[Ab] Never falling down, down, down, never [Cm] falling down
Never [Ab] falling down, [Fm] down, [Ab] down, never [Cm] falling down
Never falling down, down, down, never falling down
Been a viral line, slidin' by Mack trucks on the side street in a alleyway
In a foreign city, I'd still make it back [Ab] home
Make it by highway, no bulletins, no street signs, no other cars, no radio, no satellite, I'd still make it back [Cm] home
Connected to the universe like a string of lights on a holiday
If one's out, doesn't mean the demise of [D] all's long [Ab]-stoned
Mr.
Churchild with the fire water in sky under his clothes, under his clothes, under his [D] belt
List of Orion's sensors [Cm] toned
I'll never regret the way canals spurt, shot forth on my feet
Not for fins, I am a man to finish it out
[Ab] Don't forget gravity laws, only thing keeping me from flight
Wing to [D] space, infinite night, downwards spiral, not in [Cm] sight
[Ab] Never falling down, down, down, never [Cm] falling down
Wait, there's a father, it's her and her offspring
Nobody to offer in [Em] help, skin ain't [Ab] softenin'
Axe chopped to the ankles, her baby's coughing
Maybe the check'll come today, the wait's [Cm] exhausting
She's gonna pill her soul, she can't be tilted
Give her sons the feeling as though they got a million [Ab] to blow
Need no stilts to reach the stars
Teach the kids to reach with their heads and they each will be yours
[Cm] I give a piece of me for her to have a piece of mine
Or a piece of your chicken cause it's rhymin' all the [Ab] time
She's thin and gettin' scared but she never lets on
Many men will not fall cause they mama's head [Cm] Strong, strong
Never [Ab] falling down, down, down, never [Cm] falling down
Pick your feet on up, why don't you get on up
[G] Lift your [Eb] spirits up, damn [F] I know this shit [Ab] is tough
I flunked in high school, my popsies left me young
I often lost [D] my cool days, [Eb] I feel my [Cm] mama's gun
I lost my only son when my girl, she almost died
A bad abortion, haunted [Dm] by a [Ab] baby's eyes
And every reason lies, cause you know the deep inside
You're feeling like [D] a coward, like the wrong person [Cm] died
But still you gotta ride, let the years pass them by
Never really knowing why, the [G] question's why I'm [Ab] always high
Down, down, down, never [Cm] falling down
[Ab] Down, down, down, never [Cm] falling down
Look, you're slippin' and slidin', 808 dick ridin'
Serving rocks, ballin' while they [G] conquerin' and [Ab] dividin'
Teeth glistenin', shinin', listenin' to ourselves lyin'
Leaving a bleedin' ego still [Cm] tryin'
Identifying with the why and the what
Self-hatin' is the scars and the cuts that run deep [Ab] down
Not givin' a fuck behind the sweet sound of the new blues
Rattlin' the strut with a [Cm] sunroof, took new shoes
Chrome, neglectin' the home
Disrespectin' the zone that Sankofa shoulda [Ab] shown us
Lookin' back before the time that they owned us
But never really owned the damn thing this lyric [Cm] sounded like
Down, [Ab] down, down, never [Cm] falling down
I'm hella irresponsible, I'm possibly the cause of my subsequent [Eb] downfall
Now I take a [Abm] pause and reflect on my karma and laws
I've ignored [D] all the signs that could cause a turn
And redirect [Cm] my preferred course of action before they curse in my ashes
The rehabilitation of the [D] baddest on the planet [Ab] would've set a mark
A milestone of progress, life-changing tones of why
[D] Heart and [Eb] soul mean the [Cm] most, learning forces me to search
Then exhume all my skeletons, a room full of demons
Where the [Dm] angel was a [Ab] prisoner, she's torture for the visitors
The listeners read between the lines and stay [D] inquisitive to dissect the [Cm] sentences
Down, [Ab] never falling down
[Fm] [Ab] Last [Cm] night I took a field trip, kinda bent, popped a fence
Cut across a plague, ran a leg down in a [Ab] cemetery
Reflectin' on my past, present, and current events
Speech slurring, I flinted to the moon, swear she was [Cm] answerin' me
Not literal, but in a spiritual sense
We spoke, me, myself, and I, but I wasn't alone
[Ab] In fact, it felt like a picture of a beach with footprints in the sand
You know that poem, hangin' in Grandmama's hall
Where does love [G] come from?
[C] Where does it go when it's gone?
[Cm] What takes its place and why did that space turn hard as stone?
[Ab] Another year, I am older today, in many ways I've grown
But in my head [D] them questions [Eb] still they roam
[Cm] Ridin' a bike, she said, it's like cyclin' in circles with your eyes closed
No hands, blind [G] faces, which is called [Ab] a man
Said life's an ocean with a lot of commotion
Once you dive in, yeah, it's deep, but if you could swim, it ain't [Cm] matterin'
