"Waterfalls"
A lonely mother gazing out of her 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
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
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
Y'all don't hear me?
(rpt 1)
I see a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms
Have come and gone leavin' a trace of not
Good-given ray, is it because my life is ten
Shades of gray, I pray all ten fade away
Seldom 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 anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cri endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
Who's to bl a shame
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim the insane and name his 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
(rpt 1, 1)
"No Scrubs"
Oh, ho, ho
[Chilli]
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fine and is
Also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass (on his, on his, on his)
So... (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of time and (no)
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
[Chilli]
Well a scrubs is checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know he can not approach me
Cause I'm looking like class and he's looking like trash
Can't get it wit' a deadbeat ass (deadbeat)
So... (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of time (no)
Repeat 1
Bridge
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes son, I'm talking to you
If you live at home with your momma (I'm talking to you)
Oh yes son, I'm talking to you
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes son, I'm talking to you
Wanna get me with no money
Oh no, I don't want no oh
No scrub
No scrub
No, no
No scrub
No scrub
No, no (no)
Repeat 1 until fade
