Never Let Me Down

[Intro]
When it comes to being true, at least true to me (Yeah, that's that shit right there)
One thing I found, one thing I found, oh no you never let me down

[Verse 1]
Born October 31st, 2001
Back then I couldn't comprehend I was surrounded with love
Even though I was born second you made me feel like I'm first
And for the life of me, I don't think that you know what that's worth
You named me Joseph, like the one in the Bible, had many dreams
It seems we're similar because no one believes
But there's a reason people choose to shy away from the truth
A few think I can do it and one of them is you
I just don't want to let you down because you always held me up
You wanted my mind to be free like the key to some handcuffs
And it's sad I'll have to leave but it's a part of growing up
I guess that's why you told me I shouldn't be in any rush

[Verse 2]
Worked at Payless trying to make end meet
I couldn't pay less attention, but you put shoes on my feet
For your family raising two boys, wanted stability
God fearing and handling every responsibility
But now I'm older and a normal life don't appeal to me
But life is coming so fast, it almost don't seem real to me
So when I ask you questions trying to gain some advice, it's because I wanted to be you, even a little bit alike, like

[Chorus]
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
One thing I found, one thing I found
I just don't want to let you down
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
One thing I found, one thing I found
Oh no, you never let me down

[Verse 3]
Even if we're like two countries at war, trying to kill each other
Wherever you're at in life, I'll always be your brother
Lies don't exist in our world, we're real to one another
And if they come at you they better be ready to take cover
It's like I have a shell because you always have my back
And if they're slugging shells your way, you know I'd have to take that
I would die for you, my bro, you're one of my own, family, second in command, next one on the throne
Not above you, we're equals, you're always standing by my side
We hustle together, 24/7 on the grind
Even when I was bad you always pushed me along
So this right here?
Family this is your song

[Verse 4]
I don't care what anyone else thinks, who are you to me?
If you're not helping me get proceeds I'll proceed to the currency
And currently paper is constantly in my thoughts
Life is like ball, no apologies to who I crossed
Even through all mistakes and every single loss
Gotta provide for everyone, succeed at all costs
Because no matter how cocky or arrogant I may sound
The first thing on my mind, I just don't want to let you down, down

[Chorus]
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
One thing I found, one thing I found
I just don't want to let you down
When it comes to being true, at least true to me
One thing I found, one thing I found
Oh no, you never let me down
