Walk On Water

  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water,
Dm7               Bm
  But I ain't no Jesus.
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water,
Dm7                   Bm
  But only when it freezes.


[Verse 1]
  Am
  Why are expectations so high? Is 
it the bar I set?
          F
  My arms, I stretch, but I can't 
reach
            C
  A far cry from it, or it's in my 
grasp, but as
                  Am
  Soon as I grab, squeeze

  I lose my grip like the flying 
trapeze
  Into the dark I plummet, now the 
F
sky's blackening

  I know the mark's high
              C
  Butterflies rip apart my stomach
                              Dm7
  Knowing that no matter what bars I
 come with

  You're gonna harp, gripe, and
  That's a hard Vicodin to swallow, 
           F
so I scrap these
                             Bm
  As pressure increases like khakis

  I feel the ice cracking, 
because€...


[Chorus]
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                 Bm
  But I ain't no Jesus
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                     Bm
  But only when it freezes


[Verse 2]
           Am
  It's the curse of the standard
N.C
  That the first of the Mathers disc
 set

  Always in search of the verse that
 I haven't spit yet
 F                              
  Will this step just be another 
          C
misstep, to tarnish
  Whatever the legacy, love or 
       Am
respect I've garnered?

  The rhyme has to be perfect, the 
delivery flawless
 F
  And it always feels like I'm 
hittin' the mark
            C
  'Til I go sit in the car, listen 
and pick it apart
Continúa después del anuncio
         Dm7
  Like, "This shit is garbage!"

  Bmod's given me all this, still I 
feel no different regardless
       F
  Kids look to me as a god, this is 
retarded
               Bm
  If only they knew, it's a facade 
and it's exhaustive
Dm7
  And I try to not listen to 
nonsense
N.C
  But if you bitches are tryin' to 
strip me of my confidence

  Mission accomplished
 F                         Bm
  I'm not Bmod-sent, Nas, Rakim, 
Pac, B.I.Bm., James Todd Smith

  And I'm not Prince, so...


[Chorus]
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                 Bm
  But I ain't no Jesus
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                     Bm
  But only when it freezes
                  F      Bm        
  'Cause I'm only human, just like 
Am
you
  C            F            Bm   
  Making my mistakes, oh if you 
     Am
only knew
          C                F      
  I don't think you should believe
           Bm            Am
 in me the way that you do
             Em   F               
  'Cause I'm terrified to let you 
Bm
down, oh


[Verse 3]
       Am
  It's true, I'm a Rubik's, a 
beautiful mess

  At times juvenile, yes, I goof and
 I jest
 F
  A flawed human, I guess
 C
  But I'm doin' my best to not ruin 
your ex-
Am
  pectations and meet 'em, but first

  The "Speedom" verse, now Big Sean
  He's going too fast, is he gonna 
         F
shout or curse out his mom?
                             C
  There was a time I had the world 
by the balls, eating out my palm
        Am
  Every album song I was spazzin' 
the fuck out on

  And now I'm gettin' clowned and 
frowned on
               F
  But the only one who's looking 
down on
                        C
  Me that matters now's DeShaun

  Am I lucky to be around this long?
Am
  Begs the question though

  Especially after the methadone
               F
  As yesterday fades and the Dresden
 home
                              C
  Is burnt to the ground, and all 
that's left of my house is lawn
                 Am
  The crowds are gone

  And it's time to wash out the 
blonde
                              F
  Sales decline, the curtains drawn
  They're closing the set, I'm still
                           C
 poking my head from out behind
  And everyone who has doubt, remind
 Am

  Now take your best rhyme, outdo 
                               F
it, now do it a thousand times
  Now let 'em tell ya the world no 
       C                           
longer cares or gives a fuck about 
            Dm7
your rhymes

  And as I grow outta sight, outta 
mind, I might go outta mine
         F                         
  'Cause how do I ever let this mic
                    Bm
 go without a fight
  When I made a fuckin' tightrope 
             Am
outta twine?

  But when I do fall from these 
heights though, I'll be fine
          F
  I won't pout or cry or spiral down
 or whine
           Bm
  But I'll decide if it's my final 
bow this time around, 'cause


[Chorus]
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                 Bm
  But I ain't no Jesus
  C Bm       Am
  I walk on water
Dm7                     Bm
  But only when it freezes
                  F      Bm       
  'Cause I'm only human, just like
  A
 you
            C            F        
  I've been making my mistakes, oh
    Bm        A
 if you only knew
          C                F      
  I don't think you should believe
           Bm            A
 in me the way that you do
             Em   F               
  'Cause I'm terrified to let you 
Bm
down, oh
     C Bm         Am         
  If I walked on water, I would 
    C
drown


[Otro]
N.C
'Cause I'm just a man
N.C
But as long as I got a mic, I'm 
godlike
N.C
So me and you are not alike
N.C
Bitch, I wrote "Stan"
