Way Up

de Ryan Oakes

I wanna run away
To the sun, 10,000 miles away
Even if I have to run 10,000 miles a day
The journey's just begun, we ain't got no time to waste
You better jump the gun and learn to find a way

Whole life I was dreaming ain't nobody would believe it
But I'm boutta go achieve it and it feels so unreal yeah
I could always see if people tried to go delete it
But I knew I had to keep it nothing else had that appeal yeah
No, I went out alone to get it on my own
Tryna find a brand new place to call home
I know they can see the fact that I've grown
Every single time I hit the milestones
Man I never had permission in life
If I want it then I get it, there ain't no wishing in life
If you don't think that I'm the next up you ain't listening right
Like how the hell could you be happy and submissive in life
Kid you ain't living it right, you gotta be unafraid
You've gotta learn to be yourself and to be unashamed
Whenever people see that they try to go and restrain
You gotta leave it all behind and run away

I wanna run away
To the sun, 10,000 miles away
Even if I have to run 10,000 miles a day
The journey's just begun, we ain't got no time to waste
You better jump the gun and learn to find a way

Whole life you've been waiting, sitting down and contemplating
If your dream is worth the chasing, you just running out of time now
People only hating because they been feeling vacant
Thinking that they couldn't make it so they try to bring you down now
Oh, ain't nobody stopping you but your ownself
You gotta learn to let yourself grow
Even if that means you have to let go
To wander down that one less travelled road
Yo and I ain't saying that you have to be lonely
But if you got goals everyone's goalies
Thinking that you gonna quit if they just keep on tryna bring you down slowly
If you progress then they all acting like homies
I only know that cause I've been there
People don't admit they're, proud of you until you finally make it then they get their, kindness back, don't waste anymore time tryna win theirs
Learn to run away and let 'em vanish into thin air and disband like

I wanna run away
To the sun, 10,000 miles away
Even if I have to run 10,000 miles a day
The journey's just begun, we ain't got no time to waste
You better jump the gun and learn to find a way
