Can’t let them down

Yeah… Too many people countin’ on me… Too many dreams on my back… I can’t fold, I can’t break… Let’s go. Every step that I take, I hear voices in my head, Tellin’ me to keep pushin’, but the pressure got me dead. Mama workin’ late nights, doin’ all that she can, Lookin’ at me like, “Son, you gon’ grow to be the man.” Homies say they ridin’, they believe in the dream, But if I fail, man, what’s that gon’ mean? I been fightin’ my fears, I been drownin’ in doubt, Tryna carry all this weight, but I’m startin’ to bow. I can’t let ‘em down, no, I can’t lose, Got too many prayin’ that I make the right moves. But what if I slip? What if I fall? What if I can’t live up to it all? I can’t let ‘em down, no, I gotta keep goin’, Through the highs, through the lows, I can’t stop showin’. Even when I break, even when I drown, I swear to God, I won’t let ‘em down. Look, I been facin’ demons in the dark all alone, Smilin’ for the fam, but I’m hurtin’ to the bone. Tryna be the strong one, tryna be the light, But sometimes even heroes need someone to make it right. I don’t sleep, I just grind, I just pray for a sign, Tell me all this pain gon’ be worth it in time. Yeah, they see me stand tall, but they don’t feel the weight, All the dreams on my shoulders, man, I hope it ain’t too late. I can’t let ‘em down, no, I can’t lose, Got too many prayin’ that I make the right moves. But what if I slip? What if I fall? What if I can’t live up to it all? I can’t let ‘em down, no, I gotta keep goin’, Through the highs, through the lows, I can’t stop showin’. Even when I break, even when I drown, I swear to God, I won’t let ‘em down. I know they see me strong, but I feel weak inside, Tryna hold it all together, but the pressure don’t subside. I can’t fail, I can’t fold, I can’t let ‘em see me break, But sometimes I wonder, how much more can I take? Yeah… I won’t let ‘em down… No matter what it takes… Even if it breaks me.
