Nashbi - Drowning (feat. Jaye Newton)

Lately I been
Drowning, falling, weeping
Trying not to lose it and go off
The deep end
On God I been calling for Him
He speaking every time
Every time

I almost gave up on this world that we live in
Life is confusing although it's been written
People are heartless and evil and wicked
But I had belief in good will and forgiveness
I thought that always deep down there was love
Some people had less, some folks had enough
Some folks ain't have nothing, some folks had it rough
Soon I discovered that's not what it was
People are selfish and knowledge is power
Sheep are receptive as long as you're feeding them
Folks are deceptive and most are just cowards
Commanders are only as strong as you needing them
People don't know what they've lost till you leaving em
Children'll keep all the seeds that you leave in em
People don't know what they've lost till it's leaving em
Yeah, all these downhearted vibes I said I'll fend for myself
I can't rely on not a soul to grant me happiness, wealth
Years fly I'm getting old and losing passion as well
Disappointed in this world cause all this pain I done felt
I felt alone, but this voice told me all will be well
All these problems that you see are real in ways you can't tell
The reason why you feel this way is truly simple you see
I sent you to show the light that only shineth in me

Lately I been
Drowning, falling, weeping
Trying not to lose it and go off
The deep end
On God I been calling for Him
He speaking every time
Every time

Jigga
Common in every conversation
Confident never cocky I ate ramen in common places
Coping with the Messiah we count up conversations
From night to day I be sure to pray for peace
At least we feast in sin, but then we don't want condemnation
And when I say we, I mean me there's been some complication
See I'm torn
I was born a sinner
A halo and horn
Called to be the light
Like the Father whose crown was made of thorns
This cross is heavy
Tryna spread the truth like Dr. Sebi
Without them killing me
Hope you feeling me
Can I get an amen? Amen
It's hard conquering culture
Cause they tell you that money and power will never fail you
They sell you a dream
I thought C.R.E.A.M. was all I needed
But God exceeded expectations
I'm older and wiser
I'm up and steaming like geysers
We Permanente like Kaiser's
And never ever going back
Now bring the chorus back

Lately I been
Drowning, falling, weeping
Trying not to lose it and go off
The deep end
On God I been calling for Him
He speaking every time
Every time

Lately I been
Drowning, falling, weeping
Trying not to lose it and go off
The deep end
On God I been calling for Him
He speaking every time
Every time
