Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Been that way
Still that way
Listen
[Verse 1]
Woke up, same hoodie, same grind
Coffee in a chipped mug, still shine
Phone cracked, but the vision stay clean
Turn doubt into fuel, gasoline on the dream
Mama said "rest", but my mind don't sleep
Whole life in a notes app, six feet deep
Scroll through the pain, screenshots of the past
Hit delete on the fear, kept receipts on the cash
They said "chill", I said "later, maybe"
Ideas in the shower got me feeling crazy
Clock on the wall talk loud, tick tick
Every second that you waste, that's a slick trick
[Chorus]
I'm on my way up, way up (yeah)
Same old shoes, new steps
Turn every setback straight into a flex (into a flex)
I'm on my way up, way up
They don't see the nights I bled
But they gon' know the name when it's stuck in they head (stuck in they head)
[Verse 2]
Used to feel small in a crowded room
Now I take space like a living proof
Talk soft, but the plans talk strong
They laughed at the start, they gon' quote the song
I was eating cold rice from a plastic bowl
Dream board on the wall, little taped-up goals
Now the texts read "yo, you next"
Funny how they change when you earn respect (ha)
Still keep my circle like a tight-knit thread
If you wasn't in the drought, you ain't in the bread
I ain't bitter, I'm busy, that's word to the mirror
Every year more clear, every fear disappear
[Chorus]
Drifting through the dawn, chasing the first light
Golden sky, my wings are taking flight
[Verse 1]
Step by step, I'm rising higher, no more looking down
Ambitions burning fire, lifting me from the ground
Every stumble, every fall, they only made me strong
Now I hear the call, singing my new song
[Pre-Chorus]
Breaking through the clouds, I can see the new day
Voices in my head, reminding me I’ll find my way
[Chorus]
I'm on my way up, soaring through the sky
Reaching for the stars, got my dreams alive
No more hold me down, I'm breaking free
On my way up, where I wanna be
[Bridge]
Echoes of the past, they fade behind me
Moving with the wind, feeling so mighty
Every step I take, is a step to the top
This is my moment, never gonna stop
[Outro]
The horizon calling, I can’t turn away
On my way up, I’m here to stay
Shining brighter than before, it’s my time
With every breath, I climb higher now

Style
rap, Dark, minimal trap beat with sparse piano stabs and deep bass, mid-tempo. Male vocals, tightly pocketed rap flow with clear diction; hook doubles with octave vocal and subtle gang shouts. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d; chorus opens with wider stereo delays and layered ad-libs. Occasional riser sweeps and reverse FX to mark transitions, kick and bass locked for a hypnotic head-nod groove.
