"On The Way Up"

(I’m on the way up, look out!)

People tell me I can’t have every thing
But still I want to 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 puttin me down
Don’t they know that talk is useless
Nothings gonna keep my feet on the ground

Because I’m on the way up
I got it all together
Nothin’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!

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 don’t take chances
If you wanna be on top
You gotta work every single moment
Cause another’s after your spot

All the suckers scream and shout
But they don’t know what it’s all about
This is my world
And I’m sorry, but this table is reserved
