Fallin
DMX · Other Songs - DMX
Father can you hear me when I'm callin' (callin', callin')
I need you to be near me when I' fallin' (fallin', fallin')
[DMX]
Stop me Lord, I'm going down the wrong road
and I'm moving fast for a person with a strong load
but the weight I bare, I can't wait to share
scrapped it there, my faith was always there
I'ma make it yeah, life is what it is
nobody said that you would make it fair
and I'ma take it there, built for war
gladiator with a good heart but built for more
but sometimes aint enough sunshine till you dark cloud
cause the devil on line, casue there was one time
you put your hand on me and said
don't worry about where you go, cause you're being led
[Chorus]
Father can you hear me when I'm callin' (callin', callin')
I need you to be near me when I' fallin' (fallin', fallin')
[DMX verse 2]
Day gets hard, but it's supposed to
call on God cause that's who I'm close to
told him, I chose you
I was introduced to the Devil
and through it all, I still chose you
I needed you, you rose to the occassion
stood beside me, no matter what I was facing
here I go chasing the wrong thing again
but if I fall, I know its you not him
that's be right there to pick me up
put me back on my feet, ugh, lift me up
plus you gave me the voice so I'm gon say it now
I love my God and I'm gon say it proud
[Chorus]
Father can you hear me when I'm callin' (callin', callin')
I need you to be near me when I' fallin' (fallin', fallin')
Fallin

Emerging from an era where hip-hop was defined by gritty storytelling and intense delivery, the track captures the artist's signature style of unfiltered expression.

The song reflects the broader themes found throughout his body of work, where personal struggle and spiritual questioning frequently intersect. As part of his extensive catalogue, Fallin remains a significant piece for listeners exploring the depth of his musical contributions and the evolution of his sound during this period.
