navajo - water from the tap lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]

would you believe when i got my first piece of heat
it was to squeeze on my own dome, and be at peace
finally, my release, my escape from these streets
the pressures at home, due to school blowing up the phone
i was, always alone, i’m staring at this chrome
silence the tremors in my hand, d-mn i had a plan
why can’t i, follow through with the cowards way out
all the pain in the world would be gone, that’s no doubt
maybe it was, the rebel inside, that said f-ck the world b
yo, ayo you gotta stay alive, maybe i was a bit crazy
like my aunt when she lived in her car
we survived, due to the pride, that griped us hard
some nights i felt like i would starve
locked out the house i slept sitting up against a wall
underneath the stars, i walked stepping in footholes in the snow
froze from my clothes to my chromosomes writing poems

[hook]
cause that same pride barred me from asking for help
i gotta build my own wealth, had to do for myself
no more mom struggling, or hiding money from the government
f-ck water from the tap, that’s the reason i rap
for so long, i been a black rat trapped
broke my new age shackles, nat turner is back
with a burner to yo back, my n-ggas on the attack
hybrid noise boys poised to make short work of the whack

[verse 2]

they won’t know my presence felt, til the damage is dealt
the soldiers who knelt, the finest, daggers i smelt
in h-lls kitchen, scr-ping devil’s pie from these dishes
my wish is, these evils that i’m spitting
will have me living just, with a woman i can trust
a dutch in my clutch, far from semi’s that bust
or crazy n-ggas in cuffs, screaming he seeing demons after smoking some dust
some say i’m too d-mn young, to see so much
but i’m slowly going blind so i appreciate it all
the good and the bad, this is my rise and my fall
i was, running with rhymes before i was able to crawl
maybe i was fated to share my journey with y’all
over these snares, bleeding hearts prepare, this world ain’t fair
if you look into my eye’s you’ll find, a portal to my mind
where this proof resides, no fiction in my diction
it’s for truth i ride, let that doubt subside

[hook]
cause that same pride barred me from asking for help
i gotta build my own wealth, had to do for myself
no more mom struggling, or hiding money from the government
f-ck water from the tap, that’s the reason i rap
for so long, i been a black rat trapped
broke my new age shackles, nat turner is back
with a burner to yo back, my n-ggas on the attack
hybrid noise boys poised to make short work of the whack

[verse 3]

wish i had a silver spoon when i was torn from the womb
mom said, “gotta conform if you wanna eat food”
but that’s surviving, f-ck surviving, i wanna be thriving
that’s why i started writing, that’s why i started rhyming
buddha igniting got me feeling enlightened
lightning, striking my temple
minds tremble when i pilot this pencil, but they won’t give me a lane
either a roscoe to your brain, or i’m rocking a stage
either it’s writing on a page, or eulogies recited at a
unmarked grave, usually i’m well behaved
but notoriety in my society, got police eyeing me
no one siding with me, b-tches lying to me
never riding clean, rarely sober
no toaster in the holster but a hawk’ll poke holes through
ya clothes brah, flow colder, than that storm that caught is october
i hold a microphone until the f-cking shows over

[hook]
cause that same pride barred me from asking for help
i gotta build my own wealth, had to do for myself
no more mom struggling, or hiding money from the government
f-ck water from the tap, that’s the reason i rap
for so long, i been a black rat trapped
broke my new age shackles, nat turner is back
with a burner to yo back, my n-ggas on the attack
hybrid noise boys poised to make short work of the whack
i’m mean that
