A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But I ain't no Jesus
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But only when it freezes
[Verse 1]
AmC
Why, our expectations so high?
F
Is it the bar I set? My arms I stretch?
Em
But I can't reach, a far cry from it
Am
Or is it in my grasp, but it
C
Soon as I grab, squeeze
FEm
I lose my grip like the flying trapeze
Am
In to the dark I plummet
C
Now the sky’s blackening
F
I know the marks high, but it
Em
But the flies rip apart my stomach
AmCF
Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with you're gonna harp right then
Em
That's a hard vicoden to swallow
Am
So I scrapped these
CF
As pressure increases, like khaki’s
Em
I feel the ice cracking, because
[Chorus]
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But I ain't no Jesus
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But only when it freezes
[Verse 2]
Am
It's the curse of the standard
C
That verse of the Mathers disk step
FEm
Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet
Am
Will this step be another misstep
CF
To tarnish whatever legacy, love or respect
Em
I've garnered the rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless
AmC
And it always I'm hitting the mark until I go sit in a car, listen, and pick it apart
FEm
Like "this shit is garbage"
AmC
God's given me all this, still I feel no different regardless
F
Kid's look to me like a god, this is retarded
Em
If only they knew it's a facade and it's exhaustive
Am
And I try to not listen to nonsense
C
But if you bitches are trying to strip me of my confidence
F
Mission accomplished
Em
I’m not god sent
AmCF
Pac, Kim, Big, James, Tod Smith
Em
And I’m not Prince
[Chorus]
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But I ain't no Jesus
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But only when it freezes
[Bridge]
AmF
Cause I'm only human, just like you
CG
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
AmF
I don’t think you should believe in me the way that you do
CG
Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
[Verse 3]
Am
It's true, I'm a rubix
C
A beautiful mess
F
At times jubilant, yes
Em
I goof and I jest
Am
A flawed human I guess
AmCF
But I’m doing my best to not ruin your expectations and meet 'em
Em
But first, the "Speedom" verse
Am
Now, Big Sean, he's going to fast
C
Is he gonna shout or curse out his mom?
FEm
There was a time I had the world by the balls eating outta my palm
AmC
Every album song I was spazzing the fuck out upon and now I'm getting clowned and frowned on
FEm
But the only one looking down on me now is the only one that matters, now's Deshaun
Am
Am I lucky to be around this long?
C
Begs the question, though
F
Especially after the methadone
EmAm
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
FEm
The crowds are gone, and it's time to wash out the blonde
AmC
Sales decline, they closed the curtain to the set
F
I'm still poking my head out from behind
Em
And everyone has doubt remind
Am
Now take your best rhyme, outdo it
C
Outdo it a thousand times
FEm
Now let the world tell you no one gives a fuck about your rhyme
Am
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
Em
But I'll decide if
[Chorus]
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But I ain't no Jesus
A#F7sus4F
I walk on water
AmG
But only when it freezes
[Bridge]
AmF
Cause I'm only human, just like you
CG
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
AmF
I don’t think you should believe in me the way that you do
CG
Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
[Outro]
A#F7sus4FAm
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"
