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 waterfallsplease stick to the riversand the lakes that you’re used to I know that you’re gonna have ityour way or nothing at allbut I think you're moving too fastLittle precious has a natural obsessionfor temptation but he just can't seeshe gives him loving that his bodycan't handle but all he can sayis "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 meDon’t go chasing waterfallsplease stick to the riversand the lakes that you’re used to I know that you’re gonna have ityour way or nothing at allbut I think your moving too fast(2x)Come onI seen a rainbow yesterdaybut to many storms have come and gone leaving a trace of not one God giving ray is it becausemy life is ten shades of grey 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 and blue and unconditionalskies have dried the tears from my eyes no more lonely cries, my only plead and hope is for the folk who can't cope with such an endurin’ pain that it keeps them in the pourin' rain who's to blame for tootin’ caine into your own veinwhat a shame you shoot and aim for some one else’s brain you claim the insane for this day and time for falling prey to crime I say the system'sgot you victim to your own minddreams are hopeless aspirationsin hopes of coming true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and youDon’t go chasing waterfallsplease stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to I know that you’re gonna have ityour way or nothing at allbut I think your moving too fast X2 (faded)
