<Verse 1> |
| [00:20.590] |
Wade with us |
| [00:21.430] |
Baptize and convert to the waves with us |
| [00:23.730] |
I tuned into what the future holds |
| [00:25.440] |
I could never be a slave, ****** |
| [00:26.930] |
They gon' have to pay me, Navy |
| [00:28.360] |
Downloaded by the tidals like Jay-Z |
| [00:30.460] |
That's a roll offshore like an A.P., Davy |
| [00:33.080] |
Jones' locker on top of those hoppers off the side of the ship |
| [00:35.900] |
Suicide, didn't die from the dip |
| [00:38.280] |
Submarine man, keep your eyes on the blips |
| [00:41.190] |
Sonar, echo, location, and where we are facin' |
| [00:44.140] |
Get back to our nation, oh Lord |
| [00:47.250] |
So we walkin' back to Africa |
| [00:48.920] |
And I found a detour to the seashore |
| [00:51.660] |
Yes, jumped off the deck |
| [00:53.320] |
To leave footsteps on the depths of the sea floor, ayy |
| [00:55.840] |
<Chorus> |
| [00:56.080] |
My bones is where the beach is white |
| [00:57.730] |
Where the beach is white cause they bleached us light |
| [01:00.020] |
So I'm goin' back home, I took a leap last night |
| [01:02.340] |
So I'm walkin' on water 'til my feet just like Jesus Christ |
| [01:05.840] |
Wow, walkin' on water |
| [01:07.140] |
Wow, wow, walkin' on water |

Yeah, uhh, dive with us, vibe with us |
| [01:35.940] |
Imbibe with the tide |
| [01:37.080] |
Sea salty cause it cry with us when we looked it in the eyes |
| [01:39.500] |
Like how could you help her? |
| [01:41.190] |
But sigh and apologize and said that I'm sorry, we're shelter |
| [01:43.440] |
Y'all can live down here forever, drownin' and severed |
| [01:47.020] |
From all your lungs and the lungs of your sons |
| [01:49.750] |
Tell your daughters the water's a treasure |
| [01:51.560] |
Summon the forest |
| [01:52.750] |
Talkin' to trees like how could you be in the chorus |
| [01:55.640] |
With something so horrid? |
| [01:56.680] |
You became boards for the floors and the doors of the warships |
| [01:58.940] |
Anthropomorphic, the forest returned with a match |
| [02:02.390] |
Made from itself and said, "Burn us with that" |
| [02:04.730] |
Then left again and came back with an axe |
| [02:07.000] |
We can serve you as furniture or furnace us black, ayy |
| [02:09.710] |
<Chorus> |
| [02:09.870] |
My bones is where the beach is white |

Yeah, uhh, rise with us |

From out the sevens to the Heavens in the skies in us |
| [04:41.090] |
Conversations with the constellations |
| [04:42.700] |
While you navigate the haters, black baby alligator baiters |

Supposed to do greater, with all of your alphas and betas |

You were so busy just tryin' to shine |

Star said, "Excuse our behavior |

We will be indebted to you for all of eternity |
| [05:00.130] |
If you cancelled your heart and forgave us |
| [05:02.340] |
Remove all our favors from childrens of sailors and slavers |

Repay you with acres |
