Don't Let Me Fall.
An emotional Raw Tech Hop original built around a voice at the edge, intimate tension, and a stark plea to be held up.
Original · Early full stream · Artist / DJ / Producer
Inside the song
Behind the signal.
A voice hovers at the edge of collapse, surrounded by chalk, cracks, cold water, and a door that never quite becomes an exit. The repeated plea to be held up gives the song its emotional center.

Read the lyrics
[Verse 1]
I keep your name in chalk
On the back of my hand
It smears when I move
Like a half-made plan
The floor knows my steps
By the drag in my shoes
I count out the cracks
I count out the news
Your voice in the vent
Like a note with a bruise
I lean to the wall
And I learn what to lose
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold it there
Hold it low
If I shake
Don’t let it show
[Chorus]
Don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall
I’m right on the edge
Don’t let me fall
Hold me up
Hold me up
I can’t stay whole
Hold me up
[Verse 2]
A dent in the sink
Where my ring used to live
Cold water, thin skin
Nothing left to give
I run through the line
Till the line runs thin
Same ache in my chest
Same bruise in my ribs
I step past the door
But I circle back in
Like a stray with a key
That won’t fit again
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold it there
Hold it low
If I crack
Don’t let me go
[Chorus]
Don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall
I’m right on the edge
Don’t let me fall
Hold me up
Hold me up
I can’t stay whole
Hold me up
[Bridge]
If I split
Say my name
Soft and close
Through the rain
I was here
I was real
I was all
That you could feel
[Final Chorus]
Don’t let me fall
Don’t let me fall
I’m right on the edge
Don’t let me fall
Hold me up
Hold me up
I can’t stay whole
Hold me up
Keep listening.
