Текст песни Swim - SPM

[Intro:]
I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean, turned around & said "Swim"
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kickin' 'cause a person only floats when he's dead.

If I had one wish, It wouldn't be wealth
It would be that if we could just love ourselves
'Cause every day it's like we kill a million dreams
& It seems everybody on different teams
I don't mean to get deep, I'm just speakin' the truth
We in a 2-bed trailer with a leak in the roof
I ate potatoes every way you could ever make'em
When your hungry gotta use your imagination
My mom did her best, she would hug & kiss me
Even though we had more fuckin' mice than Disney
I still had some polo's & plenty new draws
While she was livin' life with the same two bras
& Lightning strikes like Garth say thunder rolls
Life is cold like an Eskimo in summer clothes
I suffer softly, but never let nothin' stop me
& I miss my little girl like somebody shot me.

They walk on me until I die
Take me to die so now they'll come around. [Repeated in background]

I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean, turned around & said "Swim"
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kickin' 'cause a person only floats when he's dead.

I be prison made cross, fuck diamonds & jewels
Still flyer then Jordan when he was runnin' with bulls
So many shots had missed, so many cops was pissed
So many songs I have written in the past on this
It's alot of imposters try to tell you the same.
But How the fuck can I explain? No one knows my pain
From the cord on my navel I was a G from the cradle
I don't snort 'cause they say that bitch Caine killed Abel
I'm not sure you understand it but I must express it
Santa Claus is on heroine, there ain't no presents
& Mom all this shit makes my eyes so watery
Now I understand why you tried to win the lottery
We gon' make it I promise, don't let the memories haunt us
I remember we was at the bus stop in pajamas
Tryin' to run from a home that brought so many tears
Bad luck like we must've broke a thousand mirrors.

They walk on me until I die
Take me to die so now they'll come around. [Repeated in background]

I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean, turned around & said "Swim"
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kickin' 'cause a person only floats when he's dead.

They walk on me until I die
Take me to die so now they'll come around. [Repeated in background]

I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean, turned around & said "Swim"
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kickin' 'cause a person only floats when he's dead.
