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