Sharks Lyrics

[Chorus: Jelly Roll & Lil Wayne]

Snakes ain't always in the grass

Sharks ain't always in the water

Thieves ain't always in the night

God ain't always at the altar

I learned to live with one eye open

Takes gettin' bitten couple times to know that

Snakes ain't always in the grass (Yeah)

Sharks ain't always in the water (Uh-huh)

[Verse 1: Lil Wayne]

Snakes don't just slither

Sweet comes before bitter

Saints versus the sinners

I just roll with the winners

I just roll up my sleeves

Roll up my weed, roll up the windows

Everybody got hidden agendas

They got kids, not gettin' a gender

If niggas not chicken, they tender like

Chick-fil-A on a Christian Day

Watch Weezy walk on water

Turn the shark the the water to fish filet

Don't forget to pray, don't forget your bitch

Play pickleball with my dick today

Pockets heavy, I got bricks to lay

Tell 'em eat your heart out and lick the plate

Can't trust nobody

Where was everybody at when I was just nobody?

Just a menace to society

Pockets itchin' like psoriasis

Thieves in the night move cool like a breeze in the night

Fiends for the pipe, speed at the light and scream for the Christ, Lord

God ain't always at the altar, nigga

Cross your heart before departure, nigga

These bullets gon' catapult you, nigga

Put you in the ground, agriculture, nigga

Always stone like a sculpture, nigga

I'm never sober, I'm steppin' over every cobra

I ain't gon' hold ya, I Jelly Roll ya

[Chorus: Jelly Roll, Lil Wayne & Big Sean]

Snakes ain't always in the grass (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Sharks ain't always in the water (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Thieves ain't always in the night (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

God ain't always at the altar (Yeah, yeah)

I learned to live with one eye open

Takes gettin' bitten couple times to know that

Snakes ain't always in the grass (Woah, woah)

And sharks ain't always in the water (Ayy)

[Verse 2: Big Sean]

Guess I gotta move the needle since you didn't do it

Glock under pillow, on some mission two shit

Fuck a institution, I know what I'm doin'

Ten steps ahead, Sha'Carri how I'm movin'

Jesus had Judas, Ceasar had Brutas

Always someone plottin', gotta beat 'em to it

Key to do this shit is first you gotta do it, then do it again and find another way to do it

Suck a dick and die, and eat shit

I'm goin' C4, I mean C6

Got a crash spot on some P shit

Got a stash spot where the seat lift

Get my hands dirty, keep a clean fit

Turn my ups and downs into ski trips

Rockin' ice woods on some D shit

Look, I'm everything you couldn't be, bitch

Jesus piece, stone crucifix

You goin' Bobby Brown, I'm a new addiction

And I'm gettin' off like the proof is missin'

And my worst trait is that I'm too forgivin'

'Cause I always listen when I shouldn't have listened

Even though y'all never made the city proud

You ain't never had your family down feelin' stuck

And you the one that had to stick it out

But like they bank accounts, it's all figured out

Miss my niggas so much, almost digged 'em out

All my exes miss me 'cause they missin' out

I'm finna pop my shit until I fizzle out

New enemies is old friends

Seen jealousy, envy from both ends

When I open up, it came with open hands

So you wonder why the fuck I'm closed in

[Chorus: Jelly Roll & Lil Wayne]

Snakes ain't always in the grass (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Sharks ain't always in the water (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Thieves ain't always in the night (Ain't gon' hold you, I Jelly Roll ya, yeah, yeah)

God ain't always at the altar (Yeah, yeah)

I learned to live with one eye open

Takes gettin' bitten couple times to know that

Snakes ain't always in the grass

And sharks ain't always in the water
