Waterfall - BFM Hits[00:00:00]
Written by:J. Klemmer[00:00:03]
A lonely mother gazing out of the window[00:00:34]
Staring at her son that she just can't touch[00:00:38]
If at any time he's in a jam[00:00:43]
She'll be by his side[00:00:47]
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much[00:00:49]
But all the praying just ain't helping at all[00:00:56]
Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble[00:01:00]
So he goes out and he makes his money[00:01:05]
The best way he knows how[00:01:09]
Another body laying cold in the gutter[00:01:11]
Listen to me[00:01:16]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:01:18]
Please stick to the rivers[00:01:22]
And the lakes that you're used to[00:01:24]
I know that you're gonna have it[00:01:28]
Your way or nothing at all[00:01:30]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:01:33]
Little precious has a natural obsession[00:01:41]
For temptation[00:01:45]
But he just can't see[00:01:47]
She gives him loving that his body can't handle[00:01:52]
But all he can say is baby it's good to me[00:01:56]
One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror[00:02:03]
He doesn't recognize his own face[00:02:08]
His health is fading and he doesn't know why[00:02:14]
Three letters took him to his final resting place[00:02:18]
Y'all don't hear me[00:02:23]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:02:25]
Please stick to the rivers[00:02:29]
And the lakes that you're used to[00:02:31]
I know that you're gonna have it[00:02:35]
Your way or nothing at all[00:02:37]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:02:40]
Come on[00:02:45]
I seen a rainbow yesterday[00:02:47]
But too many storms have come and gone[00:02:49]
Leaving a trace of not one God given ray[00:02:51]
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray[00:02:53]
I pray all ten fade away[00:02:55]
Seldom praise him for the sunny days[00:02:57]
And like his promise is true[00:02:59]
Only my faith can undo the many chances[00:03:00]
I blew to bring my life to anew[00:03:02]
Clear and blue and unconditional skies[00:03:04]
Have dried the tears from my eyes[00:03:06]
No more lonely cries[00:03:08]
My only bleeding hope[00:03:09]
Is for the folk who can't cope[00:03:11]
With such an enduring pain[00:03:12]
That it keeps them in the pouring rain[00:03:13]
Who's to blame for tooting[00:03:15]
'Caine into your own vein[00:03:16]
What a shame you shoot and aim[00:03:18]
For someone else's brain[00:03:19]
You claim the insane[00:03:20]
And name this day in time[00:03:22]
For falling prey to crime[00:03:23]
I say the system's got you victim[00:03:24]
To your own mind[00:03:25]
Dreams are hopeless aspirations[00:03:26]
In hopes of coming true[00:03:28]
Believe in yourself[00:03:30]
The rest is up to me and you[00:03:31]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:03:32]
Please stick to the rivers[00:03:36]
And the lakes that you're used to[00:03:38]
I know that you're gonna have it[00:03:42]
Your way or nothing at all[00:03:44]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:03:47]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:03:54]
Please stick to the rivers[00:03:58]
And the lakes that you're used to[00:04:00]
I know that you're gonna have it your way[00:04:04]
Or nothing at all[00:04:07]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:04:10]
