[Chorus]
I can't hide my frown, my smile is hiding from my mouth
I can't lie, my mind keeps finding time to fight myself
I dive so deep inside, feel like I died and I'm in hell
Or I'm so high, my eyes can't see the ground beneath the clouds
Don't look down (Don't look down, don't look down)
Don't look down (Don't look down, don't look down)
I tried to keep it quiet, silence all my cries for help
As long as I am rising till I'm upside down, I won't look down
[Verse 1]
This a meteoric rise
Keep ignoring all the horror stories like
So-and-so, got way too famous
And ended up killing himself with some pills and a knife, ayy
I am not the one who's gonna self-destruct
Got it out the mud
I can wait too far to fail and screw it up
I ain't droppin' balls, I just blew 'em up, ayy
I will never let my mental illness be the cause of my downfall
I will never lie to none of my fans, if I did, it would sound wrong
I will never try convincin' you dummies, this isn't a town hall
Never look down, never look down, just look around, y'all
Ayy, all of my demons are here
All I can feel is fear
All I can do is keep being myself
And that's what I been doing for 32 years
All of my haters came out, chasing my name for some clout
What are they angry about?
They're climbing as high as their ladders can take 'em
And screaming my name, but I don't look down
[Verse 2]
Hi, guys, remember me? I'm a white guy
Everybody wanted to cancel, nice try
Too sick, I might die right
Two fists full of middle fingers, I got no time for high fives
Too rich for a drive-by
Pay the pilot on my private jet to keep it low and do a fly-by
Take nine knives on a bike ride
Why nine? 'Cause I heard that a pussy has nine lives
I'm the one that y'all hated
I'm the one who won the game, got paid and famous
I'm the one who laughed in all they faces
And became the greatest since old Slim Shady
I'm the one who don't care
I'm the one who goes where no one goes 'cause they're scared
I'm the one who don't choke
When the boat don't float, my throat gets no air
I can barely breathe all the air I need
Oxygen is very thin at the top
I can rarely sleep, stars I'm underneath
Shining too bright, and I can't turn 'em off
I'm high as the birds now
Flying too close to the sun, got a burn, wow
I been turnin' up, and I ain't turnin' down
Maybe I should chill, but I ain't learnin' how
Ayy, I'm not afraid of success
I'm afraid of what happens if I take a rest
I'm afraid that I'll end up where I was before
In the hood, with no money or food for the rent
I'm scared if I look at the water, I'll drown
So I look at the sky and deny there's a ground
I'm not scared of the altitude up in the clouds
I'm scared of the fall, so I don't look down
[Bridge]
Fuck you, every single motherfuckin' one of you
I can't even see you because I don't look down (Don't look down)
Hahahaha (Don't look down, don't look down)
Yeah (Don't look down)
[Chorus]
I can't hide my tears, I dry my eyes and more come out
I can't lie, my fear is suicide, not bank accounts
Keep my chin up, but my head weighs, like, a million pounds
Feels like my neck might break, I hear it crack, ignore the sound
Don't look down (Don't look down, don't look down)
Don't look down (Don't look down, don't look down)
I tried to keep it quiet, silence all my cries for help
As long as I am rising till I'm upside down, I won't look down
[Verse 3]
This a legendary climb
Stand on the edge of the ledge and it's very high
Think of the men who are dead
'Cause it got to their head at a cemetery time
I ain't the one who gon' throw it away
'Cause I'm feeling too lonely up here
I ain't the guy who gon' break from the pressure
It's snowy, my pipes are not frozen up here
