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