This is just speculation, but I believe that "I'll never meet the ground" means that Gaga will never let herself fail or fall down. Even if she messes up, she will still get herself back up and try again no matter what happens to her. According to Gaga, this entire song is about communication and a connection between men and women. "I'll never meet the ground" could also mean that even if men do not listen to women, she is still going to keep fighting to be heard. As I said earlier, this is a song and could have a special meaning because of artistic choice; my interpretation of these lyrics could be different than what Gaga originally intended. Thank you for your question!
