[Intro]
I don't wanna let you down
Don't wanna let you down
Oh no, oh no
Only wish to make you proud
All I ever wanted was to make you proud
Are you proud of me
Are you proud of me
[Verse 1]
Man I'm living with my moms and pops, I got a lot to prove
Everyday they remind that it's cool, I feel the need to move
That's why I strive for perfection, always finding ways to improve
My music and my clothes, my speech and my selection
When it comes to all my.. I never bring 'em by
Don't want my baby sisters path to coincide with them slides
Neither do I want my family to get acquainted with that side
And I hate to tell a lie cause then it feels like I'm not living
I'm just cheating on my life, and when you think about it
Damn, it ain't even mine, it's hard to play along
When you're fighting demons that reside inside of yourself
I think I'm crashing on purpose but I still want to survive
While looking at all of my friends, reality it settles in, and I know that I'm not the only one
But f** it, I'll just go ahead and do my own damn thing and act like I'm the only one, cause
[Hook]
I don't wanna let you down
I don't wanna let you down
No, my only wish is to make you proud
All I ever wanted was to make you proud
I never wanna let you down
I never wanna let you down
[Verse 2]
I pop another pill, I don't wanna remember
Cause if I do, next time, I might take a couple more
It's funny how it goes, you sit alone
Telling a story, I would have preferred to leave untold
Cause to be honest, I don't really find it funny anymore
When you feel like it is over 'fore it started, you know for sure
If you didn't come to help then kindly just leave me alone
I'm having trouble with my judgment telling right from wrong
That's when you're leaking and you're broken and your feelings start to show
That's when you learn you have to let go of your fears to take control
So far away, but yet so close to your goals
Relax for an evening have toast for my toast
sh**'s doomed, and I'm tired and I feel like giving up
But I could bloom and I could rise if I could ride the last tide
So all them doubts that I'm having, put that bullsh** aside
This might not be hello but it's certainly not goodbye
[Hook]
I don't wanna let you down
I don't wanna let you down
Nooo, my only wish is to make you proud
All I ever wanted was to make you proud
I never wanna let you down
I never wanna let you down
[Bridge]
You all know me
I ain't no stranger to ya'll
I need you to help me
Sometimes I'm difficult, I know
But I'm there for you anyway
Could you please be there for me just one time
I need you to help me
Need you to believe me when I tell you that
[Hook]
I don't wanna let you down
I don't wanna let you down
Nooo, my only wish is to make you proud
All I ever wanted was to make you proud
I never wanna let you down
I never wanna let you down
