I walk on water
But I ain't no Jesus
I walk on water
But only when it freezes fuck
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 butter
flies 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 discs 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 shit 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 bitches 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 ex
pectations 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 fuck 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 fuck
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 fuckin'
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
Bitch I wrote Stan
