When you here in the water   You feel like it's sorta    Releasin' the tension, distress and disorder   is big in America   Stephanie Erica, both of them suffer from livin' in here   because   livin' is very competetive:   hasslin' creditors, hazardous accidents   drivin' with negligence   too many beverages   people got too may things on they letter says   TV's deadliest professin' the ugliest war, war, war, WAR   what the hell you keep on killin me for?   please come over and bend down low   let me tell you what little I know    and if it's worth somethin'   spread it indeed like shit and vomit that's under your feet      I was born in a pot boilin' black and hot   waitin' to be tasted and rappin' a lot.   But justice would not come and eat my flesh -   instead, I had poverty to feed my stress,   until my life became an ode to the gun -   not needed, like a overcoat to the sun.   So, I thought I was just made to exist;    not to live or change and resist.   But fear will have you believin' fear -   Paralyzed have you bleedin' tears.   This is the therapy needed, so use it.   Music is water; you know what my proof is? (What?)   People need music like they need excuses (Ha)   People need water like Kanye needs Jesus.      So wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   wash it down (wash it down)   *gradually fades, continues in background*      (Spoken) I know you stressin': this is a little meditation for you to relax,    and jump in the pool, and, you know, sink and sink!      My people drum on water,   drink on water,   live on water,    die for water.      My people drum on water,   drink on water,   live on water,    die for water.
