    "comment": "Produced by Rico Wade.\n\n\"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.\nhttps://bit.ly/308Z1q5",
