My Way Up

I've known since I was young

I wouldn't stay where I was from

Wouldn't take the easy road

Went ahead and made my own

Why walk when you can run?

I had to get used to no

Every high takes a low

I can't go with the flow

When I wanna make waves

Oh, but I'm seein' it now

Just like a break in the clouds

Feel the sun shinin' down on me

I'm on my way up

Won't look back

I'm on my way up

Past has passed

'Cause I found the strength inside of me

Got my head up high, 'cause I believe

I'm on my way up

And I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

Thank God for my mistakes

For the tears and the lonely days

Even though it hurt like hell

No, I never lost myself

'Cause I bend, but I don't break

Oh, and I'm seein' it now

Just like a break in the clouds

Feel the sun shinin' down on me

I'm on my way up

Won't look back

I'm on my way up

Past has passed

'Cause I found that strength inside of me

Got my head up high, 'cause I believe

I'm on my way up

And I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm still fightin' my demons

But I don't believe them

Finally followin' my soul

I'm still me, but I'm better

I'm stronger than ever

And I know

I'm on my way up

Won't look back

I'm on my way up

Past has passed

'Cause I found that strength inside of me

Got my head up high, 'cause I believe

I'm on my way up

And I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way

I'm goin', I'm goin' up my way
