heavy water - mankind (sciryl & !llumin@te) lyrics
[verse 1: gia shakur]
it’s been a while since i smelled like pepper
if you let the world lay you down
you’ll come back up as a corpse
smelling of mum flowers, stale water, and turpentine
a gold nameplate chain, engraved la morgues
now i smell of pepper
ginger beer and cloves
this magical n*gga b*tch breathes
bleeds
all i know is the wind—even with a clipped wing
i l!ck my private parts
i l!ck the parts of myself i’ve never l!cked before
it took me a long time to learn how to l!ck my wounds
and one day, i’ll dye my fingers in the tradition of my blood
[hook: mankind and trezure empire]
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at me like
“you can’t get in my boat,” get in my boat
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at us like
“you can’t get in my boat,” but get in my boat
[verse 2: sciryl]
heavy water, this is not for the kinda, sort*ofs—uh!
this is disorder, p*ss*poor daddy warbucks
rick ross doing crossfit, walking the plank
we’re going overboard like, “aw sh*t,” and now it’s
coming back around. you hear that sound? that’s the f*cking splash
blunt ashes and a l*st for cash
running back—f*ck a pass. there’s no passes here
and volunteer ass*whippings with your gun and catch. get that
sh*t clear. it’s mankind in a mask, my dear
i put it together, it’s rap ikea, hotbox
matchbox steamer*backslash*crackspot ether
jab ali—ask latifah. i set it off in his place
i know the law. i’m not matlock either
hold it down, no padlocks either. ankle lock, ken
shamrock fifa, slave block, cam’ron feature
ran fine in a pair of landmine sneakers
i can’t find peace in this land i breathe in, i walked on
water, and now i can’t stop sinking. mankind
[hook: mankind and trezure empire]
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at me like
“you can’t get in my boat,” get in my boat
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at us like
“you can’t get in my boat,” but get in my boat
[bridge: sciryl]
i can’t find peace in this land i breathe in, walked on
water, and now i can’t stop sinking. mankind
[verse 3: !llumin@te]
heavy water, waterwork levies for
thirty pieces of silver surf reporters, quarter ounce
of sour, sour patch kids getting devoured, white
supremacist elected into power, thomas saint
patrick day baptized by archbishop egan. who’s
on deck? lucille and negan, saviors and
survivors, big mac, macbook, macgyvers
salvador dalai lama saliva, cocoa b*tter
kisses, coconut oil over your stitches
waterboard games swimming with fishes. you know what
they say: america the home of the brave
there’s two choices: roe versus wade. mankind
[hook: mankind and trezure empire]
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at me like
“you can’t get in my boat,” get in my boat
black bodies in the water
in a place where they cannot float
white folks looking at us like
“you can’t get in my boat,” but get in my boat
