The force of gravity is grabbing me tonight
So I-I’m feeling there’s no ceiling only sky-y-y
When you look me in the eye
When you’re high, my fears are fading
Your atmosphere, you’re making me clear (Whoa)
Do or die, but I’ll be brave
As long as you’re here
As long as you’re here
Don’t even care if I’m falling down
I won’t hit the ground, I got you
We in the air like a fucking cloud
But I’m safe and sound, here with you
Baby, you’re like a parachute, parachute
Your love is always coming through, coming through
So I don’t care if I’m falling down, I won’t hit the ground
You’re my, you’re my parachute
Take me up so high, so I can feel the sky
Your presence is a present tonight
And girl, you make me believe I can fly
When you’re high my fears are fading (Yeah)
Your atmosphere, you’re making me clear (Whoa)
Do or die, but I’ll be breathing
In my feelings is how I’m feeling
Crazy ’bout you
I don’t even care if I’m falling down
I won’t hit the ground, baby, I got you
We in the air like a fucking cloud
But I’m safe and sound here with you
Baby, you’re like a parachute, parachute
Your love is always coming through, coming through
So I don’t care if I’m falling down, I won’t hit the ground
You’re my, you’re my parachute
No, it ain’t fair
You should be here, baby, right here
The way you love me, it ain’t fair
No, oh-oh
You’re my, you’re my parachute
I fell in love in a party
My hands all over her body
Follow wherever she go
Bad man take you down low
And you put the edge on me, baby
Whine when you sexin’ me crazy
I love her wherever she go
Bad man take you down low
Don’t even care if I’m falling down
I won’t hit the ground, I got you
We in the air like a fucking cloud
But I’m safe and sound here with you
Baby, you’re like a parachute, parachute
Your love is always coming through, coming through
So I don’t care if I’m falling down, I won’t hit the ground
You’re my, you’re my parachute
Floating on Love: Unpacking “Parachute”
In “Parachute,” Chris Brown crafts a vivid metaphor for the safety and exhilaration found in a loving relationship. The lyrics draw a parallel between falling and being lifted by love, with the recurring image of a parachute symbolizing trust and emotional security. As Brown sings about feeling weightless and fearless in the presence of his lover, he brings to life the idea that true connection can act as a cushion against life’s hardships. The blend of vulnerability and bravado highlights how love both elevates and protects, even as emotions run high and situations become intense. The song’s energetic delivery and atmospheric language mirror the rush of adrenaline and euphoria that comes with deep affection.
