TLC, Waterfalls /Song Share


A lonely mother gazining out of the window
Staring at her 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
Cuz 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 layin 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 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…

Y’all 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 your moving too fast(2x)

Come on

I seen a rainbow yesterday
But to many storms have come and gone
Leaving a trace
Of not one God giving ray
Is it because
My life is ten shades of grey
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise him for the seven days

And like his promise is true
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
To bring my life to anew
Clear and blue and unconditional
Skies have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries,
My only bleeding hope
Is for the folk who can’t cope
With such an endurine pain
That it keeps them in the pourin’ rain
Who’s to blame for tootin caine into your own vein
What a shame you shoot and aim
For some one elses blame
You claim the insane for
This day and time for falling
Prey to crime I say the system’s
Got you victim to your own mind

Dreams are hopeless aspirations
In hopes of coming true
Believe in yourself
The rest is up to me and you

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 your moving too fast X2 (faded)

McHammer, U Can’t Touch This/Music Share

LOVE THIS, it was great back in the day! Enjoy!

 


Lyrics

You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this

My, my, my my music hits me so hard
Makes me say, “Oh my Lord”
Thank you for blessin’ me
With a mind to rhyme and two hype feet
It feels good, when you know you’re down
A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I’m known as such
And this is a beat, uh, you can’t touch

I told you homeboy (You can’t touch this)
Yeah, that’s how we livin’ and ya know (You can’t touch this)
Look in my eyes, man (You can’t touch this)
Yo, let me bust the funky lyrics (You can’t touch this)

Fresh new kicks, and pants
You gotta like that, now you know you wanna dance
So move outta yo seat
And get a fly girl and catch this beat
While it’s rollin’, hold on!
Pump a little bit and let ’em know it’s goin’ on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission, so fall on back
Let ’em know, that you’re too much
And this is a beat, uh, they can’t touch

Yo, I told you (you can’t touch this)
Why you standin’ there, man? (You can’t touch this)
Yo, sound the bell, school’s in, sucka (You can’t touch this)

Give me a song, or rhythm
Makin’ ’em sweat, that’s what I’m givin’ ’em
Now, they know
You talkin’ ’bout the Hammer, you’re talkin’ ’bout a show
That’s hyped, and tight
Singers are sweatin’, so pass them a wipe
Or a tape, to learn
What’s it gonna take in the 90’s to burn
The charts? Legit
Either work hard or you might as well quit

That’s word because you know (You can’t touch this)
(You can’t touch this)
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

Go with the flow, it is said
That if you can’t groove to this then you probably are dead
So wave yo hands in the air
Bust a few moves, run your fingers through your hair
This is it, for a winner
Dance to this and you’re gonna get thinner
Move, slide your rump
Just for a minute let’s all do the bump
(Bump, bump, bump)

Yeah (You can’t touch this)
Look, man (You can’t touch this)
You better get hype, boy, ’cause you know you can’t (You can’t touch this)
Ring the bell, school’s back in
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

Every time you see me, the Hammer’s just so hyped
I’m dope on the floor and I’m magic on the mic
Now why would I ever stop doin’ this?
With others makin’ records that just don’t hit
I’ve toured around the world, from London to the Bay
It’s “Hammer, go Hammer, MC Hammer, yo Hammer”
And the rest can go and play
You can’t touch this

You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
Yeah (You can’t touch this)
I told you (Can’t touch this)
Too hot (Can’t touch this)
Yo, we outta here (Can’t touch this)
