[Hook]
Way back when Fard asked Elijah
On this earth how many square miles are
Land and how much is water?
Allah let me draw it up fast forward
How much is water?
How much is water?
How much is water?
How much is water?
Way back when Fard asked Elijah
On this earth how many square miles are
Land and how much is water?
Allah let me draw it up fast forward
How much is water?
How much is water?
How much is water?
Allow me to draw it up
[Verse 1]
Two questions that I’m asking
For my little old five year plan
1: How much is water?
2: How much is land?
Geography’s not what I’m thinking
I mean real estate and for drinking
You’d never guess which one’s more premium
Like it ain't our whole means and medium
Tank level on the fresh been sinking
Before it hits E let that sink in
They say don’t shit where you eat
But where you sip is stinking
Not just how much is water?
How much of that water is clean?
For your meat to live in and your drink
Tub and kitchen sink
Whole earth three quarters water
Can’t even get a whole bottle with three quarters
Whole body three quarters water
You literally buy yourself
Feel like I’m all by myself
How are we all by ourselves?
All standing right by each other
Pulling bottled tap water off shelves
Y'all talking about save this planet
But the planet’s gonna be just fine
Man might not be surviving
Beyond that new horizon
Sea level just keep on rising
This weather is not surprising
Mother nature is undefeated
Think she feel like compromising?
Just like these corporations
More powerful than half these nations
Community, humanity, holistic
Sounds like hating
Get money fuck patience
Got money still got no patience
Preying on they patrons
Think they feel like negotiating
Charge poor what they don’t have to get what they can’t live without
Tax your spot and pump it out
Front like they really gonna work it out
Hide your lakes, hide your wells, hide your springs, shit hide your hydro
That’s where they go to hide the toxins
Mad drugs in your water cycle
On accident and on purpose
The more you know the more nervous
Can’t even keep track of what’s in there
Your government at your service
Fuck your lawn, fuck your golf course, fuck your fountain, fuck your dam
When we fighting over water like oil you’ll understand
Man!

How much is water?
How much is water?
How much is water?
[Verse 2]
Look
Everybody rapping
But only few can flow
Among that few that flow really though how much is water?
Among that chosen water really though how much is fresh?
Crystal clear in your ear not that wrong food pumping fear
I see some of y'all sipping that Kool Aid
A lot of us love that grape soda
Some think there drink is the bomb though
With a plastic grenade full of quarter water
Like what the hell is that blue flavor? White bark raspberries ain't neon bright
Some of y'all chug Idiocracy
Bragging about the electrolytes
I mean drink whatever you want
I’d just be sure to drink what I need too
All this music is food for thought
Watch what these rappers feed you
How much is water really worth if when you don’t pay for it evaporates?
Free download swimming upstream
Trying to wake me up from my American dream?
My craft man? My skill trade? This ain't no get rich quick scheme
This hard work
It’s a labor of love
This art work
From the heavens above
That wisdom getting passed down
But then passed up like pass over
Don’t take these flows for granted
Even if my cup runneth over
I told y'all on that “Half A Glass”
Always room for improvement
If you don’t want your assets frozen apply some heat to this movement
Your favorite artist be moonlighting you shrug your shoulders
It’s just the tide?
Well if you let that well run dry then maybe your thirst is justified
