Donny Brooks - Deep End Lyrics




You only wish when the stars out
You only try when it ain't too hard
You only cheer when I'm sold out
You only play when they let you start
Don't want to sweat for the hard win
You can't get back what you ain't gon' give
I like to swim on the deep end
I like to swim on the deep end

(And) that's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live

You shoot for the stars and they shoot back
Reach out for some love but they scoot back
Maybe that might scare you but I'm not
I just just spittin' bars to dem hard knocks
Long nights
No sleep
Same clothes
No lie
Sun up
Sun down
No watch
No time
Days blend
Into
The next
Weekend
Revise
Redo
Bounce that
Resend
And why do people call you an idealist
When all you're trying to do is be the realest
They can't control me I'm fearless
I just speak my soul hope you feel this

You only wish when the stars out
You only try when it ain't too hard
You only cheer when I'm sold out
You only play when they let you start
Don't want to sweat for the hard win
You can't get back what you ain't gon' give
I like to swim on the deep end
I like to swim on the deep end

(And) that's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live

And we gone keep pushing and rocking
Stomping the pavement
Til we kicking
We flying home
Back where Dave went
Every single second I'm counting
No time is wasted
Cause while you're fighting the struggle
We just embraced it

It ain't gon' be easy (Nina)
Cause it never is (Zora)
That's why I don't stop (Maya)
I handle my biz (Angela)
I bet you my hustle (Mary)
Is better than his (Coretta)
I came from the bottom (Lina)
Do you know where that is

You only wish when the stars out
You only try when it aint too hard
You only cheer when I'm sold out
You only play when they let you start
Don't want to sweat for the hard win
You can't get back what you aint gon' give
I like to swim on the deep end
I like to swim on the deep end

(And) that's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live
That's just how I live

How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
How I live, how I live
