[length: 05:20]
[00:39.92]A lonely mother gazing out of her window
[00:44.69]Staring at a son that she just can’t touch
[00:49.05]If at any time he’s in a jam, she’ll be by his side
[00:54.72]But he doesn’t realize he hurts her so much
[01:02.04]But all the praying just ain’t helping at all
[01:06.31]’Cause he can’t seem to keep his self out of trouble
[01:11.67]So, he goes out, and he makes his money the best way he know how
[01:17.70]Another body laying cold in the gutter
[01:22.09]Listen to me
[01:58.29]Don’t go chasing waterfalls
[02:01.52]Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
[02:07.24]I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
[02:12.99]But I think you’re moving too fast
[02:20.96]Little precious has a natural obsession
[02:24.95]For temptation, but he just can’t see
[02:31.70]She give him loving that his body can’t handle
[02:36.40]But all he can say is, “Baby, it’s good to me”
[02:43.02]One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
[02:47.48]But he doesn’t recognize his own face
[02:53.76]His health is fading and he doesn’t know why
[02:58.13]Three letters took him to his final resting place
[03:03.11]Y’all don’t hear me
[03:27.83]Don’t go chasing waterfalls
[03:31.29]Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
[03:36.57]I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
[03:42.65]But I think you’re moving too fast
[03:44.95]Don’t go chasing waterfalls
[03:46.72]Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
[03:46.86]I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
[03:47.30]But I think you’re moving too fast (come on)
[03:49.48]I seen a rainbow yesterday
[03:51.46]But too many storms have come and gone
[03:53.08]Leavin’ a trace of not on God-given ray
[03:55.34]Is it because my life is ten shades of gray
[03:57.38]I pray all ten fade away
[03:58.53]Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
[04:00.55]And like his promise is true
[04:02.57]Only my faith can undo
[04:04.12]The many chances I blew
[04:05.76]Will it bring my life to anew
[04:07.16]Clear blue and unconditional skies
[04:09.33]Have dried the tears from my eyes
[04:10.19]No more lonely cries
[04:12.04]My only bleedin’ hope is for the folk who can’t cope
[04:14.19]Wit’ such an endurin’ pain
[04:15.33]That it keeps ’em in the pourin’ rain
[04:17.45]Who’s to blame for tootin’ cane in your own vein
[04:20.29]What a shame
[04:21.26]You shoot and aim for someone else’s brain
[04:23.23]You claim the insane and name this day in time
[04:25.44]For fallin’ prey to crime
[04:27.08]I say the system got you victim to your own mind
[04:28.15]Dreams are hopeless aspirations
[04:30.66]In hopes of comin’ true
[04:32.58]Believe in yourself
[04:33.52]The rest is up to me and you
[04:34.41]Don’t go chasing waterfalls
[04:37.81]Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
[04:43.75]I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
[04:49.56]But I think you’re moving too fast (oh, you’re moving)
[04:56.42]Don’t go chasing waterfalls
[05:00.32]Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
[05:05.93]I know that you’re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
[05:11.61]But I think you’re moving too fast
