Waterfalls

A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a 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 needs her so much
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
'Cause he can't seem to keep himself out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me

CHORUS
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that your gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think your'e 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
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
One day he goes and takes 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

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE

I seen a rainbow
But too many storms have come and gone
Leavin' a trace of not one God given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of may
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 blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries my only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
Wit such an endurin' pain
That it keeps em' in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame
For toolin' caine in your own vein what a shame
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim the insane
And name this day in time for fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
Dreams and hopeless aspirations In hopes of comin' true
Beleive in yourself the rest is up to me and you

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
