The Fool, Pt. 2 (Water)

Lyrics

And they were all at war over land Thinking land was wealth But the truth is in the water What's up the water homie? Know what the water showed me? They wanna control the water Know what the water told me? That life begins in the water So only this water knows me This ocean within I dove in it when I was lonely Do you know the weight of water? People don't know the depths This ocean within me Same waters they don't protect While those in the know invest We know that they don't posses it Our hands can't hold the water A man can't own the water We owe the water You know where water goes? Which way the water flows? See a reflection on the waters if you wanna know Ocean within me Lifting up to the sun and the clouds They giving life to the earth once it's thundering down We search under the ground Search other planets for it What is the water worth and how does the water work? Beyond the thirst, your reflection on the surface The direction of the currents, what they show A person and a purpose below Who you are and which way you should go That's all anyone wanna know Just who you are and which way you should go That's what the water shows Yeah That's all anyone wanna know Is who you are and which way you should go That's what the water shows So tell me, what's your water? When do you see as clear as peering into the water? Is it a close peer reflecting your truest image Refreshing the truth within ya Or is it a song? Is it a psalm, you clear and calm? But where do you see as deep as looking beneath the water? Study the present tense The currents, the present tensions And sense 'em and swim against Notice the slippery slope of the mainstream That's the name of the system that floats many away Watch the river Those listening close know where the winds are blowing Hear whispering in their souls Water within the scrolls Waves that can carry you forward Water that gives you hope It keeps you afloat Whole ocean within They don't get why I always got a grin They don't get why I don't always gotta win Do you know that when I walk in the sun I get chills? There's an ocean within me Whole life navigating in skin It ain't a lot that can phase me Nowadays I feel wavy Like I'm walking on water I wasn't trained in the Navy But we fight for these waters Because these waters, they saved me All water is holy water, I bathe in it daily Now can you tell me what the water's worth? Or how the water works? Beyond your thirst for it Your reflection on the surface The direction of the currents What they show, a person and a purpose below Who you are and which way you should go That's all anyone wanna know Uh Who you are and which way you should go Uh That's what the water shows That's all anyone wanna know Is who you are and which way you should go Uh, that's what the water shows But somehow our thirst for water Became a thirst for land Man We come up for some land Ahh Drink the sand (Caw) Now there's a whole desert within My whole world is a desert And my whole world is at war
