Shipwrecked (feat. The Mind) - Mick Jenkins Lyrics




[TheMIND:]

When it's the end of our fair lady

A million pieces lost at sea

Marooned is the crew

That's setting sail with me

Oh Lord we're sinking, God knows we fall

Set sail for Heaven, pray my soul won't get lost

Pray God accepts me, I know I'm wrong

But we've been shipwrecked, since we were gone



It was 91st first and Langley, we was 6 Deep

Steppin' up the stairs black Buick with a slick creep

Moving down the block we had froze (froze)

Felt the tension in my toes "Man who is that? I don't know"

Driving slow, many probably throw

See we was thrown off, it was New Years Eve

I still remember when my baby lungs blew them trees

I still felt like a saint when I drew that breeze

On the corners was I hangin' never bangin'

But I knew them G's, it's been tragic

Since Boy Meets World been savaged

But the goal was never really the beef, it's been cabbage

We kill for it, when we die we can't have it

But we can't kill the habit holdin' onto this boat 'til we shipwreck



[TheMIND:]

[?] shore, I die same before the dawn

I watch my niggas die of [?]

They say the waves will wash our sin

That we were black because our skin

I know we gazed upon the promise, promise land



I've been in these Waters like the Titanic

Waves crashed down, you would've thought a nigga drowned

But I'm staring at the sky like "Why panic?"

Don't you know who I pray to? We've been lookin' like prey

I just caught this shit at the prelude, peace, I been keepin' it

Step into the wools, forever a black sheep to the herd

How you not heard about this nigga?

You think you feelin' the flow somewhere in the ceiling, I'm not hot

Trust I'll be bringin' it, a nigga get it like "Pop pop!"

I've been trying to give them what's good

But don't call it food for thought

Shit taste like a hot fry

Shit had a nigga so thirsty

I couldn't see straight it was like I was cock-eyed

Fam, tell them what you've seen on the southside

Tell them, tell them where you been, nigga

Tell them where you're going

Cold park whenever I was outside

Somebody shootin' nigga

Even when it's snowing, in the cold

You could see the people thirsty

Well, I gotta little water right here

You heard me, all you gotta do is take a sip

And I don't want your souls, and I don't want your gold

I just do it for the Free my nigga don't trip

Don't trip, I do it for the Free, my nigga don't trip

Don't trip, I do it for the Free, my nigga don't trip

Don't trip



[Sample:]

Ten thousand tiny soldiers marching right through my heart

Couldn't keep me at bay
