Never Fallin'
Living Legends Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Down
Never fallin down, down, down
Ever fallin down
Never fallin down, down, down
Ever fallin down

Even if I was blindsighted by Mac trucks in the side street in the alleyway in the born 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 south doesn't mean the mind of bar who roam the stome
Feel the earth, y'all, the fire, water, and sky, under his home, under his clothes, under his belt, its the varient sister tones
I never regret the wake and as the birth, shot forth on my feet, not my fins, I am a man defending the doubt
Dont forget gravity laws, the only thing keeping me from flight, wings of space, infinite night, down the sprial not in site

Down
Never falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

Great there is no father, it's her and her offspring
Nobody's offering help, skin ain't softening
Acts 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 some the feeling as though they have 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 __ all the time
Shes thin and getting scared but she never lets on
Many men will not fall cause their mamas head strong (strong strong strong)

Down
Never fallin down, down, down
Ever fallin down

Pick your feet on up, why dont you get on up?
Lift your spirits up, damn I know this shit is tough
I flunked in high school, my pops he left me young
I often lost my cool, days i feel my mamas gun
i lost my only son when my girl she almost died
had abortion haunted by a babies eyes
And every reason lies cause you know the truth inside
You're feeling like a coward like the wrong person died
But you still gotta ride let the years pass em by
Never really knowing why, the questions why im always high

Down, down, down
Nver falling down
Down, down, down
Nver falling down

Look, we slipping and sliding, 808 big riding
Surping rock, balling while they concuring and dividing
Teeth glistening shining, listening to ourselfs lying
bleep'n a bleeping ego still trying
identifying with the why or whats
self hate'n is the scars and the cuts that
run deep down
not giving a fuck
behind the sweet sound of the new blues
batteling the truck full of sun roof to new shoes
chrome, neglecting the home
disrespecting the zone
the alsdkjflsd should of shown us
looking back before the time that they owned us
but never really owned a damn thing that spirit
sounding like

Down
Never falling down, down, down
Ever fallin down

im hella irresponsible
im possibly the cause
of the my subsecuent
downfall
now a take a pause
and relfect on my karma
and laws ive ignored
all the signs that could cause
a turn and redirected my preferred
course of acting
before curse of actions
the rehabiliation of the baddest on the planet
will center mark a mile stone of progress
the life changing tones of why hearts
and sould mean the most
learning voices be the search
and exume all the skeletons
a room full of deamons with an angel as a prisoner
shes tortured for the visitors
the listeners who read between the lines
are saying equistive to the disective syntheses

Down
Never falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

last night i took a field trip
kind of bent, hopped a fence
cut across a pate by a lake
down by the cemetary
reflcecting on my past present and current events
speach slurring venting to the moon
wishing she would answer me
not literal
but in the spiritual sense
we spoke me myself and i
but i wasnt alone
in fact it felt that picture of a beach w/ footprints
and the sand
you know the poem hanging
in grandmas 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 ive grown
but in my head them
questions still they roam
riding the bike
she said its like cycling in curcle
with your eyes closed
no hands blind fath is what she called it man
said lifes an ocean with a lot of commotion
once you dive in your x deep
but if you could swim it aint mattering

Down
Never falling down, down, down
Ever down
Down down down
Ever falling down

that would hang in my grandmother's house


where does love come from?
I contemplate the origin of love


where does it go when its gone

what takes its place
what fills the void left by its absence

hard as stone
as immovable and unyielding as a solid rock


another year i am older today
another year has passed, and today I am older


in many ways ive grown
I have experienced personal growth and development in numerous aspects


but in my head them
but within my mind, those questions


questions still they roam
remain unanswered, wandering around


riding the bike
maneuvering through life's challenges


she said its like cycling in curcle
someone once told me it's like riding a bicycle in circles


with your eyes closed
but doing so blindly, without proper vision or guidance


no hands blind fath is what she called it man
without relying on anyone or anything, believing in something you can't see or fully understand


said lifes an ocean with a lot of commotion
life is a vast and tumultuous ocean, filled with chaos and turbulence


once you dive in your x deep
once you fully immerse yourself, you reach a certain depth


but if you could swim it aint mattering
but if you can navigate and adapt, the depth becomes irrelevant


Down, down, down
Never falling down


Never falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

Pick your feet on up
Why dont you get on up
Lift your spirits up
Damn I know this shit is tough

Let the years pass 'em by
Never really knowing why
The questions why I'm always high

Never falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

[Verse 1: Eligh]
Even if I was blindsided by mack trucks
In the side street, in the alley way, in a foreign city
I'd still make it back home
On a highway
No bulletins no street signs, no other cars, no radio, no satellite
I'd still make it back home
Connected to the universe like a string of lights on the holiday
If one's out doesn't mean demise of all who roam the stome
Feel the earth char with the fire water and sky under his home under his toes, under his flows, under his belt
It's the Brian who sets the tones
I never regret the way canals of birth shot me forth on my feet Not my fins, I am a man to finish it out
Don't forget gravity laws
Only thing keeping me from flight
Wings of space, infinite night
Downward spiral not in sight

[Hook: Sample]
Down
Never falling down, down, down
Ever falling down

[Verse 2: The Grouch]
Great there is no father
It's her and her offspring
Nobodys offering help, skin ain't softening
Acts chopped to the ankles, her babies coughing
Maybe the check will come today, the wait's exhausting
She's the pillar so, she can't 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 it's 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

Look

808 kick riding
Serving rocks, balling, while they conquering and dividing
Teeth glistening shining
Listening to ourselves lying
Believe in a bleeding ego, still trying
Identifying with the why and the whats
Self hating is the scars and the cuts that run deep down
Not giving a fuck behind the sweet sound of the new blues
Rattling the truck from the sun roof to new shoes
Chrome
Neglecting the home
Disrespecting the zone

Looking back before the times that they owned us
But never really owned a damn thing that spirit sounding like

Of my subsequent downfall
Now a 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 actions
The rehabilitation of the baddest on the planet
Will set a mark, a mile stone of progress
The life changing tones of why heart and soul mean the most
Learning voices be the search and exume all my skeletons
A room full of demons where the angel was a prisoner
She's tortured for the visitors
The listeners who read between the lines
And stay inquisitive to dissect these sentences

[Verse 6: Scarub]
Last night I took a field trip
Kind of bent, hopped a fence
Cut across a playground and laid down in the cemetery
Reflecting on my past, present, and current events
Speech slurring venting to the moon I swear 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 and the sand
You know the poem hanging in grandmama's home
Where does love come from?
Where does it go when it's 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 the bike she said it's 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 in, yeah it's deep
But if you could swim it ain't mattering

Ever falling down
Down, down, down
Ever falling down
