| A lonely mother gazining out of the window
|
| Staring at her son that she just can’t touch
|
| If at any time he’s in a jam she’ll be by his side
|
| But he doesn’t realize he hurts her so much
|
| But all the praying just ain’t helping at all
|
| Cuz he can’t seem to keep his self out of trouble
|
| So he goes out and he makes his money
|
| The best way he knows how
|
| Another body layin cold in the gutterListen to meDon’t go chasing waterfalls
|
| Please stick to the rivers
|
| And the lakes that you’re used to
|
| I know that you’re gonna have it
|
| Your way or nothing at all
|
| But I think you’re moving too fastLittle precious has a natural obsession
|
| For temptation but he just can’t see
|
| She gives him loving that his body
|
| Can’t handle but all he can say
|
| Is «baby is good to me»
|
| One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror
|
| But he doesn’t recognize his own face
|
| His health is fading and he doesn’t know why
|
| 3 letters took him to his final resting place… Y'all don’t you hear me
|
| Don’t go chasing waterfalls
|
| Please stick to the rivers
|
| And the lakes that you’re used to
|
| I know that you’re gonna have it
|
| Your way or nothing at all
|
| But I think your moving too fast (moving to fast) Come onI seen a rainbow
|
| yesterday
|
| But to many storms have come and gone
|
| Leaving a trace
|
| Of not one God giving ray
|
| Is it because
|
| My life is ten shades of grey
|
| I pray all ten fade away
|
| Seldom praise him for the seven daysAnd like his promise is true
|
| Only my faith can undo
|
| The many chances I blew
|
| To bring my life to anew
|
| Clear and blue and unconditional
|
| Skies have dried the tears from my eyes
|
| No more lonely cries
|
| My only bleeding hope
|
| Is for the folk who can’t cope
|
| With such an endurine pain
|
| That it keeps them in the pourin' rain
|
| Who’s to blame for tootin caine into your own vein
|
| What a shame you shoot and aim
|
| For some one elses blame
|
| You claim the insane for
|
| This day and time for falling
|
| Prey to crime I say the system’s
|
| Got you victim to your own mindDreams are hopeless aspirations
|
| In hopes of coming true
|
| Believe in yourself
|
| The rest is up to me and youDon’t go chasing waterfalls
|
| Please stick to the rivers
|
| And the lakes that you’re used to
|
| I know that you’re gonna have it
|
| Your way or nothing at all
|
| But I think your moving too fast X2 |
