when he roll his truth

And I don't give a fuck how you stuff your bags

Touch the sky, it's much more than trees

What can you tell me about your roots?

Spitting that truth like a cold white rapper, niggas gon' always need some proof

Niggas gon' always need some water, niggas gon' always seek the truth

Niggas gon' always want the messenger dead and they always need the proof

My God...

[Breakdown]

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

Niggas gon' always need some water, niggas gon' always speak the truth

Niggas gon' always want the messenger dead and they always want the proof

Niggas gon' always need the proof

Niggas gon' always need the proof

[Hook]

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

[Hook]

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Water more important than the gold

People for the gold

Everybody do it for the gold

People save your souls

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God for the waters, waters

Thank God
