Don Trip Under Water Lyrics

[Chorus]
I've been tryna breathe underwater
I've been tryna hide 'cause I'm scared
Confusing which is what from the other (Yeah)
'Cause it doesn't mean so much in the end
I've been tryna breathe underwater (I am, I'm just tryna keep from drowning)
I've been tryna hide 'cause I'm scared (Yeah, yeah)
Confusing which is what from the other
'Cause it doesn't mean so much in the end
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Feel like no matter how far I go, I ain't made it far enough
Emotions gon' overflow if I keep 'em bottled up
Dog eat dog world, try not to get gobbled up
My kids think I made of steel, I'm tryin' not to rush
I teach my babies, end of the day, all we got is us
What good is a heart of gold if you don't know who not to trust?
The money kept multiplyin' and niggas kept poppin' up
They all wanna see me back in a hole like I'm Shia LaBeouf
Come try your luck, push me and see if I budge
I was in need of assistance, I went and got me a plug
I took a leap of faith and believed in my digi' scale
Where I come from, it's eye for an eye until we readin' Braille
Difficult movin' forward, but that's better than backtrackin'
Gotta watch your back, the people behind you might be backstabbers
Nigga trade on me, just know that ain't no comin' back after
'Cause I'm the one to blame if I let that happen

[Chorus]
I've been tryna breathe underwater (Yeah)
I've been tryna hide 'cause I'm scared (Trade on me, just know that ain't no comin' back after, I'm the one to blame if I let that happen, yeah) Confusing which is what from the other (Yeah)
'Cause it doesn't mean so much in the end (Wait)
I've been tryna breathe underwater (I am, I'm just tryna keep from drowning)
I've been tryna hide 'cause I'm scared (Yeah, yeah)
Confusing which is what from the other
'Cause it doesn't mean so much in the end
Yeah
[Verse 2]
They say that pain is just fear leaving the body
I can heal myself, I feel I don't need anybody
I been through the ringer, left with nobody to call on
I been through hell and back so many times, it's where I call home
I learned to weather the storm and keep it quiet
You never see my troubles, I'd rather suffer in silence
Bet your bottom dollar I'm never runnin' or hidin'
I bumped into Kelly Rowland, she told me I'm a survivor
I'm known from makin' somethin' from nothin', baby, MacGyver
If life's a box of chocolate, I better make mine Godiva, you know
You know, the best, I'm Superman in the flesh
I put my all in this game without ever pressin' reset
I'm still standin', I'm planted firm
I learned the harder way to value every penny I earn
And for every penny I lost, just know a lesson was taught
Growin' up wasn't quite as easy as we thought
Long live Pif

[Outro]
And for every penny I lost, just know a lesson was taught
Growin' up wasn't quite as easy as we thought
Long live Pif
