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