Dead Men - Let You Down lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] You have to do, what I ask of you And there's a task I have for you Tackle a track with a rap and attack With your natural knack and your aptitude You do that, I ain't mad at you I'll pat your back and say, “That'll do” Then just sit back and then when you think back You'll be happy you did what you had to do ‘Cause you are gifted Can't bus tables, too artistic It's too sadistic, to ever think that You could ever become another statistic This is kismet, you gotta foster All the sh** that, you got to offer You got a lot to, so you oughtta Remember what you got before you forgot to But you wanna be forgotten And don't wanna be reminded And don't wanna put the time in When a rhyme needs redefining Fine then, but I'm trying To figure out why you're not trying Try to speak to you, ‘bout unspeakable Things, but you keep trying to hide them When you gotta let go, tell me What in the f** you're upset for? When you've been given any and every Amenity from the get go What in the hell ever made you Anything other than grateful Or made you behave in a way that was Anything other than utterly thankful, huh? [Chorus 1] Running... Along Going... Alone I won't let you down (2X) [Verse 2] People are strange and I'm becoming a stranger So I'm running away, ‘cause I got nothing to stay for All I want is a change, ‘cause I don't think I can take more Need I really have to explain more?... OK we're All on our own, getting farther from home And embarking on different chapters, and there's Factors that dictate whether we move Forwards or go backwards, that ain't Under our jurisdiction, what a wonderful we live in Where we wish for an existence other than the one we're given Given all the sh** we been in We should be living with no regrets But I've seen more, than I can ignore So I can forgive but I won't forget I'm the best at holding grudges, I won't let you go unpunished ‘Cause you lied when you professed and attested to no injustice You gotta fight for the lost lives That got lost and discarded and tossed into boxes of archives Left there to rot, forever forgotten Just ‘cause they'd fallen on hard times So if you're sinking I won't ever let you drown ‘Cause G-d may let you die, but I will never let you down, no [Chorus 2] Running... Along/ Going... Alone I won't let you down (2X)
