Falling Down

Verse 1:

Every step ahead I’m taking got me questioning my safety

Climbing so long for this place, I’m scared of each mistake I’m making

Don’t wanna have to start from scratch, won’t have the strength to keep from breaking

Used to be fixed when I just detached, now I got people on me waiting

Afraid if I go stray again, I’ll slip and cave today

But when I stay, the waves I make don’t hit the same, that distance gave me

Time to sit back, to piece it back together, say I’m crazy

But that’s actually what made the second phase amazing baby

That Booster Pack, the fuel can only go so far

In my head the goal was stars, ONE OF A KIND took me to Mars

Once you get the fan’s attention they expect an open jar

Every time you’re on a track it better hold up to that bar

That’s just how I see it, danger on the ground I’m seeing

Tell them what you do and stay consistent ‘til the crowd believes it

Now the doubt just creeps in, telling me I’m bound to be in

The deep abyss below me, what’s the difference? Jump a thousand feet in

Chorus:

Gravity’s working, I’m flipping and turning

I know there’s no coming back from this

When I hit the surface, get back up, keep working

But now I’m just falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again

Verse 2:

Do you know how hard it is to start again when you’ve tripped and fallen in?

Gotta find that confidence to conquer this, continue on again

Might’ve lost your honor in the audience but it’s really all in them

Cause they wanna see a fallen artist get back onto conjuring

Something bout an epic comeback, I’m so proud, already done that

But my fall from grace the first time round, fell from sitting on trash

Now the crown I’m lifting up has all my doubters betting on that slip up

Each good line I write, I throw out a million bad

Now I struggle with the highest pressure

Comfort can’t provide progression so I can’t rely on pleasure

I’m on the wrong path, if I jump, I hope my pride ain’t severed

When I reach the top ain’t finding treasure so I’m diving headfirst

Hiking up, can’t follow the road when my eyes are shut

A map would help but I am by myself

Though I’m fueled by the hunger inside my gut

I’m a clutz, hope the next one is right, man, I’ve tried enough

I run and I jump and say “bye summit”

The ground getting closer as I plummet, yea

Chorus:

Gravity’s working, I’m flipping and turning

I know there’s no coming back from this

When I hit the surface, get back up, keep working

But now I’m just falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again

Verse 3:

I’ve found myself back at the bottom, piles of scraps from lines I’ve jotted

So much trash that I could probably climb back from standing on ‘em

All the paths I’ve taken that misled me, I look at as problems

But the fall from higher up, helps me see how far I’ve gotten

I think I confuse my limits

Remember I used to think that falling was like doom and finish

If I said the landing didn’t hurt I’m lying, who am I kidding?

But the fact that I can always get back up’s the beauty in it

Now it’s a test of resilience, I am the best in the field in this

Even when I am against all the wilderness, I know I’m getting experience

I’ll get to the crest, I am serious, another fall, Sam is not fearing it

Gold is for number one but it is also what I’ll write the rest of my lyrics in

Find the strength, to climb again

Thought that I was tryna find the gems but I am finding Zen

If I pick a path and it ends up just like the rest

It’s nothing for me to just go fly to wind and jump to try again

Chorus:

Gravity’s working, I’m flipping and turning

I know there’s no coming back from this

When I hit the surface, get back up, keep working

But now I’m just falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again, ooh-ooh

I’m falling down again
