Prince - On the Way Up lyrics

I'm on the way up Look out Ow! Babe Oh, babe [Verse 1:] People tell me I can't have everything But still I wanna have it all They say I cannot succeed in life That I'll get so far And then I'll fall I don't need no negative outlook I don't need nobody putting me down Don't they know that talk is useless? Nothing's gonna keep my feet on the ground [Chorus:] Because I'm on the way up I've got it all together Nothing's gonna hold me back Yeah, I'm on the way up I'm only getting better Now tell me what you think about that Look out [Verse 2:] If and when you make it All kinds of people come around Some of them in your corner Some of them put you down But one thing they all agree on Is that you are gonna change When all along They're the only ones Who never ever remain the same Now tell me which one of us changed? Only fools dont take chances If you wanna be on top You gotta work every single moment Cause another's after your spot All the s**ers scream and shout They don't know what it's all about This is my world And I'm sorry This table is reserved [Repeat Chorus:] Oh Oh, yeah [Repeat Chorus:] People think I can't have everything But I'm gonna get it all I'm on the way up Nothing's gonna make me fall No, no, no Now what you think about that? Tell me what you think about that? Uh-huh Thought so
