Wade with us, baptize and convert to the waves with us

I tuned into what the future holds I could never be a slave, niggas

They gon′ have to pay me, Navy, downloaded by the tidals like Jay-ZThat's a roll offshore like an A.P., Davy

Jones′ locker on top of those hoppers off the side of the ship

Suicide, didn't die from the dip,

Submarine man, keep your eyes on the blips

Sonar, echo, location,

And where we are facin', get back to our nation, oh Lord

So we walkin′ back to Africa and I found a detour to the seashore

Yes, jumped off the deck,

To leave footsteps on the depths of the sea floor, ayy

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I'm goin′ back home, I took a leap last night

So I'm walkin′ on water 'til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Wow, walkin′ on water, wow, wow, walkin' on water

Wow, wow, walkin' on water, wow, wow, walkin′ on water, ayy

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I'm goin′ back home, I took a leap last night

So I'm walkin′ on water 'til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Walkin′ on water, wow, wow

Walkin' on water, wow, wow (yeah), walkin' on water, ayy

Dive with us, vibe with us

Imbibe with the tide, sea salty ′cause it cry with us

When we looked it in the eyes, like how could you help her?

But sigh and apologize and said that I′m sorry, we're shelter

Y′all can live down here forever, drownin' and severed

From all your lungs and the lungs of your sons

Tell your daughters the water′s a treasure

Summon the forest, talkin' the trees

Like how could you be in the chorus with something so horrid?

You became boards for the floors and the doors of the warships

Anthropomorphic, the forest returned with a match

Made from itself and said, "Burn us with that"

Then left again and came back with an axe

We can serve you as furniture or furnace us black

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I'm goin' back home, I took a leap last night

So I′m walkin′ on water 'til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Wow, walkin′ on water, wow, wow, walkin' on water

Wow, wow, walkin′ on water, wow, wow, walkin' on water, ayy

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I'm goin' back home, I took a leap last night

So I′m walkin′ on water 'til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Walkin′ on water, wow, wow

Walkin' on water, wow, wow, walkin′ on water, yeah

Shipwreck with us

Grab vessels, bring 'em down to the depths with us

Walkin' on water, wow, wow, walkin′ on water, ayy

Yeah, rise with us

From out the sevens to the Heavens in the skies in us

Conversations with the constellations

Why you navigate the haters

Black baby alligator baiters

Supposed to do greater, with all of your alphas and betas

And minors and majors

You were so busy just tryin' to shine

You shoulda been tryin' to save us

Star said, excuse our behavior

We will be indebted to you for all of eternity

If you cancelled your heart and forgave us

Remove all our favors

From childrens of sailors and slavers

Repay you with acres

But here in the heavens where harvest is greater

A meager inheritance, pardon our arrogance

Those with Americans, guide them to places much safer, ayy"

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I′m goin' back home, I took a leap last night

So I′m walkin' on water ′til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Wow, walkin' on water, wow, wow, walkin′ on water

Wow, wow, walkin' on water, wow, wow, walkin' on water, ayy

My bones is where the beach is white

Where the beach is white, ′cause they bleached us light

So I′m goin' back home, I took a leap last night

So I′m walkin' on water ′til my feet just like Jesus Christ

Walkin' on water, wow, wow

Walkin′ on water, wow, wow, walkin' on water, ayy
