Above Water Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, uh (West)

[Verse 1]
I couldn't picture me performin' on them corner store mornings (Nah)
The streets still excite you, honestly, the media got borin' (Borin')
We be out tourin', plenty trees keep me out soarin'
BBs on foreigns, Harlem nigga breeze through my morass (Huh)
I speak with the homeless, I relate to people that's lonely (Uh-huh)
I'm here without comma, I feel like Sensei in these moments (Nah)
Who got you open mama? Tote a llama with no persona (No)
Coca make 'еm line up (Line up), if it's butter, that shit from China (Ayy)
Lеt the streets explain it, no more breakin' down with my name, and (No more)
Avoid arraignments, body in the trunk with a blanket (Uh)
I feel the strangest if no money exchanges (Big)
I know these kids that paint sniff that leave these niggas brainless (Bah)
Hoppin' out the Vanquish, got the Naismith for the way I ball
I hate to stall, let's get a murder, I'll just make the call (Uh)
AV tour, you couldn't look at this aura (Nah)
Before I crash, I see a glimpse of my daughters, this shit is water (Water), uh
[Chorus]
Tryna keep my head above water
I'm just tryna keep my head above water, a lot of niggas drownin' (Drownin'), uh
Tryna get this bread for my daughters
I just hope the witness don't say they saw us, 'cause they gon' have to find me (I'm gone, nigga), uh
Tryna keep my head above water (Uh)
I'm just tryna keep my head above water, a lot of niggas drownin' (A lot of niggas), uh
Tryna get this bread for my daughters (I ain't get it)
I just hope the witness don't say they saw us, 'cause they gon' have to find me

[Verse 2]
I just hope the witness don't say he saw me (Uh-huh) I just wanna run the family like Paulie (Paulie)
I just hope my niggas paid attention to the ways they change for my story (Ah, shit)
I just wanna turn this pain into glory (Pain)
I just want the money (The money)
I just wish all the project babies could live in mansions (Mansions)
I just wish that the judge would get rid of king enhancements (King)
I can't lie, I got so numb to hearin' ambulances (Numb)
Like every hour, I hear sirens, shouldn't make you panic (Panic)
I kept my poise when I was 'noid like I was playin' poker (Paranoid)
They tryna trick us out our spot, can't let a lane provoke you (Can't do it)
Just tryna walk the righteous path, it's like a angel chose 'em (Chose 'em)
You can't control 'em, they can't fold 'em, this forever rollin' (Rollin')
For all of our homies that ain't make it, y'all my motivation (Y'all my niggas)
No explanations, demonstrations made are more than basic (Way more)
The shit we facin', hold your own, just 'cause you know it's sacred (Sacred)
Just keep it solid, never switch up, nigga, no occasion (Solid), uh
[Chorus]
Tryna keep my head above water (All I'm tryna do)
I'm just tryna keep my head above water, a lot of niggas drownin' (A lot, nigga), uh
Tryna get this bread for my daughters (Tryna get this money)
I just hope the witness don't say he saw us, 'cause they gon' have to find me (Have to find me), uh
Tryna keep my head above water (Uh)
I'm just tryna keep my head above water, a lot of niggas drownin', uh
Tryna get this bread for my daughters (Hope)
I just hope the witness don't say he saw us, 'cause they gon' have to find me

[Outro]
