Lyrics Troubled waters The Streets

Troubled waters


Lazy lurking nursing my health
With the grape juice working cursing the never
There are crazy turns as you work through the present
Is it nature or nurture when you hurt your bredrens

We pray in church for our personal heaven
But your mates are searching to work to help you
Hating work and turning up forever
Doing waste man work only works for the devil

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

Why is it busy at three in the dark
Ride into the shit what will be will be hard
What have we gone and started
Why aren't they all asleep in their cars

They whine and they beep beep
They beep and they bark
Should be dialling their dealer, to re up the party
Strife's inexpensive, It's cheap to get scarred
This night is Disney, the B movie started
If everyone could just mind their own business
And be who they are

It's part of human nature to hate the man you've hurt
You don't have to face up to how you ran him dirty
Start to do my pace up to fast and further
Gun metal buildings, their ambers burn

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled Waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

It's part of human nature to hate the man you've hurt
You don't have to face up to how you ran him dirty
Definitely maybe this is based on truth
Salt and vinegar's the best flavour of rude
You say unseasoned chicken really ain't for you
Do you hate it or you read a page of reviews
Either get to know friends and let them change you
But before you put the salt on you taste the food

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

There are some that swim in
Swim In troubled waters
I swim in troubled waters
Cos my enemies can't swim

It's part of human nature to hate the man you've hurt
You don't have to face up to how you ran him dirty
I start to do my pace up to fast and further
Gun metal buildings their ambers burn
Stride past the fighting and try to go it new
Do the right thing our hearts going spare
Outside of the nightclub I don't know what to do
Inside of the nightclub it's too dark to care

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics TROUBLED WATERS of THE STREETS is also present in the album The darker the shadow the brighter the light (2023)
