Ain't Nobody Coming Down To Save You
Savior Seekers: Black Milk's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
I ain't coming to save you
I am not coming to rescue you.
You ain't coming to save me now
You are not coming to rescue me now.
Up, down
Up, down.
Ain't nobody coming down to save you
Nobody is coming down to save you (repeated for emphasis).
Ain't nobody coming down to save you
-Ain't nobody coming down to save you
-Ain't nobody coming down to save you
-Yeah, they looking for a savior like they heard God's call
People are searching for a savior as if they heard God's call.
Nothing that can save ya like when the sky falls
Nothing can save you like when the sky falls.
All ladies and gentlemen, welcome to when you were a kid again
Welcome to a time when you felt like a kid again.
Before a world that took your innocence, menacing
Before a world that took away your innocence, which was menacing.
Failed at, they want us all held back
People want everyone to be held back.
Just got us in the hood, trapped
We are trapped in the hood, left with Henny and Hellcats.
Only left with Henny and Hellcats, prevailed at
Surviving in difficult circumstances.
Running through Hell, taking the scars
Enduring hardships and collecting scars.
Even when it's soul-crushing like shoes stomping the yard
Life can be soul-crushing, like shoes stomping the yard.
It's plentiful, seem more cynical, the pinnacle
Difficult situations make people more cynical.
He's him like Negro spiritual, waiting for
Referring to oneself with pride, like a Negro spiritual.
Signals in the sky, heroes that can fly to take the heat
Waiting for signals in the sky, hoping for heroes to handle the heat.
Hope they open eye, still watching people die from make-believe
Observing people die from imaginary or false situations.
Take the keys, shit, take the wheel
Take control, take charge.
Writing out a check you can't cash, don't pay the bills
Don't make promises or commitments you can't fulfill.
Even still
Even in success, challenges persist.
Even when you make it, shit get complicated
Success can bring complications.
Wrong move and that life get confiscated
A wrong move can lead to the confiscation of life.
Might get locked and caged, locked in cages
Possibly referencing incarceration or restriction.
Niggas working over just for under wages, understatement
People working hard for inadequate pay, an understatement.
Understand nobody's coming down to save us, understood
Realize that nobody is coming to save us.
Yeah, by the ones that's right with us, tight
Supported by those close to us.
All my get-money type niggas alike
Referring to those focused on financial success.
Ladies, with they shifts at day, getting paid at night
Women working during the day, earning at night.
Making niggas stay in they bag, have em paying twice, like
Encouraging others to stay focused and make others pay twice.
Ain't nobody coming down to save you
Nobody is coming down to save you (repeated for emphasis).
Ain't nobody coming down to save you
-Ain't nobody coming down to save you
-Ain't nobody coming down to save you
