In The Water

{Verse 1)

I ain’t tryna' be the one you talk to
And I tryna' be the one you walk to
Everybody want to know when I go but that’s fine
I just wanna show'em to the light (oh)

It’s fine when the people are talkin'
I’m keepin' them walkin'
The beat is a coffin
I’m on a roll when the beat is a rocket
I flow in the pocket
I stop & unlock it a pop & a rocket and that’s how it goes (oh)

I ain’t really wanna go like this (no)
I ain’t really wanna shine like this (no)
God gave me this gift & I’m gonna go and show them this
That’s the way to go & I'mma flow
Tryin' to stop me, yeah I’m on a roll
On the boat and yeah He’s in control
Words are cold but they don’t hold my soul

My tongue is a weapon a lethal injection I’m nothin' but raw
Trying to make on this vision that people don’t see & I’m tired of seeing it all
You don’t understand
Tryna' make a man
Seein' what I can
Time to take a stand!
I don’t need a fan to tell me when to land
You can lend a hand, tell him God's the man

Standing on sinking sand, hoping to breathe I can’t under the seas again
You do not see the pain
Listen and see the name Jesus of Nazareth help us come breathe again
I’m down on my knees again

[Chorus 1}

I feel like I’m, drowning in water
My soul is among, demons & monsters
And no matter what, they cannot bother
My soul is on fire, inside the water, I’m inside the water

{Verse 2)

What they want from me?
I'm broken can't you see?
And the more they ask of me
The harder it gets to breathe (yeah)
All you guys wanna be the best but nobody wanna work!
You can take that to church (uh)
Prolly hit you where it hurts (yeah)

I live for no one else but the one who sits highest on the shelf
I can't impress you cause I am through tryna' be somebody else
Oh where'd I put my wealth?
Money can't control my health
My heart has never felt
All the love You went & dealt! (uh)

All this happiness that surrounds me man, I just wanna feel it!
All I see is dark, open up the shades just so I can see it!
Tryna' be the man but don't understand why you eyein' me
I've sinned as many times as the steps that you took to get up to Calvary (yeah)

So why is you callin' me? (callin' me)
Hung up on the phone when you called on me (called on me)
Leave a prayer at the voicemail
Signal weak like a Nextel
Talkin' raw like I'm on a roll (roll)
Top of the class like I'm honor roll (roll)
I gotta go mom, I'm catchin' hell
Say a prayer at the wishin' well (say it)

[Chorus 2]

I feel like I'm, falling off balance but I am sober
Painted in black so in need of a savior
Can't save myself from the world & the danger
I am a stranger, inside the water
