Текст песни Shark in the Water - The MSB

Aye if you knew there were sharks in the water would you take a swim
Swim with the sharks man you trippin
Aye bro that's us every day if you think about it

I seen injustice that no one has seen
I seen a gun with no love in between
I ain't a dog but they try put me down the way pets go to sleep
Grew up believing being stopped in traffic was really routine
And Facing the barrel was like one of them
Unfortunate things that happened to good human beings
And I wasn't being singled out for my particular color or scheme
And life was still a masterpiece when My color was seen
Till I asked a few more human beings if it happened to them
As much as it happened to me
They said not even close
Theres a ocean between
Yea
I got taste of the truth and felt my innocence leave
I felt better when my thoughts were naive
I felt better when I thought they were sharing the grief
I hate to feel like I'm Dirty when I know that I'm clean
Shook me straight to my core
Had me doubtin my genes
Shit got me Emotional and that's sayin the least
At first I was speechless Now I'm spillin the beans
I was Keeping all my my plays and now I'm playing for keeps
Mr King took to the streets and we followed like sheep
He wasn't violent but violence put him to sleep
Cause he was tryin to make reality look more like his dreams
Yea
Ain't no bias when I speak
Yea
It's just the reality we see
Yea
White man scream at police
That's when they callin free speech
Black man doing the same thing
He Making a scene
Run with a ball in his hand
He makin the team
Run to the law with his hands
They might just shoot at his spleen
The Country split like gymnast At Olympics
The Country split like atoms by a chemist
One side hide behind a gimmick
Sayin All lives matter and it's back and forth like tennis
We just tryna see the end of this
If all live matter Own the premises
Why can't black lives reap the benefits
They claim they generous But Since the genesis prejudice has been the nemesis
Yea
Truth hurts and they ain't tryna hear it
God given is my appearance
Why do they fear it
They say my name like I gotta clear it
That hurts my spirit
I'm not guilty but the good ones don't run interference
I can't breath my eyes are tearin
Instead of booing I hear them cheerin
Screaming for my mom and she can't hear me
I'm goin viral as cameras spear me
I pay the price like German engineering
All I wanted was a good life
Kissed my loved one and then said good night
I wasn't ready for the torment
No knock written on the warrant
No knock when they broke the door in
Who knew our eyes wouldn't see mornin
All I want was a good night
All I got was my family mournin
All I wanted was a nice run
All I heard was gunshot
Last thing I saw was the shotgun
Claimed I was a criminal but I'm not one
That's how our recent history look
But won't be seen in no history book
Tryna get back what the predators took
Who in they right mind would let a shark off the hook
