iPod

A lonely mother gazing out of the 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 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 2




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

Ya'll dont'hear me

Chorus



Rap



I seen a rainbow yesterday

But too many storms have come

Leaving a trace of not one God-given ray


Is it because my life is ten shades of grey

I pray all ten fade away

Seldem 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 a new

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

With such an endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pouring rain

Who's to blame for shootin'caine into you're 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
