Drowning

[Intro]
We gon' need some drugs for the situation
Shout out to my plug, it's a lituation
Won't win it through litigation
All we ask is ventilation
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
I can't breathe, I can't breathe

[Hook]
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right? When the real holds you down, you supposed to drown right?
Wait, wait, that don't sound right
Just wait, one second, that don't sound right
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
When the real holds you down, you supposed to drown right?
Wait, wait, that don't sound right
Just wait, one second, that don't (Sound right)

[Verse 1]
I was high and I was startin' to lose focus
Then I stumbled in the water, I was trippin', I was chokin'
Saying, "I can't breathe"
Yeah, I can't breathe
Started floatin' way out in the open
'Fore I knew it I was driftin' in the middle of the ocean
Saying, "I can't breathe"
Yeah, I can't breathe
Started wailin', started flailin', I was splashing
Waves crashing all around me, felt the passion of the water
Saying, "I can't breathe"
Yeah, I can't breathe

[Hook]
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right?
Wait, wait, that don't sound right
Just wait, one second, that don't sound right
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right?
When the real holds you down, you supposed to drown, right?
Wait, that don't sound right
Just wait, one second, that don't sound right

[Verse 2]
Dial tone on my hotline, it don't bling much
Sing songs like Tubman, young Steven Morris, I ain't seen much
Just a couple motherfuckers tryna rape the culture
Tell the vultures I don't need lunch, it's like morse code
Gotta be in touch to communicate it to the people, love heals all
Best get your immunization, that THC
So we smoking in here like we fumigating
For the fuckboys, too much truth in me
I don't trust niggas, I ain't preaching at you
I don't touch boys, brought the baggage with me
Like a bus boy, I don't need tips
You could see mines
Rap Genius, you could read mines in between lines
Yeah, they act genius but the way society is set up
Almost like they read minds
You heard Alchemy, boy I'm Magneto, they can't read mines
Niggas bark loud
Talkin' revolution, when the waves come, they turn feline
I been turnin' tricks in the coldest part
Of the deepest water like a sea lion, you could see why

[Refrain]
We gon' need some drugs for the situation
Shout out to my plug, it's a lituation
Won't win it through litigation
All we ask is ventilation
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
I can't breathe, I can't breathe

[Hook]
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right? When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown, right?
Wait, wait, that don't sound right
Just wait one second, that don't sound right

[Bridge]
When the real, hold you down, you supposed to drown
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown
When the real hold you down, you supposed to drown
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
No no no no no no no no no no no no, oww!
I was high and I was startin' to lose focus
Then I stumbled in the water, I was trippin', I was chokin'
Saying, "I can't breathe"
Yeah, I can't breathe
(I can't breathe with this muh'fuckin' flag round my neck)
Started floatin' way out in the open
'Fore I knew it, I was driftin' in the middle of the ocean
Saying, "I can't breathe"
(I can't breathe with this muh'fuckin' flag round my neck)
Yeah, I can't breathe
Started wailin', started flailin', I was splashing
Waves crashing all around me, felt the passion of the water
Saying, "I can't breathe"
(I can't, I can't, I can't breathe with this muh'fuckin' flag round my neck)
Yeah, I can't breathe

[Outro]
We gon' need some drugs for the situation
Shout out to my plug, it's a lituation
Won't win it through litigation
All we ask is ventilation (Oww!)
We gon' need some drugs (love) for the situation
Shout out to my plug, it's a lituation
Won't win it through litigation
All we ask is ventilation
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
