Oh yeah[00:00:14]
Oh yeah[00:00:16]
Oh yeah[00:00:18]
Oh yeah[00:00:19]
A lonely mother gazing out of her window[00:00:25]
Staring at a son that she just can't touch[00:00:29]
If at any time he's in a[00:00:34]
Jam she'll be by his side[00:00:36]
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much[00:00:39]
But all the praying just ain't helping at all[00:00:47]
'Cause he can't seem to keep his[00:00:51]
Self out of trouble[00:00:53]
So he goes out and he makes his[00:00:56]
Money the best way he knows how[00:00:59]
Another body laying cold in the gutter[00:01:02]
Listen to me[00:01:07]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:01:08]
Please stick to the rivers and the[00:01:13]
Lakes that you're used to[00:01:15]
I know that you're gonna have[00:01:18]
It your way or nothing at all[00:01:21]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:01:24]
Little precious has a natural obsession[00:01:31]
For temptation but he just can't see[00:01:36]
She just can't tell[00:01:40]
She gives him loving that his body can't handle[00:01:42]
But all he can say is Baby it's good to me[00:01:47]
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror[00:01:54]
But he doesn't recognize his own face[00:01:58]
His health is fading and he doesn't know why[00:02:05]
Three letters took him to his final resting place[00:02:09]
Y'all don't hear me[00:02:14]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:02:15]
Please stick to the rivers and the[00:02:20]
Lakes that you're used to[00:02:22]
I know that you're gonna have[00:02:25]
It your way or nothing at all[00:02:28]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:02:31]
Listen to me[00:02:36]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:02:38]
Please stick to the rivers and the[00:02:42]
Lakes that you're used to[00:02:45]
I know that you're gonna have[00:02:47]
It your way or nothing at all[00:02:50]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:02:53]
Come on[00:02:58]
I seen a rainbow yesterday[00:03:00]
But too many storms have come and gone[00:03:02]
Leavin' a trace of not one God given ray[00:03:04]
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray[00:03:06]
I pray all ten fade away[00:03:08]
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days[00:03:09]
And like His promise is true[00:03:11]
Only my faith can undo[00:03:13]
The many chances I blew[00:03:14]
To bring my life to anew[00:03:16]
Clear blue and unconditional skies[00:03:17]
Have dried the tears from my eyes[00:03:19]
No more lonely cries[00:03:21]
My only bleedin' hope[00:03:22]
Is for the folk who can't cope[00:03:23]
With such an endurin' pain[00:03:25]
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain[00:03:26]
Who's to blame[00:03:28]
For tootin' Caine into your own vein[00:03:29]
What a shame[00:03:31]
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain[00:03:32]
You claim the insane[00:03:34]
And name this day in time[00:03:35]
For fallin' prey to crime[00:03:36]
I say the system got you victim to your own mind[00:03:37]
Dreams are hopeless aspirations[00:03:39]
In hopes of comin' true[00:03:41]
Believe in yourself[00:03:43]
The rest is up to me and you[00:03:44]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:03:45]
Please stick to the rivers and the[00:03:49]
Lakes that you're used to[00:03:52]
I know that you're gonna have[00:03:54]
It your way or nothing at all[00:03:57]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:04:00]
Listen to me[00:04:05]
Don't go chasing waterfalls[00:04:07]
Please stick to the rivers and the[00:04:11]
Lakes that you're used to[00:04:14]
I know that you're gonna have[00:04:17]
It your way or nothing at all[00:04:19]
But I think you're moving too fast[00:04:22]
