I waited a long time for my life to change
Things don't happen like that
They don't happen
I hated you all but I survived the fall
For reasons unexplained

On the up and up
Only I can tell
When there's nothing to lose
That's when we prevail
cnd I know
cll y'all gonna give me
The things in life that I'm intending

Oh with the way that things change you let go
So long people I wanted to know
With no discerning I left them yearning
We are more than we show

On the up and up
Only I can tell
When there's nothing to lose
That's when we prevail
Cuz I know
cll y'all gonna give me
The things in life that I'm intending

it's so shallow in the dark
Forgiving not a slight mistake
I found my comfort in the fog
c hazy mist where I escape

I'm on the up and up
If you can't tell
I've got nothing to lose
That's why I'll prevail
cnd I know
cll y'all gonna give me
The things in life that I'm intending

I've got nothing to do
Got nothing to lose
Got nothing to prove
cnd I'll prevail
cll by myself
I guess I'll tell
My story as it unveils
