[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't wanna wake up alone
(Sometimes I don't wanna wake up alone)
But sometimes I wanna wake up and be on my own
(But sometimes I wanna wake up and be on my own)
Sometimes I don't wanna walk by and smile
(Sometimes I don't wanna walk by and smile)
But at the same time, I don't wanna let people down
(But at the same time, I don't wanna let people down)

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh) Can you imagine, the weight of a world
(Ooh) Placed on your shoulders, trapped in this world?
(Ooh) And no one can reach you (Ooh), ooh
(Ooh) So no one can help you now (Ooh)

[Chorus]
It's getting heavy, I think I'm 'bout ready to break down (Down)
I'm standing up (Up), but I'm fallin' down (Down)
Time keeps on ticking, I wish there was a way to slow it down (Down)
Someone pick me up (Up) 'cause I'm fallin' down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down

[Verse 2]
Why is it so easy for you to blame?
I'm only human, we're all the same
I've given up everything in exchange for being alone
I'm shaking these demons underneath all the pride, oh-woah

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooh) Can you imagine, the weight of a world
(Ooh) Placed on your shoulders, trapped in this world?
(Ooh) And no one can reach you (Ooh), ooh
(Ooh) So no one can help you now (Ooh)

[Chorus]
It's getting heavy, I think I'm 'bout ready to break down (Oh, down)
I'm standing up (Standing up), but I'm fallin' down (Down)
Time keeps on ticking, I wish there was a way to slow it down (Slow it down)
Someone pick me up (Pick me up) 'cause I'm fallin' down (Fallin' down, yeah)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down (Down, fallin' down, yeah)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
It's getting heavy, I think I'm 'bout ready to break down (Down)
I'm standing up (Up), but I'm fallin' down (Down)
Time keeps on ticking, I wish there was a way to slow it down (Down)
Someone pick me up (Up) 'cause I'm fallin' down (Down)
It's getting heavy, I think I'm 'bout ready to break down (Down)
I'm standing up (Up), but I'm fallin' down (Down)
Time keeps on ticking, I wish there was a way to slow it down (Down)
Someone pick me up (Up) 'cause I'm fallin' down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down (Down)
Fallin' down (Down) down (Down) down (Down) down

Chris Brown

Grammy-winning R&B singer, rapper, dancer, graffiti artist, illustrator and the first male lead artist to have his debut single top the Billboard Hot 100 in 8 years with “Run It!” in 2005, Breezy is undoubtedly a multifaceted artist. To add to this, he is the father of Royalty, a princess and the inspiration for his 7th studio album Royalty.

It’s undeniable his ability as a musician, dancer, and all-round entertainer. At the 54th Annual Grammy Awards (February 12th, 2012) his 4th studio album F.A.M.E. won the award for Best R&B Album and a huge number of other awards and nominations ranging from his debut as a 16 year old in 2005 to his most recent projects.

Brown’s career is long-lived, pristine and all about his music with hits such as “Look At Me Now,” “Turn Up the Music,” and “Loyal,” and successful collaborations with Omarion on his hit “Post to Be” and Lil Dicky's “Freaky Friday” in recent years.
