Walk On Water

Walk On Water文本歌词

作词 : Marshall Mathers/H. Hafermann/B. Knowles

作曲 : Marshall Mathers/H. Hafermann/B. Knowles

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes (****)

Why are expectations so high? Is it the bar I set?

My arms, I stretch, but I can't reach

A far cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as

Soon as I grab, squeeze

I lose my grip like the flyin' trapeze

Into the dark I plummet, now the sky's blackening

I know the mark's high

Butterflies rip apart my stomach

Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with

You're gonna harp, gripe, and

That's a hard Vicodin to swallow, so I scrap these

As pressure increases like khakis

I feel the ice cracking, because

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water (Shit)

But only when it freezes

It's the curse of the standard

That the first of the Mathers disc set

Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet

Will this step just be another misstep

To tarnish whatever the legacy, love or respect

I've garnered? The rhyme has to be perfect

The delivery flawless

And it always feels like I'm hittin' the mark

'Til I go sit in the car, listen and pick it apart

Like, \"This **** is garbage!\"

God's given me all this

Still I feel no different regardless

Kids look to me as a god, this is retarded

If only they knew, it's a facade and it's exhaustive

And I try not to listen to nonsense

But if you ******* are tryin' to strip me of my confidence

Mission accomplished

I'm not God-sent, Nas, Rakim, Pac, B.I.G., James Todd Smith

And I'm not Prince, so

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

'Cause I'm only human, just like you

Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

It's true, I'm a Rubik's — a beautiful mess

At times juvenile, yes, I goof and I jest

A flawed human, I guess

But I'm doin' my best to not ruin your

Expectations and meet 'em, but first

The \"Speedom\" verse, now Big Sean

He's goin' too fast

Is he gonna shout or curse out his mom?

There was a time I had the world by the balls

Eatin' out my palm

Every album song I was spazzin' the **** out on

And now I'm gettin' clowned and frowned on

But the only one who's looking down on me

That matters now's DeShaun

Am I lucky to be around this long?

Begs the question though

Especially after the methadone

As yesterday fades and the Dresden home

Is burnt to the ground

And all that's left of my house is lawn

The crowds are gone

And it's time to wash out the blonde

Sales decline, the curtains drawn

They're closin' the set

I'm still pokin' my head from out behind

And everyone who has doubt, remind

Now take your best rhyme, outdo it

Now do it a thousand times

Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares

Or gives a **** about your rhymes

And as I grow outta sight, outta mind

I might go outta mine

'Cause how do I ever let this mic go without a fight

When I made a ******' tightrope outta twine?

But when I do fall from these heights though, I'll be fine

I won't pout or cry or spiral down or whine

But I'll decide if it's my final bow this time around, 'cause

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

'Cause I'm only human, just like you

I've been making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do

'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

If I walked on water, I would drown

'Cause I'm just a man

But as long as I got a mic, I'm godlike

So me and you are not alike

*****, I wrote \"Stan\"
