Letra Don't look down Homeboy Sandman

Don't look down

Sometimes I go up on the roof
And I walk across the ledge
I be careful not to trip ‘cause if I slipped then I’d be dead
I don’t do it for adrenaline or do it for the rush
No, I do it just for proving to myself I got the guts
Deep inside me it reminds me that the stakes are very high
Might not live to see the morning any moment I could die
Furthermore that going for it is the meaning of my life
Like to think that you could see it when you look me in the eye
I was not always a expert walking ledges hopping roofs
When I started being daring I’s so scared I couldn’t move
Still I’d go up to the top and didn’t stop ‘cause I was spooked
All I needed was some practicing to get into my groove
A technique that I developed since the day that I was born
When my heart gets started beating way more faster than the norm
When the plot is getting stranger and I know that I’m in danger of being splattered on the ground
I never look down

TO OVERCOME A FEAT
I MIGHT LOOK AT MY FEET
BUT I NEVER LOOK DOWN

ONCE I MADE UP MY MIND
AND I MIGHT TAKE MY TIME
BUT I NEVER LOOK DOWN
When my psoriasis is bad and I’m invited to the beach
Goodness gracious my temptation is to fret beyond belief
Yesterday on my right shoulder it was visible and pink
I got caught up in imagining what everyone would think
When I got there no one noticed so it wasn’t even bad
But I think about the way I’d have responded if they had
Being shallow is for assholes being vain is being lame
I got all that figured out and worry bout it just the same
I was talking to my homey when a pretty girl arrived
Later on into the night, she had picked up on my vibe
It did not take very long before I thought that I could smash
Paid attention when I spoke when I made jokes then she would laugh
Could have worried that she’d come across a patch and find it gross
Go from sitting in my lap to tryna snap and tryna roast
But instead I kept it focused later on when i suggested we get closer she was down
Because I didn’t look down

TO OVERCOME A FEAT
I MIGHT LOOK AT MY FEET
BUT I NEVER LOOK DOWN

ONCE I MADE UP MY MIND
AND I MIGHT TAKE MY TIME
BUT I NEVER LOOK DOWN

Being an independent rapper isn’t always fun and games
‘Specially me as I’m an artist that don’t never sound the same
Since I’m constantly rethinking how I think and how I rap and how I act
Every record like I gotta start from scratch
It raises questions far as makin scratch
But I won’t choke out my spirit with a fear of falling flat
I been riddled with anxiety and ravaged by disease
Till I realized it’s from worrying ‘bout who I gotta please
If I worried ‘bout the critics, getting rich or getting old
Then I’d never have the strength to tell the stories that I’ve told
If I constantly was burdened by the thought that I could fail
I could never be a soldier cause my soul might be for sale
I feel fortunate to fork over the cost of being fly
Doing stuff that’s super easy while I’m really really high
And I know that if I fell it was would be fatal what keep me able to cultivate my sound
Is that I never look down
