Swim Good Lyrics

That's a pretty big trunk on my Lincoln town car, ain't it?
Big enough to take these broken hearts and put 'em in it
Now I'm driving 'round on the boulevard, trunk bleeding
And every time the cops pull me over, they don't never see them
They never see them (ow)
And I've got this black suit on
Roaming around like I'm ready for a funeral
Five more miles 'til the road runs out

I'm about to drive in the ocean
I'ma try to swim from something bigger than me
Kick off my shoes and swim good and swim good
Take off this suit and swim good and swim good, good

Got some pretty good beats on this 808 CD, yeah
Memory seats I'm sitting on stay heated (yeah)
I woulda put tints on my windows but what's the difference (no, no)
If I feel like a Ghost (no Swayze) ever since I lost my baby?
I've had this black suit on (ow)
Roaming around like I'm ready for a funeral (ow)
One more mile 'til the road runs out, out

I'm about to drive in the ocean
I'ma try to swim from something bigger than me
Kick off my shoes and swim good and swim good
Take off this suit and swim good and swim good, good

I'm going off (oh my pretty love), don't try stopping me
I'm going off (throw me a line), don't try saving (oh my)
No flares (oh my), no vest (but you're my love), and no fear
Waves are washing me (out)

I'm about to drive (drive) in the ocean (ocean, yeah)
I'ma try to swim from something bigger than me (bigger than me)
Kick off my shoes (good) and swim good (good), and swim good
Take off this suit (take off this suit)
And swim good, and swim good, good

What is the Meaning of Swim Good?

Plunging into the depths of emotional turmoil, this haunting melody encapsulates a journey of heartbreak and despair. The protagonist is seen driving in his Lincoln town car, a metaphorical vessel carrying his shattered heart, with an intention to dive into the ocean - symbolizing overwhelming emotions and challenges. The act of swimming signifies his struggle to navigate through these overpowering feelings. His black suit reflects his mourning state after losing love, while the absence of rescue tools like flares or vests underscores his sense of abandonment and hopelessness. Yet amidst this chaos, there's a glimmer of resilience as he resolves to swim 'good', indicating an attempt to survive and overcome. A poignant exploration of pain and perseverance, it's a testament to human resilience in the face of heartbreak. #Heartbreak #Resilience #EmotionalJourney
