Anderson .Paak, BJ The Chicago Kid - The Waters lyrics

Yes, Lord, yeah

Tried to tell niggas, in 2012, nigga
Working hand to hand and no avail
Volume one was too heavy for you frail niggas
So I got lean like codeine and pills
It's the visionary, in the vintage Chevy
It's been a while but, wow, you still care
Free Nats 'til they pass out obituaries
In bold caps, "your bitch-ass was not there"
And I can do anything but move backwards
The hardest thing is to
Keep from being distracted
My big sister still claiming me on them taxes
Tell Uncle Sam I just need
A second to add this gave my mama ten racks
And she packed and went to Chumash with it
Quadruple the worth and give me half of it
Half of it I took in the
Back of the air mattress
A quarter stash was stashed in a
Box with the Air Maxes
The rest got lost in Saks with my wifey
No BM whack niggas dropping links in my DM
Bad bitches up and down a nigga TL
I'm glad that you finally made it
To the future but you're late
And the price is through
The muthafuckin' roof if you want you could
Wait outside the building
I ain't takin' no more meetings

Stepped in the waters the water was cold
Chilled my body but not in my soul

I bring you greetings from the
First church of Boom Baptists
United Fellowship of Free Nationals
Residing pastor is Paak
And the first lady is a bad bitch
With slanted eyelids and thick ass
Sunglasses, Martin Luther King fan
For you bitch niggas
Sweating on my Patent Leathers
Pressure turned their feather weight
Into a Cinderella i ain't seen the ground in
Days since I grew propellers
We'll do one better word to the liquor that
Killed my grandpa liver
I know you finally look proud
A nigga smiling to every hundred niggas that
Came and gone missing
Only a handful will go the distance
I swear I seen this shit coming as if
I was living up under the plumbing
While niggas was riffing and mumbling
'bout what they could do
I was cooking gumbo whipping the voodoo
I was in the jungle running with Zulu's
We was looking past the struggle while
Life was moving so fast
You had to be sharp as a Ginsu
To the top of the food group
Doing what I want and how I should, too

Stepped in the waters the water was cold
Chilled my body but it didn't touch my soul
Stepped in the waters the water was cold
Chilled my body but it didn't touch my soul

Ladies and gentlemen
The most fantastic race in history
Nicky Door is trying to explain to the crowd
That what made this race possible
Is underneath this hood take a look at this
