[Verse 1]

Sick of losing, winning time, I'm switching teams and this the try out

I know I'm blessed, but still depressed, the devil wants a buy out

On my soul. My father passed, each day, I cry my eyes out

So it's hard to see, clearly, the future, and what's on my route

What am I bout? Foley never fold like clean clothes

But nothing worse than seeing family in coffins you seen closed

Still the dream grows. He wouldn't wanna, see me give up

So much faith in me, and all these expectations I must live up

To. Or surpass, move fast, and exceed

Yet all I hear, is "all I gotta do is bе the best me"

Sha shе ain't raise no fool; and Wise, he ain't raise no bitch

So I make these hits, til they make me rich

Let's stay with this; my voice prevails, that choice entails

I keep my head, way above water and hoist these sails

I'm in uncharted sea, y'all just tryna stay afloat

Take a look at Boobie now, I'm the captain of this boat


[Chorus]

FACTS! I been up shits creek without a paddle

Dropped, in the deep, the abyss, but I never rattled

Even back when things got dark and kept dimming

Since I couldn't walk, on water, I kept swimming

(Yo, keep going) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep growing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep flowing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep rowing) I just keep swimming


[Verse 2]

Thanks for the condolences. I know y'all being nice

But I've been grieving on my own and got no need for your advice

"I think your father would've wanted..." how nigga, you ain't know him?

They thought that I would crumble, now niggas gotta show em

How I'm built different. All that huffing and puffing won't blow this home down

On the road to success, I don't walk, alone now

I have the people that love me, hand me my throne now

Daddy laughing with angels "Boo think he grown now"

I shown how, I planned to go and STAY WISE

Ancestors and my lost friends, watching my pay rise

Ain't my first rodeo; probably ain't my last

But it hit the hardest yet, gon' take a minute fore it pass

So I ask, respect my privacy and technique

My whole reality, change lanes like tech geeks

I accept my fate; and let the water wash over me

And take away my sins; peace to those who watch over me


[Chorus]

FACTS! I been up shits creek without a paddle

Dropped, in the deep, the abyss, but I never rattled

Even back when things got dark and kept dimming

Since I couldn't walk, on water, I kept swimming

(Yo, keep going) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep growing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep flowing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep rowing) I just keep swimming

FACTS! I been up shits creek without a paddle

Dropped, in the deep, the abyss, but I never rattled

Even back when things got dark and kept dimming

Since I couldn't walk, on water, I kept swimming

(Yo, keep going) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep growing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep flowing) I just keep swimming

(Yo, keep rowing) I just keep swimming
