B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But I ain't no Jesus
B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But only when it freezes
[Verse 1]A#mC#
Why, our expectations so high?
F#
Is it the bar I set? My arms I stretch?
Fm
But I can't reach, a far cry from it
A#m
Or is it in my grasp, but it
C#
Soon as I grab, squeeze
F#Fm
I lose my grip like the flying trapeze
A#m
In to the dark I plummet
C#
Now the sky’s blackening
F#
I know the marks high, but it
Fm
But the flies rip apart my stomach
A#mC#F#
Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with you're gonna harp right then
Fm
That's a hard vicoden to swallow
A#m
So I scrapped these
C#F#
As pressure increases, like khaki’s
Fm
I feel the ice cracking, because
[Chorus]B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But I ain't no Jesus
B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But only when it freezes
[Verse 2]A#m
It's the curse of the standard
C#
That verse of the Mathers disk step
F#Fm
Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet
A#m
Will this step be another misstep
C#F#
To tarnish whatever legacy, love or respect
Fm
I've garnered the rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless
A#mC#
And it always I'm hitting the mark until I go sit in a car, listen, and pick it apart
F#Fm
Like "this shit is garbage"
A#mC#
God's given me all this, still I feel no different regardless
F#
Kid's look to me like a god, this is retarded
Fm
If only they knew it's a facade and it's exhaustive
A#m
And I try to not listen to nonsense
C#
But if you bitches are trying to strip me of my confidence
F#
Mission accomplished
Fm
I’m not god sent
A#mC#F#
Pac, Kim, Big, James, Tod Smith
Fm
And I’m not Prince
[Chorus]B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But I ain't no Jesus
B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But only when it freezes
[Bridge]A#mF#
Cause I'm only human, just like you
C#G#
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
A#mF#
I don’t think you should believe in me the way that you do
C#G#
Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
[Verse 3]A#m
It's true, I'm a rubix
C#
A beautiful mess
F#
At times jubilant, yes
Fm
I goof and I jest
A#m
A flawed human I guess
A#mC#F#
But I’m doing my best to not ruin your expectations and meet 'em
Fm
But first, the "Speedom" verse
A#m
Now, Big Sean, he's going to fast
C#
Is he gonna shout or curse out his mom?
F#Fm
There was a time I had the world by the balls eating outta my palm
A#mC#
Every album song I was spazzing the fuck out upon and now I'm getting clowned and frowned on
F#Fm
But the only one looking down on me now is the only one that matters, now's Deshaun
A#m
Am I lucky to be around this long?
C#
Begs the question, though
F#
Especially after the methadone
FmA#m
After yesterday fades in the Dresden home that's burnt to the ground
C#
And all that's left of my house is the lawn
F#Fm
The crowds are gone, and it's time to wash out the blonde
A#mC#
Sales decline, they closed the curtain to the set
F#
I'm still poking my head out from behind
Fm
And everyone has doubt remind
A#m
Now take your best rhyme, outdo it
C#
Outdo it a thousand times
F#Fm
Now let the world tell you no one gives a fuck about your rhyme
A#m
Cause how do I, let this mic go
C#
But when I do fall from these heights I'll be fine
F#
I won't pout or cry
Fm
But I'll decide if
[Chorus]B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But I ain't no Jesus
B F7sus4 F#
I walk on water
A#mG#
But only when it freezes
[Bridge]A#mF#
Cause I'm only human, just like you
C#G#
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
A#mF#
I don’t think you should believe in me the way that you do
C#G#
Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
[Outro]B F7sus4 F#A#m
If I walked on water, I would drown
N.C.
'Cause I'm just a man
N.C.
But as long as I got a mic I'm godlike
N.C.
'Cause you and I are both alike
N.C.
Bitch, I wrote "Stan"
