Waterfalls (Acoustic)

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 gutter

Listen to me

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it

Your way or nothing at all

But I think you're moving too fast

Little precious has a natural obsession

For temptation but he just can't see

She gives him loving that his body

Can't handle and all he can say

Is "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 but he doesn't know why

3 letters took him to his final resting place...

Y'all gonna hear me

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it

Your way or nothing at all

But I think your moving too fast

I seen a rainbow yesterday

But to many storms have come and gone

Leaving a trace

Of not one God giving ray

Is it because

My life is ten shades of grey

I pray all ten fade away

Seldom praise him for the seven 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 unconditional

Skies have dried the tears from my eyes

No more lonely cries

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it

Your way or nothing at all

But I think your moving too fast

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Please stick to the rivers

And the lakes that you're used to

I know that you're gonna have it

Your way or nothing at all

But I think your moving too fast

moving too fast
