Floods remix Lyrics – King Los
Way too numb
(too numb)
Way too numb to feel the pain
(Feel the pain)
Call my name
(my name)
But i ain’t coming home
(Ain’t coming home)
We all slaves to things
Watch us fall fall fall
Been standing in rain so long
Flood Flood away
(Floods take me away)
The journey is painful
You watching us suffer
This cold world don’t view me
Through the eyes of my mother
We smile but we crying
We lie to each other
We slave in the winter
We die in the summer
They *** us we riot
We dying in numbers
Its knees on our necks
We die cuz we smoothed
We all said we can’t breath
Cuz we tied to each other
Like the boats they stole us with
We Tied to each other
We so sick of struggling
That we tired of each other
400 yrs a long time
We tried to recover
A little black boy stared in the eyes of his brother
Said if its a God in the sky
***
how could he love us
How could he love us
How could he love us
How could he love us
How could he love us
He implied to his mother
He cried to his brother
If its a God in the sky
***
How could he love us
We just down this *** dying
He watching above us
How could he love us
How could he loves us
We don’t spend no family time
But we tired of each other
But we still hanging from them trees
Like we tied to each other
How could he love us
How could he love us
They wouldn’t let us learn math
Now we dying in numbers
How could he love us
How could he love us
When we reach the pits of hell
is he watching above us
Ya heaven sounds nice
But i came from the mud
You streets paved in gold
Mines painted in blood
I guess it is what it is
Cant change what it was
We take drugs for the pain
And take pain for the drugs
If ya skin look like mine then it came
with a grudge
If ya skin look like mine you afraid of the judge
If ya skin look like mine then they hate what you love
And If ya skin look like mine they come take it in blood
A lil black boy stared in the eyes of his father
And he asked him why have you forsaken my love
He went to hug em and the image just faded to dust
He got two options he can handle that weight or get crushed
He see other black men and display his disgust
The love never showed up so the hate is a must
He live a nightmare his mother tried waking em up
But when she reached out to grab him he faded to dust
We fading to dust
We get faded as ***
We take drugs for the pain
But the pain is too much
We fading to dust
We keep fading to dust
We praying for what
Ain’t no savior for us
This journey is painful
You just watching us suffer
A lil black boy cried to his mom & his brother
when ya skin look like ours ya obstacles tougher
The Morherfuckin truth hurts
So we lie to each other
God don’t seem to love us
all we got is each other
The devil playing tug a war
Cuz we tied to each other
We put our hands on prison glass
and we smile at each other
The judge a give you 50 yrs
We dying in numbers
The police don’t see us
through the eyes of our mother
They put of all in handcuffs
Cuz we tied to each other
We bring children in this world
Don’t provide for each other
Ya daddy just wanted some ***
We lie to each other
Different daddies
But we came from inside of one mother
How you only bring one McDonald’s
We tied to each other
We slave in the winter
We die in the summer
They spun his block to up the score
Cuz we dying in numbers
The streets on our necks
We die cuz we smoothed
Black lives don’t really matter
We lied to each other
We so sick struggling
That we plot on each other
400 yrs a long time
And we tried to recover
A little black boy stared in his eyes of his brother
Said if its a God in the sky
***
how could love us
How could love us
How could he love us
We just down this *** dying
He watching above us
Nobody love us
Nobody love us
Nobody but us
These days it feel like
Aint nobody brothers
Nobody love us
Way too numb
(too numb)
Way too numb to feel the pain
(Feel the pain)
Call my name
(my name)
But i ain’t coming home
(Ain’t coming home)
We all slaves to things
Watch us fall fall fall
Been standing in rain so long
Flood Flood away
(Floods take me away)
