Lyrics

I walk on water But I ain't no Jesus I walk on water But only when it freezes (fuck) Why, are expectations so high? Is it the bar I set? My arms, I stretch, but I can't reach A far cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as Soon as I grab, squeeze I lose my grip like the flying trapeze Into the dark, I plummet Now the sky's blackening, I know the mark's high Butter-flies rip apart my stomach Knowing that no matter what bars I come with You're gonna hark, gripe, and that's a hard Vicodin to swallow So I scrap these, as pressure increases, like khakis I feel the ice cracking, because I walk on water But I ain't no Jesus I walk on water But only when it freezes It's the curse of the standard That the first of the Mathers disc set Always in search of the verse that I haven't spit yet Will this step just be another misstep To tarnish whatever the legacy, love or respect, I've garnered? The rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless And it always feels like I'm hitting the mark 'Til I go sit in the car, listen, and pick it apart Like, "this shit is garbage" God's given me all this Still I feel no different regardless Kids look to me like as a God, this is retarded If only they knew, it's a facade and it's exhaustive And I try to not listen to nonsense But if you bitches are trying to strip me of my confidence Mission accomplished I'm not God-sent Nas, Rakim, Pac, Big, James Todd Smith, and I'm not Prince, so I walk on water But I ain't no Jesus I walk on water (It's true, I'm a Rubik's, it's true) But only when it freezes (It's true)
