drowning - mick jenkins lyrics
[directed by nathan smith]
[intro]
we gon’ need some drugs for the situation
shout out to my plug, its a lituation
won’t we need the litigation
all we ask is ventilation
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
[hook]
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
wait, wait, that don’t sound right
just wait, one second, that don’t sound right
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
wait, wait, that don’t sound right
just wait, one second, that don’t (sound right)…
[verse 1]
i was high and i was startin’ to lose focus
then i stumbled in the water, i was trippin’, i was chokin’
i can’t breathe
yeah, i can’t breathe
started floatin’ way out in the open
‘fore i knew it i was driftin’ in the middle of the ocean
saying, i can’t breathe
yeah, i can’t breathe
started whalin’, started flailin’
i was splashing, waves crashing all around me
felt the p-ssion of the water
saying, i can’t breathe
yeah, i can’t breathe
[hook]
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
wait, wait, that don’t sound right
just wait, one second, that don’t sound right
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
wait, that don’t sound right
just wait, one second, that don’t sound right
[verse 2]
dial tone on my hotline, it don’t bling much
sing songs like tubman
young stephen morris, i ain’t seen much
just a couple motherf-ckers tryna rape the culture
tell the vultures i don’t need lunch
it’s like morse code
gotta be in touch to communicate it to the people
love heals all
best get your immunization, that thc
so we smoking in here like we fumigating
for the f-ckboys too much truth in me
i don’t trust n-gg-s
i ain’t preaching at you
i don’t touch boys
brought the baggage with me
like a bus boy i don’t need tips
you could see mines
rap g-nius, you could read mines
in between lines
yeah they act g-nius but the way society is set up
almost like they read minds
you heard alchemy, boy i’m magneto
they can’t read mines
n-gg-s bark loud
talkin’ revolution, when the waves come they turn feline
i been turnin’ tricks
in the coldest part of the deepest water like a sealion, you could see why
[refrain]
we gon’ need some drugs for the situation
shout out to my plug, its a lituation
won’t we need the litigation
all we ask is ventilation
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
[hook]
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right? when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown right?
wait, wait, that don’t sound right
just wait one second, that don’t sound right
[bridge]
when the real, hold you down, you supposed to drown
when the real, ohh hold you down, you supposed to drown
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown
when the real hold you down, you supposed to drown
i can’t breathe i can’t breathe no no no no no no no no no no no no auwwwww!
i was high and i was startin’ to lose focus
then i stumbled in the water, i was trippin’, i was chokin’
saying, i can’t breathe
yeah, i can’t breathe (i can’t breathe with this muhf-ckin’ flag round my neck)
started floatin’ way out in the open
‘fore i knew it i was driftin’ in the middle of the ocean
saying, i can’t breathe (i can’t breathe with this muhf-ckin’ flag round my neck), yeah, i can’t breathe
started whalin’, started flailin’
i was splashing, waves crashing all around me
felt the p-ssion of the water
saying, i can’t breathe (i can’t, i can’t breathe with this muhf-ckin’ flag round my neck)
yeah, i can’t breathe
[outro]
we gon’ need some drugs for the situation
shout out to my plug, its a litiation
won’t we need the litigation
all we ask is ventilation
we gon’ need some drugs for the situation
shout out to my plug, its a lituation
won’t we need the litigation
all we ask is ventilation
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
i can’t breathe, i can’t breathe
