Black Water

Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
To make it through the storms and waves
Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
I began as a drop in the belly of my mother
The same as my brothers, my sisters and every other
And now i just miss her, my thoughts turned to wishes
Looking out on this big blue prison I’m set adrift on
No predicament is born from the mission for better livin'
A decision I regretted as soon as I step in it
But its too late for looking back
What am I looking at
All I see is water and the watr is just looking back
Waves of emotion
Pray with devotion
That I will not di just a slave on a ocean
Days feel hopeless
Mind’s still focussed
Even in the dark when the nighttime storms hit
Of course, it’s impossible
Forces keep haunting you
Whisper you should jump over bord
You wanna follow thru but
Something is calling you
Inside your molecules
Tellin' you that you can keep going
Don’t let them conquer you
Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
To make it through the storms and waves
Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
To make it through the storms and waves
Something is calling you
Inside your molecules
Tellin' you that you can keep going
Don’t let them conquer you
Do it for all that you believe
Do it for more than you and me
Do it to prove that you can influence
I told 'em mutiny, the scrutiny is absent
All these bad actors who’s ass-backwards
So tell me what do we have left
More the need in a warden and nor the greed in the huntin'
These are the demons that always needed confrontin'
All the people becoming something that we were not designed to be
The caster net is wider than the eye can see (it's blind for me)
Aline with the mission
Decide with the vision
That I would rather live than to die in the system
I envision that people win
But they can’t see within
And understand the sails are blown by an evil wind
Its me against the captain
Feeling like we trapped in
A cycle with no hope for extraction or compassion
Hope is still alive
The focus in my mind
When I know that I can make it home I just gotta survive
With the moral of the story
Is money attracts slaughter
When you add it to the ocean you floatin' in black water
Floatin' in black water in oceans that lack borders
An' the moral of the story is:
Money attracts slaughter
Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
To make it through the storms and waves
Life, death in a scope
Black water, hope floats
I just need to find a way
To make it through the storms and waves
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
Life, death
