Never Let Me Down Lyrics - Kanye West

1 '''Jay-Z:'''

2 Oh baby

3 Hahahahaha, turn it up for me

4 '''Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Michael Bolton:'''

5 When it comes to being true, at least true to me (That's right, it's what I do, c'mon)

6 One thing I found (Uh-huh), one thing I found

7 Oh no you'll never let me down (No I never let you down)

8 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

9 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

10 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

11 '''Jay-Z:'''

12 Yo, first I snatched the streets then I snatched the charts

13 First I had they ear, now I have their heart

14 Rappers came and went, I've been here from the start

15 I seen them put it together, watched them take it apart

16 Seen the rovers roll up with ribbons

17 I seen them re-po'd, re-sold, then re-driven

18 So when I reload, he holds number one position, when you hot, I'm hot

19 And when your feet cold, mines is sizzling

20 It's plain to see, niggas can't fuck with me

21 'Cause I'm a be that nigga for life

22 This is not an image, this is God given

23 This is hard livin', mixed with Cristal sippin'

24 It's the most consistent, Hov

25 Give you the most hits you can fit inside a whole disc and

26 Nigga I'm home on these charts, y'all niggas visitin'

27 It's Hov tradition, Jeff Gordon of rap

28 I'm back to claim pole position, holla at ya boy

29 '''Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Michael Bolton:'''

30 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

31 Get up I get (Down), get up I get

32 '''Kanye West:'''

33 Down for my grandfather who took my mama

34 Made her sit in that seat where white folks ain't want us to eat

35 At the tender age of six she was arrested for the sit-ins

36 And with that in my blood I was born to be different

37 Now niggas can't make it to ballots to choose leadership

38 But we can make it to Jacob's and to the dealership

39 Swear I hear new music and I just don't be feelin' it

40 Racism's still alive, they just be concealin' it

41 But I know they don't want me in the damn club

42 They even made me show ID to get inside of Sam's Club

43 I done did dirt and went to church and get my hands scrubbed

44 Swear I've been baptized least three or four times

45 But in the land where niggas praise Yukons and getting paid

46 Its gonna take a lot more than coupons to get us saved

47 Like it take a lot more than doo rags to get you waves

48 Nothing sad as that day my girl's father passed away

49 So I promised to Mr. Rainey I'm gonna marry your daughter

50 And you know I gotta thank you for the way that she was brought up

51 And I know that you were smiling when you see the car I bought her

52 You sent tears from heaven when you seen my car get balled up

53 But I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye

54 'Cause look what an accident did to Left Eye

55 First Aaliyah now Romeo must die

56 I know I got angels watching me from the other side

57 '''Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Michael Bolton:'''

58 When it comes to being true, at least true to me

59 One thing I found, one thing I found

60 Oh no you'll never let me down

61 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

62 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

63 Get up I get (Down), get up I get (Down)

64 '''J. Ivy and Kanye West:'''

65 We are all here for a reason on a particular path

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

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

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

69 I'm trying to make it better for these little boys and girls

70 I'm not just another individual

71 My spirit is a part of this that's why I get spiritual

72 But I get my hymns from Him

73 So it's not me, it's He that's lyrical

74 I'm not a miracle, I'm a heaven sent instrument

75 My rhythmatic regiment navigates melodic notes

76 For your soul and your mental

77 That's why I'm instrumental, vibrations is what I'm into

78 Yeah I need my loot by rent day

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

80 I'm trying to get us "us free" like Cinque

81 I can't stop, that's why I'm hot

82 Determination, dedication, motivation

83 I'm talking to you of my many inspirations

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

85 If I were on the highest cliff, on the highest riff

86 And if you slipped off the side and clinched on to your life

87 In my grip I would never ever let you down

88 And when these words are found

89 Let it be known that God's penmanship has been signed

90 With a language called love

91 That's why my breath is felt by the deaf

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

93 I too dream in color and in rhyme

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

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

96 A touch of God reigns out (Take'em to the church)

97 '''Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Michael Bolton:'''

98 When it comes to being true, at least true to me

99 One thing I found, one thing I found

100 Oh no you'll never let me down

101 Get up I get, get up I get

102 Get up I get, get up I get

103 Get up I get, get up I get (down)

104 '''Jay-Z and Kanye West:'''

105 Who else you know been hot this long (Oh yeah, we ain't finished)

106 Started from nothing but he got this strong (The Roc is in the building)

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

108 Peddled bikes, got my nephews pedal bikes because they special (Woo)

109 Let you tell it man I'm falling, well somebody must have caught him

110 Every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan them

111 Number one albums what I got, like four of them

112 More of them on the way, the eighth wonder on the way

113 Clear the way, I'm here to stay

114 Y'all can save the chitter chat, this and that

115 This is Jay, dissing Jay will get you maced

116 When I start spitting them lyrics niggas get very religious

117 Six Hail Mary's please Father forgive us

118 Young, the archbishop, the Pope John Paul of y'all niggas

119 They way y'all all follow Jigga

120 Hov's a living legend and I'll tell you why

121 Everybody wanna be Hov and Hov's still alive

122 '''Michael Bolton:'''

123 Down, down

124 Down, down

125 Down, down
