Never Fallin'

Down

Never fallin' down down down

Never fallin' down

Never fallin' down down down

Never fallin' down

Even if i was blindsided by mac trucks

In the side street in the alley way in the foreign city i would still make it back home

On a highway no bulletins no street signs no other cars no radio no satellite

I still make it back home

Connected to the universe like a string of lights on the holiday

If one's out doesn't mean the demise of all who roam the stone

Feel the earth y'all the fire water and sky under his home under his clothes under his belt

It's the Orion sense of tones

I never regret the waking hours as the birth shot forth

On my feet not my fins i am a man to finish it out

Don't forget gravity laws the only thing keeping me from flight

Wings of space infinite night downward spiral not in sight

Down

Never falling down down down

Never falling down

Great there is no father its her and her offspring

Nobodys offering help skin aint softening

Axe chopped to the ankles her babies coughing

Maybe the check will come today the waits exhausting

She's the pillar so she cant be tilted

Give her sons the feeling as though they got a million to blow

Need no stilts to reach the stars

Teach the kids to reach with their heads and they each will be yours

I give a piece of me for her to have a piece of mind

Or a piece of your chicken cause its ramen all the time

She's thin and getting scared but she never lets on

Many men will not fall cause their mama's head strong (strong strong strong)

Down

Never fallin down down down

Never fallin down

Pick your feet on up why don't you get on up

Lift your spirits up damn i know this **** is tough

I flunked in high school my pops he left me young

I often lost my cool days i feel my mama's gun

I lost my only son when my girl she almost died

A bad abortion haunted by a baby's eyes

And every reason lies cause you know the truth inside

You're feeling like a coward like the wrong person died

But still you gotta ride let the years pass em by

Never really knowing why no questions why i'm always high

Down down down

Never falling down

Down down down

Never falling down

Look we slipping and sliding 808 big riding

Servin' rocks balling while they conquering and dividing

Teeth glistening shining listening to ourselves lying

Believe in a bleedin' ego still trying

Identifying with the why and the whats

Self hatin is the scars and the cuts that

Run deep down not giving a f*ck behind the sweet sound of the new blues

Rattling the truck full of sun roof to new shoes

Chrome neglecting the home

Disrespecting the zone that Sankofa should of shown us

Looking back before the time that they owned us

But never really owned a damn thing the spirit sounded like

Down

Never falling down down down

Never fallin down

I'm hella irresponsible and possibly the cause

Of the my subsequent downfall now I take a pause

And reflect on my karma and laws i've ignored

All the signs that could cause a turn and redirect my preferred

Course of action before the curse of my ashes

The rehabilitation of the baddest on the planet

Will set a mark a milestone of progress

The life changing tones of my heart and soul mean the most

Learning voices be the search and exhume all the skeletons

A room full of demons with an angel as a prisoner

She's tortured for the visitors the listeners who read between the lines

And stay inquisitive to dissect these sentences

Down

Never falling down down down

Never falling down

Last night i took a field trip kind of bent hopped a fence

Cut across a playground and lay down in a cemetery

Reflecting on my past present and current events

Speech slurring out venting to the moon or course she was answering me

Not literal but in the spiritual sense

We spoke me myself and i but i wasn't alone

In fact it felt that picture of a beach with footprints in the sand

You know the poem hanging in grandmamas home

Where does love come from where does it go when its gone

What takes its place and why does that space turn hard as stone

Another year i am older today in many ways i've grown

But in my head them questions still they roam

Riding a bike she said its like cycling in circles

With your eyes closed no hands blind faith is what she called it man

Said life's an ocean with a lot of commotion

Once you dive and ya its deep but if you could swim it ain't mattering

Down

Never falling down down down

Never falling down

Down down down

Never falling down
