But I think youre moving too fast
Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation
But he just cant see

But all he can say is, ' Baby is good to me'
One day he goes and take 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
Yall, don't you hear 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 youre moving too fast

And the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have
