A Promise Lyrics by Abstract

2017

[Chorus: RoZe]
See, I took life for granted
'Cause I didn't think the day would come
Where I would be right here standin'
In front of my friends and all of my fans

[Verse 1: Abstract]
You know I question your tendencies
Drop a new style, you're dead to me
You said you'd never change; you said you'd stay the same
How could you fuck up the recipe?
Sent you a message in June—and you left me on read
Before these numbers we'd talk everyday
I guess we related back then
You pulled me out of my darkness when she fucked me up and you know I was stuck in my head
When I couldn't take anymore, I would go to my room and play you while I cried in my bed
I bought every piece of merch that you dropped
Stayed up late to be the first that would cop
I just took it all some miles out of town
Burned it all in an abandoned parking lot, fuck!
Couldn't stand another second with it
Wasn't sure what I was rappin' with it
How the hell are people rockin' with it?
How you makin' all this pop rap? You're supposed to be a fuckin' savage with it
Guess you're onto better things these days
Maybe you'll come back to earth one day

[Chorus: RoZe]
See, I took life for granted
'Cause I didn't think the day would come
Where I would be right here standin'
In front of my friends and all of my fans

[Post-Chorus: RoZe]
Singin', "I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"

[Verse 2: Abstract]
What's up? I just wanna say sorry
Been a few months, I was goin' through things
I was lonely and mad you had a new thing
"No Ghost" made me wanna wrap a shoestring
Around my neck and take that jump
So I loaded all your merch in my goddamn truck
And, like I said, burned it—so fucked up
But let me explain before I get choked up
See, I didn't have no one at the time like you
I was jealous that I ain't have a girl like you
I'm so sorry, I shoulda been proud of you
At the time, guess I didn't know what love could do
See, I met somebody and she changed my life
Funny thing is, she listened to you
"No Ghost" gotta be like her favorite tune
And with her in my life, it's my favorite too
See, I guessed as you grew; I got left behind
Shoulda followed the clues that you left to guide
Just took a little bit for me to see the signs
But now I feel like we're back, livin' side by side
So, no matter where you go, I'll catch up in time
Don't worry 'bout me, I'ma be just fine
Love the new stuff, we know all the lines
By the way, send hoodies—I'ma need two, signed

[Chorus: RoZe]
See, I took life for granted
'Cause I didn't think the day would come
Where I would be right here standin'
In front of my friends and all of my fans

[Post-Chorus: RoZe]
Singin', "I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"
"I will never let you down"

[Outro: RoZe]
Never let (oooh)
Let you down (oooh)
Nooo (oooh)
No, no, no, no, no
Never let (oooh)
Down all the words you believed in me (oooh)
I will keep on strivin', keep survivin'
As long as I can breathe

[Chorus: RoZe]
See, I took life for granted
'Cause I didn't think the day would come
Where I would be right here standin'
In front of my friends and all of my fans
