Lyrics of Waterfalls - Dub by Brother Stone & the Get Down,Stan Taylor,Clay Dub
verse
A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a son she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
verse
And all the praying just ain't helping at all
'Cause he can't seem to keep himself out of trouble
So, he goes out, and he makes his money the best way he knows how
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
chorus
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please, stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
verse
Little Precious got a natural obsession with temptation
But he just can't see
She give him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is, "Baby, it's good for me"
verse
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
But he doesn't recognize his own face
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
Three letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me
chorus
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please, stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast (ooh, you're moving too fast, yeah)
verse
Aye, man, I ain't chasing falling water, water chasing me
I pay it forward right before I make 'em pay for me
It's getting harder in a world of hate and blatant greed
I practice karma like a farmer harvest patiently
verse
Don't be atomic, focus on what your cause is
Every effect got causes, especially pregnant pauses
If you a target, then it prolly means you got the juice
So whatcha cup just runneth over for the haters too
verse
Make 'em quench a thirst for you
Now they wanna work with you
Meantime, you steady pressing forward for the sake of you
An algorithmic money making mogul, paying dues
And now instead of haters hating, haters paying you
verse
And it's a cycle triangular, straying is dangerous
See what I be praying for is always intangible
But always obtainable
The power of God is all I need
Ain't no falling water chasing worth a damn
chorus
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please, stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast (ooh, you're moving too fast)
See ya done hear me now
chorus
Don't go chasing waterfalls (don't go chasing, baby)
Please, stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
