Verse 1
I came from nights where the lights stayed low,
Had to build myself, nobody showed.
Every setback turned into a lesson,
Now I’m chasing dreams, no second guessing.
They counted me out, but I stayed ten toes,
Kept my head high through the highs and lows.
I’m living true, never changing my soul,
Every single step got me closer to my goal.
Pre-Chorus
Even when I’m down, yeah, I’m still up.
Heart full of faith, never giving up.
Working every day, trying to fill my cup,
Turning every loss into a level up.
Chorus
Even when I’m down, I’m up inside.
Can’t break my spirit, can’t kill my drive.
I’m working for the money, earning every dime,
One day they’ll see this grind was worth the climb.
I’m staying true, that’s the way I live,
Never let the world take the heart I give.
Even when I’m down, I’m reaching high above,
Built on hard work, faith, and love.
Verse 2
I ain’t looking back, got a future to chase,
Every scar reminds me why I keep the pace.
No shortcuts, just sweat and prayer,
Success feels sweeter when you know you got there.
They see the smile but don’t know the fight,
How many mornings turned from dark to light.
I’m still that boy with a dream so big,
Planting every seed ‘cause I know it’ll live.
Bridge
Money comes and money goes,
Character is what really shows.
I’ll keep grinding till my family’s straight,
Trusting God’s timing, never rushing fate.
Final Chorus
Even when I’m down, I’m up inside.
Nothing’s gonna stop this ride.
Working every day, making dreams come true,
Staying real is all I ever knew.
If I fall, I’ll rise once more,
Stronger than I was before.
I’m living true, no matter what I go through,
Even when I’m down… I’m already breaking through
