Lyrics

Breast stroke, third up I’m racing in a relay
Slow pace, fast race I can hear them screaming
My momma told me to be a swimmer
Oh as cold as it could be - we better knew than shiver
 
Head down and swim
Pull, scoop, now kick, and extend
 
I’m hiding away, hoping she’ll say the water is code for a blanket
I might never get in - chlorine on my skin, my people weren’t made this shit
I’m a surf the sands of time, take it in stride, and most importantly warm
Where I’m feeling in frequency freedom to follow my family history coping with misery
Wet - tasted too salty, god made me fresh
Feeling a false sense of security taking a hold on me
I should be taking my goggles off, opening eyes
Heads up, swallowing pride
Pulling, scooping, bringing around this H20 that brings me down
 
Head down and swim
Pull, scoop, now kick, and extend
 
Like water I am transient
Not afraid to go
I feel like there’s something new
Wait out the storm
