Miles and miles of distant tryna keep me from my prize A thousand pounds may weigh me down, my demons close behind My bones may ache my skin may break, and I find it hard to breathe But nothing in this world could ever take my soul from me (me)
You can’t take me down ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up You can’t wear me out ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up now Whoa I’m coming up Whoa I’m coming
Days and nights have passed me by, my fortune I will claim Even when the storm blows in you can never kill my game My mind is quick, my eyes are fixed and there ain’t no room to doubt I can move these mountains, come on feet, don’t fail me now
You can’t take me down ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up You can’t wear me out ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up now Whoa I’m coming up Whoa I’m coming
Higher and higher, open up the sky Higher and higher so I got room to fly Higher and higher, then open up the sky Higher and higher so I got room to fly So I got room to fly
You can’t take me down ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up You can’t wear me out ‘Cause I’m coming up, ’cause I’m coming up now Whoa I’m coming up Whoa I’m coming Whoa I’m coming up Whoa I’m coming
