Flame - Swimming With Sharks Lyrics
I been lied on blackballed never said a thing wait
Wait let me set the scene it's been over ten years now
Swimming in the water with great white tiger like
Hammer head sharks I've been overlooked underpaid
Never said a thing seen brother kill brother like
When you see behind the scenes it's a pretty scary thing
When you see who pulling strings I done seen them sharp teeth
Looking deep in the sharks eyes all I could do is pray
I was prey in the sharks eyes I just wanna rap for God
Wanna see some people saved but I am so afraid
If my publishing saved see royalty pave this they break up
Royalty's fakeness since I started in the basement
I've been royalty shaded I got power doom
Threatened to blackball you know who you are
Cause I said I wouldn't sign with y'all why you wanna
Some people that doubt us game over you should really be
Ashamed you can be a pain need to be tamed
Dang bro take my kindness as weakness
Up execs said to tweet this
Have to tweet this rapping less about Jesus
It's overwhelming the greed just when you see
All the greediness capitalism at it's finest well
You can break the glass ceiling be a slave and
Just sign this
Swimming in this industry ain't just with the fishes
You swimming with the bloodthirsty fame seeking
Vicious cold hearted selfish minded sneaky
Opportunist who will call you up and then
Tell them they be foolish if they whoop you
Cause they always bring a better show
If you coming in this ocean even if you got a boat
There's some people that's aboard that's ready to
Overthrow if you don't know how to swim at least
You better float cause these sharks smell weakness
They'll eat you alive I know that you was thinking
That we doing this for God well surprise
Certain guys coming for your neck
Bring something to the table
They'll steal your connect take credit for it
Discredit you and benefit from your blood
The smell starts it's liable to disrespect
We would rather this see a threat and keep going
All on and you see them jaws out
Better know them jaws out woo
What I been through only God Knows
All them long nights only God Knows
Will I be alright only God Knows
Got me questioning the life here that I chose
What I been through only God Knows
All them long nights only God Knows
Will I be alright only God Knows
I'm just trying to stay afloat
Yeah so much slander so much dealing
While you swimming guard your heart
May you never compromise fall apart
And become a shark every time
When they plottin' micromise, and they scheme
Then I cry Most High and my God intervenes
With a ram and a bush and He fights all my battles
And they rob and they push with all their might
But it don't matter cause He guards shields
Rescues saves you just stay faithful
Pray pray you'll get your reward
Don't you ever change
Focus on the Lord yeah
Keep reaching His grace
Keep telling the world that our Jesus saves
And we be talking and it's all gonna pass away
Just keep it pushing
Just keep swimming just keep swimming
Just keep swimming just keep swimming
Just keep swimming just keep swimming
Just keep swimming just keep swimming

Reminds me of Psalm 55 man; treachery from within. Powerful song🙏

Bro comment if this song is fire👌🏿
Flame, all time favourite rapper! God bless your soul.
This record is the real.
BROTHER FLAME HOLD YOUR HEAD UP AND REMEMBER MARK 8:34-38. #1. THE PROBLEM: LET'S READ; 2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3:3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 3:4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 3:9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. 3:13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
#2. THE ANSWER: REPENT! GET BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AND PRAY TO GET FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST(YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN BY THE WATER AND THE SPIRIT TO ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD!) READ JOHN 3:3-7, ACTS 1:1-5,8-14, ACTS 2:1-4,38, ACTS 8:4-17 AND ACTS 19:1-7.
I love how this track sounds like something like a Michael Bay film.
Lesssssss goooooooo

I have been listening to Flame since "Flame & Our World has fallen" and Flame has always been giving due honor in his songs to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, keep repping Christ in all that you do. Yours albums have been an inspiration to me in my beginning years as a believer, always spreading the message of the Gospel...Glory to God. Love this album by the way🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I miss Flame!... Waiting for the next album
🎧🎧
Powerful. I don't think there's a better word to describe this song. Flame is gifted, and glory to God for allowing him to reach people through music.
This go hard
Thank you Flame. #God#1

"...take credit for it and discredit you." *shots*
Im praying for you Flame. You let Jesus move you and had the courage to say things that needed to be said, but people didnt want to hear. Stay strong Flame Jesus is always with you and He's never leaving. A lot of "Christian rappers" are selling out or dont want to be defined as a Christian artist. It is a huge shame to see so many of them fall so low but keep your head up Flame! Dont let them get to you
I came in this comment section for some name drops. 👀
😂
HAHAHA, same. I was hoping to see if anyone had an idea of who he could be talking about. I know Christian Gray has been suffering the same thing. check out his interview on WadeO. is it 116? lol ... who knows
Of corse its probably 116. Look at T-Dot how hes been talking or even Andy.
PresidentWu what Playboy situation?
@Toy Ball Race League playboy situation?
All the years I've been listening to CHH I've always admired Flame for his faithfulness. Keep at it, brother, you are an encouragement.
FLAME does it AGAIN!!!!
