leo dressel - down and up lyrics
[verse 1]
i remember wanting to have something all my life, and stressing about not doing enough with all my time
i have some guilt for not having my life just where i want, i definitely made some choices that can never be undone
but i don’t write my life with words like “could” or “should have done”, i’d much rather employ my “will” cause with it i can run
i’m seeing things a different way than movies i recall, responsibility is power not the other way around
ups and downs will be seen all the way, but we don’t wait, gotta get it right away
cause all we have is who we are, evolving everyday, i’m proud of me, i’m proud of us, the verse of both of us, you know
i guarantee, i’m sure you’re gonna hear about us
and i’m no “would be”, d-mn sure you gonna hear about us
the grind is hard but, i bring this message with me everywhere that i go
[chorus]
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i’m on my way
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i do my thing
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i’m on my way
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i do my thing
[verse 2]
as i identify myself as a potential enemy
who don’t wanna see me winning
who would get out of his way to point out every negative thing and leave out any good
who knows the best weapons and strategies to beat me
to depress me
to defeat me
to numb me
to diminish me
to lie to me
to believe me
to deceive me
that’ll break me
it will dull me
but he knows me!
does he hate me?
sam says there’s no self but
need some money now
gotta love me now
wait a second, babe
love ain’t enough, but i’m sure it all could be, would have been way worse
love ain’t enough, but i’m sure it all could be, would have been way worse
love ain’t enough, but i’m sure it all could be, would have been way worse
love ain’t enough, but i’m sure it all could be, would have been way worse
love ain’t enough, but i’m sure it all could be, would have been way worse
i guarantee, i’m sure you’re gonna hear about us
and i’m no would-be, d-mn sure you gonna hear about us
the grind is hard but, i bring this message with me every-d-mn-where i go
[chorus]
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i’m on my way
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i do my thing
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i’m on my way
down and up, last i win
i’m not getting any younger, but i do my thing
i’m not getting any younger but i’m doing my thing right now, i’m doing my thing right now, i’m doing my thing right now
oh my god, time flies! i gotta do it all right now (i gotta do it all right now)
