Waterfalls
He aint about that ratchet life, didn't wanna be a nigga
Wanted to be better for his brothers and his sisters
Wanted something for his self go to college build a future
Make his mama proud and be better than his father
But the circumstances changed he fell victim to the streets
A hustler at 15 and was dead at 18himself
Yeah they found him in the traphouse dead overdose on meth
Don't go chasing waterfalls, these rivers and lakes aint for you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
But nobody really knew him cause be stayed to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
Lil mama was so innocent, lets say we call her Precious
She had a light so bright didn't know no one could dim it
Didn't know that he was touching her every single night
But she loved him he was family so she thought it was alright
Didn't know she wasn't safe still too young to know the difference
About protection or what AIDS is so it just went undetected
8 years old all alone brother dead daddy gone
And her mama knew what he was doing all along
Don't go chasing waterfalls, these rivers and lakes aint for you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Don't go chasing waterfalls, these rivers and lakes aint for you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
Wanted to be better for his brothers and his sisters
Wanted something for his self go to college build a future
Make his mama proud and be better than his father
But the circumstances changed he fell victim to the streets
A hustler at 15 and was dead at 18himself
Yeah they found him in the traphouse dead overdose on meth
Don't go chasing waterfalls, these rivers and lakes aint for you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
But nobody really knew him cause be stayed to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
Lil mama was so innocent, lets say we call her Precious

Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Baby please don't chase these waterfalls
Don't go chasing waterfalls, these rivers and lakes aint for you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, if this aint what you use to
Don't go chasing waterfalls, the streetlights will catch up to you
Don't go chasing waterfalls, cause for you its all or nothing
