Drowning (Swimming Pools by Kendrick Lamar interpretation)
Ok why you babysitting only two or three shots
Imma show you how to turn it up a notch
First you get a swimming pool full of liquor then you dive in it
Pool full of liquor then you dive in it
But do you thrive in it?
You think being in it is helping you survive but is it?
It's killing you slowly but no matter what here you go defending
Defending the high even though you'll eventually come back to low tide
Saying you cruising on your ride but your car's crashing and you’re swerving side to side
I ain't talking about Ariana grande
But I will say it's gonna consume you one day
Then you won't be waving those few bottles and watching them all flock
Yo’ home girl aint gon' play baywatch
Yeah you got a swimming pool full of liquor and you dive in it
But you got a pool full of liquor and you’re drowning in it
Now your time stopped ticking
