A Mis Enemigos (High Tide)
Broke up on impact, I swam from the wreckage
Oil on the water, oceans of fire
Township necklace, sink or swim now
Big waves, I hit 'em like "Ow!"
Wingate and Leerdam silent in trial
Shackled in slippers, shuffling single-file
I'm counting kilometers and nautical miles
Have a word with your preacher
Niggas is foul kool-Aid by the litre
I declined with a smile (Um, no thank you)
You and I both know I ain't
Never gonna let it go
Cottonmouth in the midst of H2O
Knife in my teeth and the water's choppy
You thought I would sink prob'ly
I'm deep in the drink, sloppy
You get a couple bars I'm cheap with the ink
You need to guard your spot
With wire that's barbed
Run-flat tires on cars
High tech, optic fibres, chain on your yard
Every door and window double barred
Hunkered down, watching the surf
Ready for war eyes on the horizon
Thinking "That nigga couldn't
Have survived it!"
But I'm full of surprises
