Chords and Lyrics Eminem - Walk On Water feat. Beyoncé
Artist : Eminem & Beyoncé
Song : Walk On Water
Chorus : Beyoncé
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but I ain't no Jesus
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but only when it freezes
Verse 1 : Eminem
Am
Why are expectations so high, is it the bar I set?
F
My arms, I stretch, but I can’t reach
C
A far cry from it, or it's in my grasp, but as soon as I grab
Am
Squeeze, I lose my grip like the flying trapeze, into the dark, I plummet
F
Now the sky's blackening, I know the mark’s high
C
Butterflies rip apart my stomach knowing that no matter what
Dm
Bars I come with, you're gonna harp, gripe, and that's a hard Vicodin to swallow
F
So I scrap these, as pressure increases
G
Like khakis, I feel the ice cracking, because
Chorus : Beyoncé
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but I ain't no Jesus
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but only when it freezes
Verse 2 : Eminem
Am
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
F
Will this step just be another misstep
C
To tarnish whatever the legacy, love or respect
Am
I've garnered, the rhyme has to be perfect, the delivery flawless
F
And it always feels like I'm hitting the mark
C
’Til I go sit in the car, listen, and pick it apart
Dm
Like, "this shit is garbage", God’s given me all this
Still I feel no different regardless
F
Kids look to me like as a god, this is retarded
G
If only they knew, it's a facade and it’s exhaustive
Dm
And I try to not listen to nonsense
But if you bitches are trying to strip me of my confidence
F
Mission accomplished, I'm not God sent
G
Nas, Rakim, Pac, B.I.G., James Todd Smith, and I'm not Prince, so
Chorus : Beyoncé
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but I ain't no Jesus
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but only when it freezes
Post Chorus : Beyoncé
F G Am
’Cause I'm only human, just like you
C F G Am
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
C F G Am
I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do
C F G
'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
Verse 3 : Eminem
Am
It's true, I'm a Rubik's, a beautiful mess, at times juvenile, yes
F
I goof and I jest, a flawed human, I guess
C
But I'm doing my best to not ruin your ex
Am
pectations and meet 'em, but first, the "Speedom" verse
Now, Big Sean, he's going too fast
F
Is he gonna shout or curse out his mom?
C
There was a time I had the world by the balls, eating out my palm
Dm
Every album, song I was spazzin' the fuck out on
And now I'm getting clowned and frowned on
F
But the only one who's looking down on me that matters
G
Now's Deshaun, am I lucky to be around this long?
Dm
Begs the question, though especially after the methadone
F
As yesterday fades and the Dresden home is burnt to the ground
G
And all that's left of my house is lawn, the crowds are gone
Am
And it's time to wash out the blonde, sales decline, the curtains drawn
F
They're closing the set, I'm still poking my head from out behind
C
And everyone who has doubt, remind
Am
Now take your best rhyme, outdo it, now do it a thousand times
F C
Now let 'em tell ya the world no longer cares or gives a fuck about your rhymes
Dm
And as I grow outta sight, outta mind, I might go outta mine
F
'Cause how do I, ever let this mic go without a fight
G
When I made a fuckin' tightrope outta twine?
Dm
But when I do fall from these heights, though, I'll be fine
F
I won't pout or cry or spiral down or whine
G
But I'll decide if it's my final bow this time around 'cause
Chorus : Beyoncé
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but I ain't no Jesus
C Bb Am F G
I walk on water, but only when it freezes
Post Chorus : Beyoncé
F G Am
’Cause I'm only human, just like you
C F G Am
Making my mistakes, oh if you only knew
C F G Am
I don't think you should believe in me the way that you do
C F G
'Cause I'm terrified to let you down, oh
Outro : Beyoncé & Eminem
C Bb Am C
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"
