[Intro]
[whispered vocals]
Ground up
From the ground up
From the ground up
From the ground up
From the ground up
From the ground up
[Verse 1]
[gritty singing]
Pack it up and run
No hesitation
It's a brand new world
Brand new place and
One more time
I don't have the patience
I've come too far to fail (come too far to fail)
Came so close to jail (came so close to jail)
I know I've got a family to provide for
And I'm better off alive
But sometimes
It feels like I died
Or
Like I was born again
But not for my sins
I'm here for them
I'm here for them
[Prechorus]
There's nowhere else to go
I'm doin' what I'm told
It's time to pack up and run
No hesitation
[Chorus]
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up
[Verse 2]
Pack it up and run
No hesitation
I could hear my son
He was callin' my name
One more time
I don't have the patience
I have come too far to fail (come too far to fail)
Came so close to jail (came so close to jail)
And I could hear my daughter as she cried out
And I just know it's gettin' better
I can feel it in the air now
'Cause it was a fight
It was a fight
But we're gonna be alright
[Prechorus]
There's nowhere else to go
I'm doin' what I'm told
It's time to pack up and run
No hesitation
[Chorus]
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up (ground up)
From the ground up
[Bridge]
Oh
And I had to say goodbye
To everything I've ever known
But when I look into their eyes
I'm never alone
I'm never alone
