[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
Though I Walk through the valley of death I didn't wanna look up I think that if I did ..I would have nobody there devil making me think God doesn't care ..
Trying to keep me in the hole that I'm trying ta fill in willi banz stronger than the dark kno halo show in name I'm gonna praise...cuz he promised me better days ...
