The Only Way Is Up

[Spoken Word]
“They tried to break me,
They tried to bury me,
But my God raised me higher.
The only way from here… is up.”

[Intro - Instrumental]


[Verse 1]
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bruised,
Carried chains I didn’t choose.
But every time I hit the ground,
His mercy pulled me back around.


[Pre-Chorus]
No turning back, no giving in,
I rise with every breath again.


[Chorus]
The only way is up, I won’t fall down,
My feet are steady on holy ground.
The storm is gone, the skies erupt,
I’ve found my strength — the only way is up.
From the ashes I arise,
With Heaven’s fire in my eyes.


[Verse 2]
Every battle, every scar,
Brought me closer to who You are.
I’ve seen the worst, but still I stand,
Carried by Your guiding hand.


[Pre-Chorus]
No fear, no chains, no holding back,
I walk the narrow, righteous path.


[Chorus]
The only way is up, I won’t fall down,
My feet are steady on holy ground.
The storm is gone, the skies erupt,
I’ve found my strength — the only way is up.
From the ashes I arise,
With Heaven’s fire in my eyes.


[Bridge – Shouted/Heavy]
No more falling, no more chains,
Only freedom in His name!
No more shadows, no more lies,
I see the truth, I see the skies!


[Final Chorus]
The only way is up, I won’t fall down,
My feet are steady on holy ground.
The storm is gone, the skies erupt,
I’ve found my strength — the only way is up.
From the ashes I arise,
With Heaven’s fire in my eyes.
The only way is up…
Yeah, the only way is up!


[Outro – Instrumental]

[Break]

[Spoken Whisper]
“…I’ve risen, and I won’t fall again.
The only way… is up.”
