Drowning

Unh

Drowning in Bills, but ain't swallowing pills

She look into the mir sometimes and wonder if this real

She working two jobs, cause she got two kids

Ain't shit baby daddy, who care less bout how they live

Ain't got no time alone, she can't get dolled up

Ain't got no friends on the weekend that she can call up

Them boys who come around speaking, easily call bluff

She know they ain't on shit, before they even walk up

Living on section 8, only section she be in

She can't afford to be outside, and party on no weekend

Shit getting critical

She feeling stressed with no relief, she smoking squares and drinking daily, she feel pitiful!

She never feels pretty, never get no mani pedi

These **** childish, can't never find man that's ready

She praying daily, see the preacher, this been weighing heavy

Need a solution soon or else, things could be getting messy

Yeah

He on the ball team, no relation to LaMelo

But he feel good enough that one day he gone get a medal

In high school now, so that's a long ways away

He from the hood, so he ain't soft, can see from how he play

He got some friends that's from the block who betting on his games

He got his Mom, ain't seen his pops awhile, I won't explain

Typical ad story when you from the hood, **** having kids, but have no intent to raise em like they should

Son average 30, he got offers from whatever schools

His grades decent, he never been ineligible

The crowd he round though definitely raising concerns

They in school but don't learn, they seem cool but they weren't

They support him and his dreams, but they really dead weight

They got beef in they teens, bound to catch a fed case

Hang around the Meat King, he told em it's a better way

But they reply like **** we don't have no talent, we ain't great

We wasn't born with all your height

Boy you standing 6'5, we couldn't focus in that school

We dropped out so we could survive

Now one day while making plays he came along with them to ride

It's a set up, they got raided, cops took everything they got!

But that hooper in the car, what the hell he doing here?

You know just what happened next, now this shit all on the news

Wanted acceptance from the streets, risked it all just to look cool

Lost his offers now he hoop for rec leagues, they done DROWNED

We can't swim, so we drown

We can't swim, so we drown, so we drown

We can't swim so instead of coming up, we go down

We can't swim so we drown, so we drown and I'm out!
