Dirty Water 歌詞
Hold up, Hold up, Hold up
Yall gon get me bowed up
When that beat hit its like three kicks
And your knees up to your nose, huh
You knows us
Unashamed , Uno Uno Seis, whoa
Tatted on my skin, all up in your face, whoa
If I aint bout that live, then I aint really livin
But if you cant see my light then maybe I aint in it
Champagne, champagne, celebratin my campaign
I just dug a well in West Africa
But how many of my friends is African, huh?
No habla español, just show me tu baño
Aint trynna get to know you, Im too busy readin Daniel
Most segregated time of day is Sunday service
Now what you think that say about the God you worship?
First of all, I know it aint a song thats gon change the world
Theres no way
Its not a guilt trip, its a field trip thats gon last more than one day
What you thought, huh?
Faith aint bout no soft stuff
I heard you just went overseas, now come back home and boss up
[Hook:]
Buy a bottle for a fee, dirty water
Bodies floatin in the sea, dirty water
Blood flowin from the ground, dirty water, dirty water
Buy a bottle for a fee, dirty water
Bodies floatin in the sea, dirty water
Blood flowin from the ground, dirty water
Aint no filters in this town, dirty water
Worthless, worthless, 400 years we done heard that
My family came here on slave ships
Some herd cattle, some herd blacks
Know some of yall done heard that
My kin was treatedless than men
Thats why we raised to hate each other, cause we hate our skin
Lies you told about yourself that you dont realize
I must be a thief, she locked the doors when I was walking by
They must be whores cuz the master rapes them and leaves
The child
So dead beat daddy was taught to me way before my time
Now we extreme, buying fancy things like gold chains
Just pretty shackles, we still enslaved
Put em round your neck, cuz we still hangin
Hood preacher told em they should live as kings
You call him devil, he fightin for self esteem
Its hard to dream when your water aint clean
Now look at Lucifers scheme as how to be in a team
Blood in the ocean to these African streams
This dirty water aint nothin we havent seen
[Hook]
Buy a bottle for a fee, dirty water
Bodies floatin in the sea, dirty water
Blood flowin from the ground, dirty water, dirty water
Buy a bottle for a fee, dirty water
Bodies floatin in the sea, dirty water
Blood flowin from the ground, dirty water
Aint no filters in this town, dirty water
dirty water、dirty water、dirty water
[Hook]
