When I was down and out, nobody came around
I was lost in the shadows, couldn't make a sound
Now the sun is shining, I'm standing tall
And the ones who left me hanging, they're trying to call

Now that I'm doing well, they wanna come back
Saying they missed me, but I see through the cracks
Where were you when I was on the ground?
Now that I'm flying high, you wanna stick around

I remember the nights, when I was all alone
No messages, no calls on my phone
But now I'm in the spotlight, the tables have turned
And the bridges they burned, they wanna rebuild, I learned

Now that I'm doing well, they wanna come back
Saying they missed me, but I see through the cracks
Where were you when I was on the ground?
Now that I'm flying high, you wanna stick around

I'm not the same, I've grown and I've changed
Can't let the past come rearrange
My new life, my new path, my new way
I'll keep my head up high, no time to play

Now that I'm doing well, they wanna come back
Saying they missed me, but I see through the cracks
Where were you when I was on the ground?
Now that I'm flying high, you wanna stick around

So I'll keep moving forward, won't look behind
The ones who truly care, they're the ones I'll find
Now that I'm doing well, I know who's true
And I'll keep on shining, without needing you
