Waterfalls
Lanz Pierce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the time is right the curtain rises
When I don't know i just improvise it
All these feelings that I feel inside me
Start to rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls
Still got promises to make it good on
Debts to be repaid, haters next to stick my foot on

Yeah, just call me rolling stone
I'll be sleeping out in my car
Where I lay my head it's my home
I got hurt you see in my heart, fire in my soul
A future full of promises and a past filled with ghosts
Got a neck, got a niche, got some pain, i need release
Like a pressure cooker on the stove my bust bubble will heet
Got some bills piling up like Chris once i will not creech
Got some friends, got some freaks, got a couple shows this week
And I love 'round the block, cuz they love me in the streets
Been through the mug like a pair of clicks
Don't look down can't see defeat
Blow that cush that make me deep, I know that pussy make you weak
What I got is not a level, what I got I give you piece (yeah yeah)

When the time is right the curtain rises
When I don't know i just improvise it
All these feelings that I feel inside me
Start to rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls
Still got promises to make it good on
Debts to be repaid, haters next to stick my foot on

Yeah I'm an artist I need agnolegment yeah
I'm a women I need love yeah
I'm a daughter I owe respect yeah
I'm a girlfriend I need trust
Me and my girls we need us, conversations over dinner
Break up that she going through, I'm going through it with her
Said she 'bout to give up, I told her "don't be no quitter"
I told her "let go" and thank God it's the best advice I could give her, uh
Pretty girls making ugly decisions
Hit you twenties now you feeling like your time is ticking
But tonight I'm sipping, like bottle cats, we twisted
My mind is on the dick, my hand is where the zip is

When the time is right the curtain rises
When I don't know i just improvise it
All these feelings that I feel inside me
Start to rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls
Still got promises to make it good on
Debts to be repaid, haters next to stick my foot on

What if I wasn't tripping
What if I wasn't trippin'
Called a dick outcast so big it don't fit in
Got a sixth sense intuition
A sixth sense ambition
Every day is judgmentday based on my image

When the time is right the curtain rises
When I don't know i just improvise it
All these feelings that I feel inside me
Start to rush in like waterfalls yeah




rush in like waterfalls yeah
rush in like waterfalls (waterfalls)

Great sound and message in her craft. Refreshing sound and will breath fresh air into the game as she put more music out. I am ole school where I have to have a positive message in a work of art and this provides that.
