Walk On Water ft. Beyoncé Lyrics

Walk On Water ft. Beyoncé - Eminem

...

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

(f**k)

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

Knowin' that no matter what bars I come with

You're gonna harp, 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 (Shit)

But only when it freezes

It's the curse of the standard

That the first of the mathers discs 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

Till I go sit in the car, listen and pick it apart

Like, this sh*t is garbage!

God's given me all this,

Still I feel no different regardless

Kids look to me as a god, this is retarded

If only they knew, it's a facade and it's exhaustive

And I try not to listen to nonsense

But if you b*tches are trying to strip me of my confidence.

Mission accomplished.

I'm not God-sent, Nas, Rakim, 'Pac, B.I.G., James Todd Smith

And I'm not Prince, so..

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

Cause I'm only human, just like you

Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me

The way that you do

Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

It's true, I'm a Rubik's; a beautiful mess

At times juvenile, yes, I goof and I jest

A flawed human, I guess

But I'm doing my best to not ruin your ex–

pectations and meet 'em, but first

The "Speedom" verse, now Big Sean

He's going too fast, is he gonna shout or curse out his mum?

There was a time I had the world by the balls, eating out my palm

Every album song I was spazzing the f**k out on

And now I'm getting clowned and frowned on

But the only one who's looking down on

Me that matters now's DeShaun

Am I lucky to be around this long?

Begs the question though

Especially after the methadone

As yesterday fades and the Dresden home

Is burnt to the ground and all that's left of my house is lawn

The crowds are gone

And it's time to wash out the blonde

Sales decline, the curtain's drawn

They're closing the set, I'm still poking my head from out behind

And everyone who has doubt, remind

Now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a thousand times

Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares

Or gives a f**k about your rhymes

And as I grow outta site, outta mind, I might go outta mine

Cause how do I ever let this mic go without a fight

When I made a f**king tightrope outta twine?

But when I do fall from these heights though, I'll be fine

I won't pout or cry or spiral down or whine

But I'll decide if it's my final bow this time around, cause..

I walk on water

But I ain't no Jesus

I walk on water

But only when it freezes

Cause I'm only human, just like you

I've been making my mistakes, oh if you only knew

I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do

Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh

If I walked on water, I would drown

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"
