NF - Let You Down Lyrics






Feels like we're on the edge right now
I wish that I could say I'm proud
I'm sorry that I let you down
Let you down
All these voices in my head get loud
I wish that I could shut them out
I'm sorry that I let you down
L-l-let you down

Yeah, I guess I'm a disappointment
Doing everything I can, I don't wanna make you disappointed
It's annoying
I just wanna make you feel like everything I ever do was never tryna make an issue for you
But I guess the more you
Thought about everything, you were never even wrong in the first place, right?
Yeah, I'ma just ignore you
Walking towards you, with my head down lookin' at the ground, I'm embarrassed for you
Paranoia, what did I do wrong this time? That's parents for you
Very loyal?
Shoulda had my back, but you put a knife in it; my hands are full
What else should I carry for you?
I cared for you, but

Feels like we're on the edge right now
I wish that I could say I'm proud
I'm sorry that I let you down
L-l-let you down
All these voices in my head get loud
I wish that I could shut them out
I'm sorry that I let you down
L-l-let you down

Yeah, you don't wanna make this work
You just wanna make this worse
Want me to listen to you
But you don't ever hear my words
You don't wanna know my hurt yet
Let me guess, you want an apology, probably
How can we keep going at a rate like this?
We can't, so I guess I'ma have to leave
Please don't come after me
I just wanna be alone right now, I don't really wanna think at all
Go ahead, just drink it off
Both know you're gonna call tomorrow like nothing's wrong
Ain't that what you always do?
I feel like every time I talk to you, you're in an awful mood
What else can I offer you?
There's nothing left right now, I gave it all to you

Feels like we're on the edge right now
I wish that I could say I'm proud
I'm sorry that I let you down
L-l-let you down
All these voices in my head get loud
I wish that I could shut them out
I'm sorry that I let you down
L-l-let you down

Yeah, don't talk down to me
That's not gonna work now
Packed all my clothes and I moved out
I don't even wanna go to your house
Everytime I sit on that couch
I feel like you lecture me
Eventually, I bet that we
Could have made this work
And probably woulda figured things out
But I guess I'm a letdown
But it's cool, I checked out
Oh, you wanna be friends now?
Okay, let's put my fake face on and pretend now
Sit around and talk about the good times
That didn't even happen
I mean, why are you laughing?
Must have missed that joke
Let me see if I can find a reaction
No, but at least you're happy

Feels like we're on the edge right now
I wish that I could say I'm proud
I'm sorry that I let you down
Oh, I let you down
All these voices in my head get loud
And I wish that I could shut them out
I'm sorry that I let you down
Oh, let you down

I'm sorry
I'm so sorry now
I'm sorry
That I let you down

  32. L.... R....

    I've heard this song on the radio and never really listened to it closely. A good friend told me abt NF and started listening to his music and didnt realize he made this song. And now that I've listened to his music and fully understand this song I can never sing it without busting into tears.
    Thank you Nate you're truly the best artist I have ever came across.

  33. A.... I....

    'But at least you're happy.'

  36. B.... D....

  37. T.... C....

    Oh so you made this song ok I never knew

  38. W.... k....

    The beginning is NF watching Billie eyelash drown from how much sadness his songs contain

  39. M.... N....

    Grandpa savage

  40. S.... S....

    Let You Down's the only song you've heard of? Well then you're behind

  41. A.... ....

    Can someone explain the song to me? like the meaning?

    A.... ....

    NF talks about the struggles he had earlier in his life, and looking back at himself he felt like he “let himself down.”

  42. T.... ....

    I love NF! So glad this amazing artist found his way into my ears. I will never be the same, in a great way!
    Much love NF! You are amazing!

  43. N.... G....

    If "Let You Down" is the only NF song you've heard till now, then, my friend , you're way behind.

    N.... G....

    Nilim Gayan nope I’ve listened to almost all of his songs atleast once

  44. P.... K....

    2020🤘

  45. E.... Z....

    Brazil 💚🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

  46. I.... ....

    2020? 😂😂😂

  47. M.... G....

    Is this a Suicide Preventing song

    M.... G....

    No, it's a song about NF letting himself down.

    M.... G....

    Enrique Parra oh

    M.... G....

    it talks about his past life

    M.... G....

    Rachel Joseph oh

  48. A.... S....

    He should just open the door

  49. J.... J....

    I think of you daily Adonis J. 👼🎅

  50. J.... F....

    2020¿¿¿

  51. J.... J....

    👌🏼

  52. O.... H....

    Why does he look so sad when he sees the bodies but after he let's TWO PEOPLE DIE he's fine?

    O.... H....

    Depends how you interpret it. As for me, I see it as him watching his younger self die. Self-destruction is ironic and very interesting when you study about it in psychology. Most people don’t see it as self-destruction until sometimes it’s too late.

  53. l.... i....

    2020 Anyone?

  54. M.... G....

    Yo llege aqui por los cabros

  55. g.... ....

  57. M.... U....

    Why does it say Nathan

  58. I.... M....

    I wondered who made this then I figured out who it was in 2018

  59. K.... G....

    He is saying this to his younger self, but can be taken as his own father
    Love him so much. Glad that this new generation has this guy
    He is like the emo non swearing Eminem love it!!!

  60. S.... ....

    Tu fait de les ti de bonne music

  61. c.... w....

    This reminds me of Friday the 13th

  62. M.... P....

    i remember exactly when this came out. time flies. unfortunately.

  63. I.... L....

    sorry :(

  64. N.... M....

    Awesome 👍

  65. J.... B....

    Ok I am utterly confused by the video. Watching people die. I have to say I don’t get it exactly

    J.... B....

    Justin Brooks he is talking to his old character or something like that bc in the end of the video he have the same tattoo and his wife called him Nathan did you get it now dude

  66. *.... G....

  67. �.... ....

    E.... L....

    Is that supposed to be funny?

  69. B.... R....

    Love this song

  70. J.... ....

    Great song... But I can't help but laugh at the funny old man watching someone drown and standing in a field watching a car burn xD

    J.... ....

    That's NF as an older man watching his younger self suffer.

  71. C.... M....

    HELP THE PEOPLE STOP LETING THEM DIE

  72. E.... Q....

    Who’s here on 2020?

  73. B.... F....

    Is this real that sad why didn't save him😢

  74. M.... J....

    Who was he talking to?! Himself?!

    M.... J....

    his younger self

  75. C.... K....

    old white guys should be blamed for everything. lol.

  76. M.... R....

    This is realy sad

  77. c.... ....

    ASELYA YA IWU TEBYA

  78. A.... s....

    Next big thing in rap @nf

  79. �.... -....

    let you down 👉🏻😘

  80. b.... s....

    I feel It’s about his dad an also himself, making him say in the chorus what his dad should feel an have said to him it’s sarcastic because he wouldn’t man up.also seems to be about himself feeling like he might become his dad.I feel like that’s his anxiety that makes him feel that way.his dad sits there watching him get hurt his whole life .he may be scared he will turn into his dad fear from his childhood.thank you for this song every time I hear your music it touches the the very hurt an fragile parts of me.I completely get it nfs feelings I’m about what reaches my heart your my fav artist 🖤

    b.... s....

    brittany shockley, that is not NF’s dad. Watch the end of the music video and you will see a woman say, “Nathan”. So that old guy is an older version of NF.

    b.... s....

    Ethan Sahawneh I’ve already done my research it’s his dad an it’s his fear of it becoming himself.....

    b.... s....

    I fixed what I was saying that’s what I feel it is, it’s not just about him it’s about his dad also.

  81. E.... k....

    I just love her with a eyeless

  82. M.... R....

    I literally listen to this after I failed committing suicide and feel hope again

    M.... R....

    Mr. Rhydes, that is great. I love NF because he is so relatable. I find hope on NF’s music, but more so, in Jesus Christ. He is the only lasting hope.

    M.... R....

    God bless u

  83. D.... F....

  89. m.... g....

    I am going to make mistakes .. that being said ever since I was 5 I played softball and we tried every other sport but softball came to me I think I am pretty good at softball but after every tryout, practice or game nothing is ever enough for him I know people can relate to this but my dad will never know what he puts me through, even today when I had a tryout, I am strong at defence and most of the time offence but I was of today the coach even said he knows I have it in me by the way I swing but when I got in the car he said he "was not mad " even though he was ,he then proceeded to say the thing that he basically says everytime but it still hurts he said " I can't even look at you when you hit because you are never going to hitt it" mind you I have ten other try outs and today was not planned when this song plays I feel like my hurt goes away thank you if you stayed till the end

  90. f.... ....

    Honestly I feel like NF would make an amazing actor! When I see him in his own videos he makes you feel everything just through is performance, even if you couldn't hear the lyrics.

  91. B.... G....

    THis is so sad

  92. X.... _....

    Me: cries
    Also me: I can hear the voice of me not doing anything to help my friend on lizzy’s death.
