[Verse 1]
CI bet you feel it now, baby
AmEspecially since we've only known each other one Cday
But, I've got to work shit out, baby
AmI'm exercising demons, got 'em running 'round the bClock now
[Pre-Chorus]
Location drop, now
Pedal to the Amfloor like you're running from the cops now
Oh, what a Ccop out
You picked a Amdance with the devil and you lucked out
[Chorus]
CThe water's getting colder
Let me in your ocean, Amswim
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Cswim
So hard to ignore ya', 'specially when I'm smoking, Amswim
World is on my shoulders
Keep your body open, Cswim
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Amyeah
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Cyeah
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Amswim
So hard to ignore ya', keep your body open, Cswim
[Instrumental]
Am C Am
[Verse 2]
CPop a couple pills in the daytime
Heard you got a friend, what’s her head like?
AmProbably should've fucked on the first night
Now I gotta wait for the green light
CI don't wanna wait for no green light
Narcolepsy got me feeling stage fright
AmLuckily I fly at insane heights
Luckily, luckily, luckily, Cya
[Pre-Chorus]
Location drop, now
Pedal to the Amfloor like you're running from the cops now
Oh, what a Ccop out
You picked a Amdance with the devil and you lucked out
[Chorus]
CThe water's getting colder
Let me in your ocean, Amswim
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Cswim
So hard to ignore ya', 'specially when I'm smoking, Amswim
World is on my shoulders
Keep your body open, Cswim
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Amyeah
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Cyeah
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Amswim
So hard to ignore ya', keep your body open, Cswim
[Bridge]
Swim, Ampush the water to the edge and watch it drip
CCheck your footing, don't get caught up in the rip
AmI know I said I'd call, I never did, no
CSwim, swim now
AmI can take you even though I've never been there
CThe tide has currently been thrashing around me again and again
AmI've been drowning for a minute, your body keeps pulling me in
[Chorus]
CThe water's getting colder
Let me in your ocean, Amswim
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Cswim
So hard to ignore ya', 'specially when I'm smoking, Amswim
World is on my shoulders
Keep your body open, Cswim
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Amyeah
I'm swimming, I'm swimming, I'm swimming, Cyeah
Out in California, I've been forward stroking, Amswim
So hard to ignore ya', keep your body open, Cswim

Pedal to the floor like you're running from the cops now

Oh, what a cop out

You picked a dance with the devil and you lucked out

The water's getting colder

Let me in your ocean, swim

Out in California, I've been forward stroking, swim

Pop a couple pills in the daytime

Luckily I fly at insane heights

Luckily, luckily, luckily, ya
