Cornell Younge - Going Up lyrics

[Intro] Hello Sitting on a cloud that I built out of jello On top a mountain I just painted yellow [Verse 1] Living in a house that I built out of pencils The words from my mouth all work like a stencil Of my mind When I'm twisted just like a pretzel She said that I'm rough but I dress like I'm gentle I said enough time she'll adjust to my bed post Subliminal s** lines, I rush life I can't slow down like a bus might just like after tonight their won't be any more I'm not ready for, everyday to be the same I'm for another 20 years That's why I'll stay awake for another 20 years I'm going up, I'm going up I don't I think I could possibly see you from here They're throwing up, they're throwing up I don't think they could possibly look in a mirror With that hate in their eyes That is the reason I wait to arrive That is the reason I'm late and I lie When I haven't left my driveway but I, say that I'll make it in 5 I, know that they've made up their mind What they want for my fait is to dive, dive I'm already swimming through sharks, before I obey I will die And that's why I pay em no while, they take up my style This sh** that I make up, these places I go in my mind ain't free you should pay by the mile I'm not like anybody else if I'm stuck to the floor I'll just paint the tiles [Hook] I'm, going up I'm, going up I'm, going up You're just a dot from here X2 [Bridge] Sometimes living on the surface of this earth is worse than living in a bathroom with just windows and no curtains I can safely say that I am someone's worst because I'm determined I've been learning, I've been working [Verse 2] You can't f** with these verses I still go to Grant Mac and f** with these nurses If I say that I'm stuck or I'm hurt She'll rush me to first just like it was urgent, yeah Comes to me first just like she's a virgin, if I said I wanted her heart I'd instantly become a surgeon, most of my songs have purpose this time I'm just taking off like I'm shirtless, this time I can't call an ex out because I can't find one that is worth it, uh I can't write a text out because I can't find one that would work If f** you doesn't say enough And what's true doesn't convey much Then leave those people behind, behind your back is the when they're courageous What do any of us have to care for? Floating through the halls like I'm airborne I'm going up, I'm going up I guess that what these girls stare for I guess that's what I'm impaired for I guess that's why I won't share more dedication If reputation is equal to education then I must need intensive training To read text books and talk about how the next test looks At least when I walk into cla** you're impressed with, my entrance f** it, I'm going, I'm going [Hook]
