[Verse 1]
[C]I w[Bb]alk o[Gm]n wate[Am]r[Dm]
But I ain't no [G]Je sus
[C]I w[Gm]alk on wat[Am]er[Dm]
But only when it [G]freezes [Am](fuck)

[Verse 2]
Why, are expectations so [Am]high?
Is it the bar I set?
My arms, [F]I stretch, but I can't reach
A far cry from [C]it,
or it's in my grasp, but as
Soon as I grab, [Am]squeeze
I lose my grip like the flying trapeze
Into the dark, I plummet
Now the [F]sky's blackening,
I know the mark's high
Butter- flies [C]rip apart my stomach
Knowing that no matter what
[Dm]bars I come with
You're gonna hark, gripe,
and that's a hard Vicodin to swallow
So I scrap [F]these, as pressure increases,
like [G]khakis

[Verse 3]
I feel the ice cracking, because
[C]I w[Bb]alk on wat[Am]er[Dm]
But I ain't no [G]Je sus
[C]I w[Bb]alk on wat[Am]er[Dm]
But only when [G]it freezes
[Am]It's the curse of the

[Verse 4]
standard
That the first of the Mathers disc set
Always in search of the verse
that I haven't spit yet
[F]Will this step just be another
misstep
[C]To tarnish whatever the legacy,
love or [Am]respect, I've garnered?
The rhyme has to be perfect,
the delivery flawless
[F]And it always feels like
I'm hitting the mark
'Til I go sit in [C]the car, listen,
and pick it apart
Like, [Dm]"This shit is garbage"
God's given me all this
Still I feel no different regardless
Kid[F]s look to me like as a God,
this is retarded
If only [G]they knew,
it's a facade and it's exhaustive
[Dm]And I try to not listen to nonsense
But if you bitches [C]are trying to
strip me of my [Dm]confidence
Mission accom[F]plished
I'm not God- sent
[G]Nas, Rakim, Pac, Big, James Todd Smith,
and I'm not Prince, [C]so
I [Bb]walk on wa

[Verse 5]
[Am]ter[Dm]
But I ain't no [G]Je sus
[C]I w[Bb]alk on w[Am]a ter (It's true,
I'm a [Dm]Rubik's, it's true)
But only when it [G]freezes
(It's true)

[Verse 6]
'Cause I'm only hu[F]man,
[G]just like [Am]you
[C]Making my mis[F]takes,
oh if you [G]only [Am]knew
I don't [C]think you should be[F]lieve
in me the [G]way you [Am]do
'Cause I'm [Em]ter r[C]i [F]fied to let you [G]down,
oh

[Verse 7]
[Am]It's true, I'm a Rubik's, a beautiful mess
At times juvenile, yes, I goof [F]and I jest
A flawed human, I guess
But [C]I'm doing my best to
not ruin [Am]your expectations
And meet 'em, but first, the
"Speedom" verse
Now, Big Sean,
he's going too fast
Is he gonna shout or curse out
his [F]mom?
There was a time I had the [C]world by the balls,
eating out my palm
Every al[Dm]bum, song I was
spazzin' the fuck out on
And now I'm getting
clowned and frowned on
But [F]the only one who's looking down
on me that matters [G]now's Deshaun
Am I lucky to be around [Dm]this long?
Begs the question, though
Especially after the methadone
As yesterday fades and the [F]Dresden
home is burnt to the ground
An[G]d all that's left of
my house is lawn
The crowds [Am]are gone
And it's time to wash out the blonde
Sales decline,
the curtains [F]drawn
They're closing the set,
I'm still poking my head out from behind
[C]And everyone who has doubt, remind
[Am]Now take your best rhyme, outdo it,
now do it a thousand [F]times
Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer [C]cares
or gives a fuck about [Dm]your rhymes
And as I grow outta sight, outta mind,
I might go outta mine
'Cause [F]how do I,
ever let this mic go without a fight
[G]When I made a fuckin'
tightrope outta [Dm]twine?
But when I do fall from these heights,
though, I'll be fine
I won't [F]pout or cry
or spiral down or whine
But I'll de[G]cide if it's my final

[Verse 8]
bow this time around 'cause
[C]I w[Bb]alk on wat[Am]er[Dm]
But I ain't no Je[G]sus
[C]I w[Bb]alk on w[Am]a ter[Dm]
But only when [G]it freezes

[Verse 9]
'Cause I'm only hu[F]man,
[G]just like [Am]you
I been [C]making my mis[F]takes,
oh if [G]you only [Am]knew
I don't [C]think you should be[F]lieve in me
the [G]way that you [Am]do
'Cause I'm [Em]ter r[C]i [F]fied to let you [G]down, oh
If [C]I w[Bb]alked on w[F]a ter,
I would [C]drown

[Verse 10]
'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"
