Wade in the Water Lyrics by Gangstagrass

American Music

2015

[Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar]
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water
[Liquid]
Time is spent, we all pay rent
I see the stars like the bars and they're still getting bent
And God sent with the message I vent
In Exodus, freedom's a must
Hands up, heads high, let the Babylon bust
Our voice capture of humanity so plush
Wade in the water watch the systems turn rust
The machines that crushed us return to dust
No more bloodhounds tracking, scars on backs
Running from the crack of whips whacking
No wondering why, kids are strapped
Dismissing facts, unleash the kraken
Camouflaged in water, under skies we blacken
We are under attack, by hands who want wool
Fools in the school, exhumed with no clue (?)
Pain's manifested, wade and they get where the cursed force blessing
[Chorus] (Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water
[Dolio the Sleuth]
By the cover of night, use the stars as my beacon
Keeping the plan on the hush as we're speaking
Sneaking off the plantation this evening
So gather all your courage, ain't a mission for the weakling
Mud seeping through our toes as we flee with
The visions of a better life for us as human beings
Abscond while the enemy is sleeping
I can almost taste the freedom that we're seeking
(Let's go!) It will never come if we don't take it
The chains we break while we make our escape quick
One chance, so there's no time to wait
Grab an axe and make haste for they start chasing
That's why we wade through the water on purpose
Ripple effect as we disturb the surface
The flow interrupted by sheer threat of certain death
Beneath the water line feet generating turbulence
[Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar]
Look over yonder, and what do you see?
God's going to trouble the water
Oh, the Holy Ghost is a-coming for me
God's going to trouble the water
If you don't believe that I've been redeemed
God's going to trouble the water
Just follow me down to Jordan's stream
God's going to trouble the water
(Whoah)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh yeah)
God's going to trouble the water (ooh)
Wade in the water
Wade in the water, children
Wade in the water
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water (oooh)
God's going to trouble the water
