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 seeing it now
Just like a break in the clouds
Feel the sun shining 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 my strength inside of me
Got my head up high 'cause I believe
I'm on my way up
And I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going 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 seeing it now
Just like a break in the clouds
Feel the sun shining 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 my strength inside of me
Got my head up high 'cause I believe
I'm on my way up
And I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm still fighting my demons, but I don't believe them
Finally following 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 my strength inside of me
Got my head up high 'cause I believe
I'm on my way up
And I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
I'm going, I'm going up (my way)
