Lyrics

[Intro: Steven Young & Dave East]
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down (Right now)
Don’t let me down (Don’t do it)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down (Too many lies)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down (Feel good)

[Verse 1: Dave East]
Turnin’ off my phone, don’t need no interruption
Shout out to the homies, they been really hustlin’
I ain’t shoppin’ where y’all shoppin’, rather get it custom
These foreign seats feel good, I used to ride on busses
And when you get the power, you could push a button
Sirens every hour, [?] rushin’
I’m taken to the point where it ain’t no discussion
Gotta situate your brothers, they might be your crutches
I’ma take my time, it ain’t no point in rushin’
I know the feelin’, when you see it but wanna touch it (I know)
You wanna taste it
German model cars, you wanna race ’em
They wanna tell you that shit basic ’cause they only racist (Race)
Get tired of askin’ for it to the point you take it
They only made records, so you try to break ’em
And when we get this money, they gon’ probably hate us
They think you got the answers, be somebody famous
You could be the witness, die for observation
I started up a business, legal operation
When the judge done took your time, ain’t got no time for wastin’
They set the standards to the hustlin’, but I’m just tryna raise ’em

[Chorus: Steven Young & Dave East]
Don’t let
Don’t let (Promises)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let
Don’t let
Don’t let me down
Don’t let
Don’t let
Don’t let me down
Don’t let
Don’t let
Don’t let me down

[Verse 2: Benny the Butcher]
Yo, I was a OG at 30, that’s a young big homie (Facts)
You been hustlin’? Show me, I’m the one and only
Cut ties with broads, most of them switched on me (Uh uh)
You not a stallion, bitch, you just a one-trick pony
Waited my whole life for this moment, I’m livin’ in it (True)
In the streets I kinda hit a brick wall, had to sit a minute (Damn)
You know them cases I caught, they hurt, but I benefitted
The best thing to happen to me was a prison sentence
I don’t want awards for it, used to want a Ford Taurus
Now I’m world tourin’, foreign, German four-doorin’
Next time you reach out for help, I’m gon’ ignore it (It’s over)
Your family or your sanity, what’s more important?

[Chorus: Steven Young & Dave East]
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let me down (Don’t let me down)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down (Don’t let me down)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let
Don’t let me down
Don’t let me down
(Don’t let)
(Don’t let)
Don’t let me down (Don’t let me down)

[Verse 3: Dave East]
We started out as kings, how we live as slaves? (Kings)
You ain’t really with it, you just in the way
Gemini nigga, born with different ways (Gemini)
When it’s lit, we hit they block a hundred different days
To appreciate the sun, you gotta feel the rain (Feel it)
I’m comfortable where I’m at, don’t need a different lane (Comfortable)
I done really felt fear, I done been afraid
I done really been embarrassed, I done been ashamed
Now when you go to Paris, it’s a different plane
And when you get established, niggas feel your pain (They feel it)
Emotions get involved and nigga’s feelings change
A couple million dollars later and I’m still the same (Still me)
I’m talkin’ murder, couple dollars, it could get arranged (Arranged)
Niggas tryna drive a Bentley, tryna spin a Range (Rover)
Goin’ crazy ’bout my name, bitch, I been insane (Insane)
I spin the tail, I pray you don’t let me down (Don’t let me down)

[Outro: Steven Young & Dave East]
Don’t let
Don’t let
Don’t let me down (Don’t let me down)
Don’t let
Don’t let me down
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let me down
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let (Don’t let)
Don’t let me down
There’s so many laps
Broken promises
I don’t believe none of them, gotta tell me
Show me
