Saint Lane - The Water Lyrics

I've been chasing something out of reach
Ignoring every single person that's in front me
Been feeling like I could lose it all so suddenly
And I should really care about where my mother be
Cause who am I to drive the baddest whip
If her home isn't adamant
Sober thoughts I was shaken like when addicts quit
I'm turning passive when I used to be so passionate, Lord
I need a break
More than I can take
Feeling all the weight
Need to know my fate
All my blessings late
Every hand I shake disingenuous and fake
Have I found the hell in hallelujah?
God I was calling couldn't seem that I could get to you
Maybe you sent a sign like you were deaf
And that's the reason I have nothing left
I've been caught up
I've been caught up
Thought I had forever but it's shorter
Just cleanse yourself in the water

Lord lift me up
I've been so low
Take me to where the water flows
Lord lift me up
I've been so low
Take me to where the water flows

Could have spent my life feeling empty and hollow
Could have spent my life giving up just to follow
Topped my law classes as a minor
Got an offer from law school, read the double page letter and declined it
House parties taking mileage
Cocaine in my sinus
Dated every girl that every looked like Miley Cyrus
But what's the point? Giving up on myself but what's the point?
Maybe next year I'll lose weight and feel great
Maybe next year I'll quit drinking and then maybe might skate
Maybe next year I'll build and maybe not break
Till it's three years later and shit still hasn't changed
What's the point?

Lord lift me up
I've been so low
Take me to where the water flows
Lord lift me up
I've been so low
Take me to where the water flows

From a city so cold you need your jumper back
And suicides a bigger risk than a heart attack
I changed my mindset. I opened humble hands
Boy bench warming in the starter cap
Like damn I was the ruggest rat
Just got his letter out from Harvard back
Okay, maybe it was Griffith no kidding
But I'm learning disconcerting trying to make the future for my kids different
So why I'm running through these thick women? Huh?
And I don't mean thick like ""big"" man I'm talking thick like ""dumb""
Cause she don't see the value in herself but she the one so I tell her
And I get crucified
Cause she gone out and heard the lies way too many times
So when it all seems distorted
Just follow me to the water

I was chasing something out of reach
Ignored the people who were standing right in front of me
I felt like I could lose it all so suddenly
Now I got love for people that be looking out for me

Lord lift me up
I've been so low
Take me to where
The water flows
