Water

[Hook]

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

It's been the same with every girl I had

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

Why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad[Verse 1]

She was everything I needed

Atleast that's what god's contract between us stated

After 25 years of my experience of her lack of maternal instincts

I found I've defeated all odds to make it

Without a mama's love now I feel out of place

Extra wounds for a man who's never seen his father's face

As mama freebased the money for my high school tuition

From my stepfather's home I would always catch an eviction

Or a swift punch to the face

Bleeding rivers of red, fled to any quiet place

I couldn't believe that she said

He meant more to her than I did, just goodbye kid

I hope you die kid is what I viewed through my busted eyelids

I slit my wrist and sit and watch the droplets run on the floor

My cousin kicked in the door, nigga I was at war

With who was supposed to be my life bringer

The all knower, my nourisher, my aspiration encourager

I figured the fault's due to how my uncle assaulted you

And grandma died still believing it wasn't true

But I'm your only child, how can you turn your back on me

I cannot accept your apology

I'm sorry you dead to me mommy[Hook]

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

It's been the same with every girl I had

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

Why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad

(Treat a man so bad so bad so bad.

You need someone to love you) It must be in the water[Verse 2]

Why you making me leaving you much more feasable than staying

I gave you everything, please be reasonable

You're my queen by which all other women will be judged

I wanted to die so much with nobody to trust

Deep down, I felt that she was just another liar

Now I wouldn't spit on her if she was on fire

Presice way to describe it, damn I shoulda been out

Our relationship a hand grenade, you just pulled the pin out

No doubt, my world was on the rocks

My life a car crash on the side of the road, y'all slowin down to watch

I'ma leave silently tonight, you'll never find me

I guess i'm tired of seeing my best friend's car parked in my driveway bitch[Hook]

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

It's been the same with every girl I had

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

Why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

Yeah, it's in the water[Verse 3]

I met you 8 years ago

Your smile captivated my soul which was miserable

I fell in love with you instantly

I knew I wanted to protect you from this world

You were related to my girl

And even after only one year of your life

Your intelligence and love for me shined so bright

I was only 17 but it didn't take me long

To realize that I wanted to raise you as my own

And although biologically there is no tie that binds

There is no blood test that could tell me you ain't mines

And its never been kept a secret for who your real father is

But that motherfucker don't know what your favorite color is

And he don't know in school what your favorite subject is

And when you have bad dreams at night you call my name not holler his

And sometimes I wonder if you found me or I found you

And I would never say a bad word about that man around you

The older you get, the closer we get, It's harder for me

I hate the way your mom's family gives us family priority

Or authority when he told child support "Look she ain't mines"

Where was they when he was giving your moms black eyes

But the fact lies and now whatever

Our last name's the same

And you and your sister's future is filled with anything you dream

But I gotta realistically look upon tomorrow

To the first time you get upset at me and say "You ain't my father"[Hook]

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

It's been the same with every girl I had

It must be somethin' in the water they drink

Why else would a woman wanna treat a man so bad

(Treat a man so bad so bad so bad.

You need someone to love you) It must be in the water
