| [00:33.930] |
A lonely mother gazing out of her window |
| [00:38.930] |
Staring at a son that she just can't touch |
| [00:43.610] |
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side |
| [00:49.170] |
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much |
| [00:56.470] |
But all the praying just ain't helping |
| [00:59.590] |
At all 'cause he can't seem to keep |
| [01:02.770] |
His self out of trouble |
| [01:06.010] |
So he goes out and he makes his money |
| [01:09.380] |
The best way he knows how |
| [01:11.750] |
Another body laying cold in the gutter, listen to me |
| [01:18.770] |
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
| [01:22.570] |
Please stick to the rivers |
| [01:24.760] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
| [01:28.190] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
| [01:31.980] |
Or nothing at all |
| [01:34.100] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
| [01:41.980] |
Little precious has a natural obsession |
| [01:46.220] |
For temptation but he just can't see |
| [01:52.640] |
She gives him loving that his body can't handle |
| [01:57.140] |
But all he can say is baby it's good to me |
| [02:04.400] |
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror |
| [02:09.270] |
But he doesn't recognize his own face |
| [02:16.720] |
His health is fading and he doesn't know why |
| [02:20.430] |
3 letters took him to his final resting place |
| [02:25.270] |
Y'all don't hear me? |
| [02:25.610] |
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
| [02:29.960] |
Please stick to the rivers |
| [02:32.620] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
| [02:36.720] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
| [02:40.210] |
Or nothing at all |
| [02:42.930] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
| [02:49.410] |
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
| [02:53.420] |
Please stick to the rivers |
| [02:55.770] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
| [02:59.000] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
| [03:02.460] |
Or nothing at all |
| [03:04.050] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
| [03:12.400] |
I see a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms |
| [03:15.500] |
Have come and gone leavin' a trace of not |
| [03:17.500] |
Good-given ray, is it because my life is ten |
| [03:19.750] |
Shades of gray, I pray all ten fade away |
| [03:21.960] |
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days |
| [03:23.680] |
And like His promise is true only my faith can undo |
| [03:26.670] |
The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew |
| [03:28.990] |
Clear blue and unconditional skies |
| [03:31.350] |
No more lonely cries |
| [03:31.720] |
Have dried the tears from my eyes |
| [03:35.120] |
My only bleedin' hope |
| [03:35.820] |
Is for the folk who can't cope |
| [03:36.590] |
Wit such an endurin' pain |
| [03:37.960] |
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain |
| [03:39.840] |
Who's to blame |
| [03:40.530] |
For tootin' caine in your own vein |
| [03:42.940] |
What a shame |
| [03:43.150] |
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain |
| [03:45.220] |
You claim the insane |
| [03:46.680] |
And name this day in time |
| [03:47.870] |
For fallin' prey to crime |
| [03:49.210] |
I say the system got you victim to your own mind |
| [03:50.590] |
Dreams are hopeless aspirations |
| [03:51.960] |
In hopes of comin' true |
| [03:54.470] |
Believe in yourself |
| [03:55.530] |
The rest is up to me and you |
| [03:56.390] |
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
| [04:00.310] |
Please stick to the rivers |
| [04:02.910] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
| [04:07.430] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
| [04:10.860] |
Or nothing at all |
| [04:13.040] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
| [04:20.330] |
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
| [04:24.140] |
Please stick to the rivers |
| [04:25.960] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
| [04:29.750] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
| [04:33.250] |
Or nothing at all |
