Swimming with Sharks

I been lied on blackballed never said a thing wait

Wait let me set the scene it's been over ten years now

Swimming in the water with great white tiger like

Hammer head sharks I've been overlooked underpaid

Never said a thing seen brother kill brother like

Abel and Cain everything ain't what it seems

When you see behind the scenes it's a pretty scary thing

When you see who pulling strings I done seen them sharp teeth

Looking deep in the sharks eyes all I could do is pray

I was prey in the sharks eyes I just wanna rap for God

Wanna see some people saved but I am so afraid

If my publishing saved see royalty pave this they break up

Royalty's fakeness since I started in the basement

I've been royalty shaded I got power doom

Threatened to blackball you know who you are

Cause I said I wouldn't sign with y'all why you wanna

See the flame fall is that what you in the game for

Some people that doubt us game over you should really be

Ashamed you can be a pain need to be tamed

Dang bro take my kindness as weakness

Up execs said to tweet this

Have to tweet this rapping less about Jesus

It's overwhelming the greed just when you see

All the greediness capitalism at it's finest well

You can break the glass ceiling be a slave and

Just sign this

Swimming in this industry ain't just with the fishes

You swimming with the bloodthirsty fame seeking

Vicious cold hearted selfish minded sneaky

Opportunist who will call you up and then

Tell them they be foolish if they whoop you

Cause they always bring a better show

If you coming in this ocean even if you got a boat

There's some people that's aboard that's ready to

Overthrow if you don't know how to swim at least

You better float cause these sharks smell weakness

They'll eat you alive I know that you was thinking

That we doing this for God well surprise

Certain guys coming for your neck

Bring something to the table

They'll steal your connect take credit for it

Discredit you and benefit from your blood

The smell starts it's liable to disrespect

We would rather this see a threat and keep going

All on and you see them jaws out

Better know them jaws out woo

What I been through only God Knows

All them long nights only God Knows

Will I be alright only God Knows

Got me questioning the life here that I chose

What I been through only God Knows

All them long nights only God Knows

Will I be alright only God Knows

I'm just trying to stay afloat

Yeah so much slander so much dealing

While you swimming guard your heart

May you never compromise fall apart

And become a shark every time

When they plottin' micromise, and they scheme

Then I cry Most High and my God intervenes

With a ram and a bush and He fights all my battles

And they rob and they push with all their might

But it don't matter cause He guards shields

Rescues saves you just stay faithful

Pray pray you'll get your reward

Don't you ever change

Focus on the Lord yeah

Keep reaching His grace

Keep telling the world that our Jesus saves

And we be talking and it's all gonna pass away

Just keep it pushing

Just keep swimming just keep swimming

Just keep swimming just keep swimming

Just keep swimming just keep swimming

Just keep swimming just keep swimming
