Water Baby (Feat. Loyle Carner)

[Chorus: Tom Misch] 'Cause I was born a water baby Swimming with these times The grooves that turn the grey to sunshine 'Cause I will live through days that break me Swimming with these times The grooves that turn the grey to sunshine [Verse 1: Loyle Carner] I'm still tryna write the story as I see it The trouble is when I say it, they don't believe it They reckon I only say it but I don't mean it I'm tryna tell 'em I'd only say it if I can feel it 'Cause money's tight, maybe tighter than it was before I'm helping out on a mortgage I really can't afford Family breaking north, I cover the trips abroad Shakin', I'm making another loss on another tour But what I done it for? To see my mother in the sun abroad I run into trouble, that was coming for her My little brother got the hunger for All the exact same pain That makes the rain in my stomach pour So let me paint it broader This for any dude who's got a daughter Living off lines that your papa taught her Ain't got no time to be coming for you Go with the flow of this running water [Refrain: Loyle Carner] Go with the flow of this Go with the flow of this Go with the flow of this [Verse 2: Tom Misch] Don't you worry Two leaves won't grow the same And people might forget your name Doesn't matter if they do Don't you hurry When the hot coffee pours will stain And when the Uber left you in the rain Your time will come around to you Despite the stress of spending so much time alone 'Cause this ge-o-gra-phy is keeping me at home And I don't know the way to go I move with the flow of this running water, this running water [Chorus: Tom Misch] 'Cause I was born a water baby Swimming with these times The grooves that turn the grey to sunshine 'Cause I will live through days that break me Swimming with these times The grooves that turn the grey to sunshine [Outro: Loyle Carner] Go with the flow of this running water
