A lonely mother gazing out of her window
  Staring at a son that 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
  But all the praying just ain't helping
  At all 'cause he can't seem to keep
  His self 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 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
  
  Little precious has a natural obsession
  For temptation but he just can't see
  She gives him loving that his body can't handle
  But all he can say is baby it's good to me
  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
  3 letters took him to his final resting place
  Y'all don't hear me
  
  [Chorus]
  
  I seen a rainbow yesterday
  But too many storms have come and gone
  Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
  Is it because my life is ten shades of gray
  I pray all ten fade away
  Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
  
  And like His promise is true
  Only my faith can undo
  The many chances I blew
  To bring my life to anew
  Clear blue and unconditional skies
  Have dried the tears from my eyes
  No more lonely cries
  My only bleedin' hope
  Is for the folk who can't cope
  Wit such an endurin' pain
  That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
  Who's to blame
  For tootin' caine in your own vein
  What a shame
  You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
  You claim the insane
  And name this day in time
  For fallin' prey to crime
  I say the system got you victim to your own mind
  
  Dreams are hopeless aspirations
  In hopes of comin' true
  Believe in yourself
  The rest is up to me and you
  
  [Chorus]
