Description
Like a diary in the rhythm of breathing, this song swings between the walls, reflecting the inner scars that whisper, ‘hang on.’ There is no pathos here - only an honest admission that even the strong get tired. Each word sounds like a step on thin ice, and the beats like the pounding of a heart trying not to fall.
In these lines - light through smoke, faith through fatigue. It feels like someone is pulling themselves together in a dark room, looking at the sky through a crack in the ceiling and habitually sending kisses to the stars. The music seems to hold your hand, teasing your fears and at the same time giving you the strength to move on, even if the path is rough and imperfect.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I try not to fall
Not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
I hear voices from afar
They remind me not to fall not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
And I'm fighting with my scars
They remind not to fall not to fall
And this ain't no joke
No experiment
Can't gain no discernment when you staring at a smoking mirror
My story like a folklore folks they heard it
My first real tour was in Europe
Wouldn't be real if I said I don't get nervous
Wouldn't be smart if I trusted you all with
My heart still I fall again
I'm not bargaining
At the cost of living
I'm overcharging
You can't fake reality
And you can't wear the crown
If you ain't gon be solid
Who told the king that he wears royal garments
Knowing he got nothing is appalling
Uh
Let's get it started
Uh
From the bottom of my heart
Is where I find the cure and the cause to my problems
And when I look up at the sky I'm in awe
Tryna climb to the stars
As I try not to fall
I try not to fall not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
I hear voices from afar
They remind me not to fall not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
And I'm fighting with my scars
They remind not to fall not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
I hear voices from afar
They remind me not to fall not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
And I'm fighting with my scars
They remind not to fall not to fall
And the flow so laminar
If you lived the life I live you wouldn't respect the law of averages
The world changing I'm the catalyst
Less words, more action the mentality we tryna have
The album classic if I'm doing it
Whether i'm gold or aluminum
I saved souls
And a few of them
Come to my shows and we bond like communion
That keeps me going when I'm low and need some fuel again
I know I'm strong but I struggle cause I'm human too
And I'm growing I'm unlearning everything I knew
Like my errors don't define me, my living do
Life itself isn't frightening it's the risky moves
I resonate because I'm dealing with hearts
The business is hard
I push it to the limits no matter the results
How u restore order when the feeling is off
How u remain hopeful when you think of your losses
Can you live with em?
How we remain close while we drifting apart
If I take a blurry picture u consider it art?
And when I feel low I blow a kiss to the stars
I welcome all my angels when they visit or call
And even though it's difficult I give it my all
Through the storm
Through the fog
Hear me roar
Hear me stomp
Breaking down
Every wall
While I try
Not to fall
I try not to fall
Not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
I hear voices from afar
They remind me not to fall
Not to fall
I'm surrounded by these walls
And I'm fighting with my scars
They remind me not to fall
Not to fall
