Elucid - Bleachwater lyrics

[Verse 1: Elucid] Fighter f**, hate and lust, gonna be a steamy one Black bodies in the sun, I bet you really, really wanna touch Instead you pour your palm into a fist to pull the gun If I'm reaching, we even, I see no other reason It's ingrained how they teach it, reset or be doomed to repeat it Seen it all before Something bout the water, boy Something bout the water Pools, fountains, toilets and beaches Bleach 'em, more than willing, no business Me and my villainous n***a friends You silly but so serious Before videos some might call it a conspiracy All the gods screaming 'are you hearing me?'
