Drowning Lyrics by Robbie G

Boom Bap

2017

[Verse 1]
Yo I'm drownin' in a bottle of gin
Lookin back at what it all couldn't been
A fallen angel from the tallest limb, the tree of life
I see the fight is all within, we can't abolish all our sins
The fear of the past, won't get you near to the future
Playin the bad guy worried that the hero might shoot ya
Playing games with the devil try and stay on my level
Sinkin' lower than dirt, and diggin' graves with the shovel
It's too late, feel encaged in this flesh vessel
Blow up the place, and then wait for the dust to settle
You don't know what has caused mе to be this way
How that when you see the light i see thе gray
Watchin people try and take my dream away yo I won't have it
When I see something that I want and need I go grab it
Told you that I don't see the breaks there's no traffic
People try and hold me back, either way I go past it
[Chorus]
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Lord knows that I've been
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Yeah
[Verse 2]
I see the more that people stare at me the less that they listen
Saying that I need therapy, I question the system
I think it's rare for me to get their opinions
I'm just here to speak and proud to say that I'm blessed to be different
Still I get down on myself, and I hate when I'm wrong
Gettin' critical of lines in the middle of making a song
Can't stay where I belong, conquer the world like Genghis Khan
And there's time I can't take it I feel I been waiting to long
Fallin' down I can't get uop, I need a ladder
Til I meet a snake and then they got me slidin' down even faster
What's the key to happiness when you've been beaten, battered, badly
This is evil at it's nastiest
I'm trin to pass the torch to the next generation
Still I got some enemies hatin'
You supposed to learn these lessons in trainin
The dedication, tryin' to reach the summit you can king me with the crown
Still these crabs in the bucket try bringin' me down, I'm
[Chorus]
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Lord knows that I've been
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Yeah
[Chorus]
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Lord knows that I've been
Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I
Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the
Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life
Yeah
