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