Chasing water falls on the west side
You ain't been the same since you Left Eye
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Chasing water falls on the west side
You ain't been the same since you Left Eye
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Problems come and go but this one seem to linger
I think I'm losing my patients
I can't find the the strength to
Try and go the distance
I don't know what I'm afraid of
I can't even see the goal for much further
Please remind me what I'm made of
Cuz I can't see it know I'm destined to be it
Feel like I can't reach it take this this thorn from my side
Breathin', know here for a reason and I can't be defeated
I need you by my side
15 mins til my 15 min break
Took that came back 15 mins late
I can stand my job still I work so hard you know
For them it seems so easy, for me feels impossible
Cuz I'm blind eyed no fruit on my vine
Too much pressure to do good all the time
How long do I gotta feel like this
Loneliness be creeping on me often
Failure seems to be the only option
The devil wanna see me in a coffin
Don't nobody wanna see me poppin
How long do I gotta feel like this
How long do I gotta feel like this
Chasing water falls on the west side
You ain't been the same since you Left Eye
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Chasing water falls on the west side
You ain't been the same since you Left Eye
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
Don't get on that plane Aaliyah
I don't wanna speak on how often cry
Can't even tell the last time I slept
Biceps burning from wiping my eyes
Can't even explain how hard I wept
How I'm s'pose to see where I'm goin'
Too many bodies in the way of my moment
It's scary tryna get there anyway
Plus I'm scared that when I get it I'ma blow it
I want it, I want it ain't I ready lord
Why do I feel stagnant s'pose to move steady forward
I done heard so many no's feel like my faiths warpin'
So man nay's in my stable thought I had horses
9 times outta 10 issa German Shepard
Barkin negativity but I'm so receptive
How long do I gotta feel like this
Got me checkin the m likes on the gram
Do they know who I am, is my song they jam
Is my promo spam
How much that check this week
How much is my check this week
Wait, why is my check this weak
I'm addicted to progress but failure is hard to digest
But they say it's part of the process well I guess
My goals just seem so far fetched
Family done came a long way from the projects
To stop here, how do you stop fear when it's in my ear
Blatantly baitin' me faithfully shadin' me
Saying my faith is just make believe
I don't belong here
Didn't you the creator, create me to create too
My father a carpenter, mother a fighter didn't I inherit their hands too
How do I access the power that's dormant inside
Why do I cry what happen to my eyes
They glisten and shine when ever I visualize the vision in side
But then I revive and can't get it to come alive
I thought I only needed the faith the size of mustards seed
When I graduated my faith was the size of tumble weed
Then I went blind its dark in here Im lonely
Don't go chasing water falls (Don't go chasing water falls na na)
You ain't been the same (If you run you just might fall na na)
Don't get on that plane (Don't get on that plane)
Don't go chasing water falls please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're use to
