Chino Xl 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
