Never Let Me Down Lyrics - Jay-z

Oh, Baby (hahaha) 

Turn the mother fuckin' music up 

When it comes to being true 

At least true to me (that's right, it's what I do. C'mon.) 

One thing I've found (uh-huh) 

One thing I've found 

Oh no, you'll Never Let Me Down (no, I ain't never let you down) 

Down 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get uo I get Down 

First I snatched the streets 

Then I snatch the charts 

First I had their ear 

Now I have their heart

Rappers came and went, I've Been Here From the start 

I seen them put it together 

Watched them take it apart 

Seen the rovers roll up with ribbons 

I've seen em re-poed, re-sold, and re-driven 

So when I reload, he holds number 1 positions 

When you hot, I'm hot 

And when ya feet cold, mines are sizzlin 

It's plain to see 

Niggas can't fuck with me 

'Cause Imma be that nigga for life 

This is not an image 

This is God given 

This is hard livin mixed with Crystall sippin 

It's the most consistent, Hov (in background) 

Give you the most hits 

You could fit inside a whole disk and, 

Nigga I'm home on these charts 

Ya'll niggas visitin 

It's hov tradition, Jeff Gordon of rap 

I'm back to claim pole position 

Holla at ya boy

(down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up 

I get down for my grandfather 

Who took my mamma 

Made her sit in that seat 

Where white folks aint want us to eat 

At the tender age of 6 

She was arrested for the sit-ins 

And now with that in my blood 

I was born to be different 

Now niggas can't make it 

To ballets to choose leadership 

But we can make it 

To Jacobs and to the dealership 

Swear I hear new music 

And I just dont be feelin it. 

Racisim's still alive 

They just be concealing it 

But I know they dont want me in the damn club 

They even made me show ID 

To get inside a Sam's Club 

I done did dirt And when to church 

To get my hands scrubbed 

Swear I been baptised 'least 3 or 4 times 

But in the land where 

Niggas praise you, cons are gettin paid 

Its gonna take a lot more 

Than coupons to get us saved 

Like it take a lot more 

Than Do-Rags to get you waves 

Nothin as sad as the day 

My girls father passed away 

So I promised to Mr. Rainey 

I'm gonna marry your daughter 

And you know I gotta thank you 

For the way that she was brought up 

And I know that you was smilin 

When you seen the car I bought her 

And you sent tears from heaven 

When you seen my car got balled up 

But, I can't complain 

What the acccident did to my left eye 

Cause look what the accident did to Left-Eye 

First Aaliyah, now Romeo must die 

I know I got angels 

Watchin me from the other side 

When it comes to being true 

At least true to me 

One thing I've found 

One thing I've found 

Oh no, you'll Never Let Me Down 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

We are all here for a reason on a particular path 

You don't need a curriculum to know that you are part of the math 

Cats think I'm delirious but I'm so damn serious 

That's why I expose my soul to the globe, the world 

I'm trynna make it better for these little boys and girls 

I'm not just another individual 

My spirit is a part of this, thats why I get spiritual 

But I get my hymns from him 

So it's not me, it's he thats lyrical 

I'm not a miracle 

I'm a heaven-sent instrument 

My rythmatic regiment navigates melodic notes for your soul and your mental 

Thats why I'm instrumental 

Vibrations is what I'm into 

Yeah I need my loot by rent day 

But that ain't what gives me the heart of Kunte Kinte 

I'm tryin to give us, us free like Cinque 

I can't stop 

That's why I'm hot 

Determination, dedication, motivation 

I'm talking to you of my many inspirations 

When I say I can't let you or self down 

If I were on the highest cliff on the highest riff 

And you slipped off the side and clenched on to your life in my grip 

I would never, ever, let you down 

And when these words are found 

Let it be known that God's penmanship has been signed in the language called love 

Thats why my breath is felt by the deaf 

And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind 

I, too, dream in color, and in rhyme 

So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house 

Cause whenever I open my heart, my soul, or my mouth 

A touch of God rains out. 

Take 'em to church 

When it comes to being true 

At least true to me 

One thing I've found 

One thing I've found 

Oh no, you'll Never Let Me Down 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get (down) 

Get up I get Down 

Who else you know been hot this long, 

(Oh Yeah, you know we ain't finished) 

Started from nothing but he got this strong, 

(The ROC is in the building) 

Built the ROC from a pebble, pedalled rock before I met you, 

Pedalled bikes, got my nephews pedal bikes because they special, 

Let you tell that man I'm falling, 

Well somebody must've caught him, 

Cause every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan them 

Number one albums? What I got like four of them. 

More of them on the way, 

The Eight Wonder on the way, 

Clear the way, I'm here to stay, 

Y'all can save the chitter chat, this and that, dissin' Jay. 

Dissin' Jay will get you mased. 

When I start spitting them lyrics, niggas get very religious, 

Six Hail Maries: please Father forgive us. 

Young, the Archbishop, the Pope John Paul of y'all niggas, 

The way y'all all follow Jigga, 

Hov's a living legend and I tell you why, 

(never let you down) 

Everybody wanna be Hov and Hov still alive. 

Down... Down... Down...
