Waterfalls

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
