Lyrics

Water
Written by: Ian Smith

Feeling under the water,
working hard to survive.
Working for quarters,
trying to stop those babies’ cries.
All the things that you thought of
trying hard to survive.
Your sons and your daughters
how much time you got alive?

You’ve got
all this
inside
you like
outside
in time
you’ll find.

You thought
It was
about
But doubt
Slipped in no doubt

Feeling under the water,
trying hard to survive.
Working for quarters,
trying to stop those babies’ cries.
All the things that you thought of
trying hard to survive.
Your sons and your daughters
But how much time you got alive?

How much time you got alive?
Well, how much time you’re trying to buy?
Well hurry up cause I ain’t got no time
Cause air ain’t cheap tonight.
death has a sweet surprise for any payment ain’t on time
the lights is on, God is home and we’re still walking blind.

Feeling under the water,
working hard to survive.
Working for quarters,
trying to stop those babies’ cries.
All the things that you thought of
trying hard to survive.
Your sons and your daughters
how much time you got alive?
