Waterfalls |
| A lonely mother gazing out of the window |
| Staring at a 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 |
| Cause 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 laying cold in the gutter |
| Listen to 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 you’re moving too fast |
| Little 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 it’s good to me» |
| One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror |
| But he doesn’t recognize his own face |
| His health is fading and he doesn’t know why |
| Three letters took him to his final resting place |
| Y’all, don’t 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 |
| (Your way or no way) |
| But I think you’re moving too fast |
| 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 you’re moving too fast |
| Come on! |
| I seen a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms |
| Have come and gone, leaving a trace of not one God-given ray |
| Is it because my life is ten shades of gray, I pray |
| All ten fade away, seldom praise Him for the sunny days |
| And like His promise is true, only my faith can undo |
| The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew |
| Clear 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 endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain |
| Who’s to blame for tooting 'caine into your own vein? |
| What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else’s brain |
| You claim the insane, and name this day in time |
| For falling prey to crime |
| I say the system’s got you victim to your own mind |
| Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true |
| Believe in yourself, the rest is up to me and you |
| 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 you’re moving too fast |
| 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 you’re movin' too fast (Ooh, you’re movin' too fast) |
| Don’t go chasing waterfalls (Don't go, don’t go) |
| 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 |
| (I know, I know, your way hey) |
| But I think you’re moving too fast |
