Lyrics:
A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a 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
'Cause 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 laying 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

Even at 51 years old, this song still gives me the chills. I was living life like every character in this video. Been with over 200 women, sold drugs in Baltimore throughout the 80s and 90s, got shot and went to prison for years. This was all after dealing with a dysfunctional family inside of the house and bullied outside of the house. But I'm thankful to still be alive.

Chasing Waterfalls" is TLC's way of expressing how people chase intangible dreams with no thought of the consequences. The first verse is talking about an inner city mother-and-son relationship. He is chasing "waterfalls" (money and respect by dealing drugs), but his mother knows this cannot end well. The second verse deals with a man's relationship with a woman. His "waterfall" is casual sex - he has a "natural obsession for temptation." This could mean he is cheating on someone or the woman he is seeing is cheating on someone. Either way, he contracts HIV and dies ("three letters took him to his final resting place"). TLC were big on AIDS awareness - Left Eye would often wear condoms attached to her clothes and in her glasses to promote safe sex.

I like this song so much because it's like a friendly warning about life's challenges and risks. It talks about the temptations and dangers that people face, urging them to stick to the safer path. The lyrics use the metaphor of chasing waterfalls instead of sticking to rivers and lakes that you're used to. It's like saying, "Don't go after big, risky dreams that might lead to trouble. Stick to what you know is safe and steady." The song reflects on issues like HIV/AIDS and drug abuse, advising listeners to be cautious and make wise choices.
