Lightning Bug

[Verse 1]
I don't know what I want anymore
So I went back in to the yard
Tryna catch a lightning bug
And put it in a jar

[Pre-Chorus]
The darker it gets, the harder it is to see
I made a couple attempts when my hands were still empty
Yeah my hands were still empty (but I'ma stay up)

[Chorus]
I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up, up, up
Stay up 'til I catch me a, lightning bug
I won't give up, I won't give up, I won't give up
Give up 'til a catch me a, lightning bug (but I'ma stay up)

[Verse 2]
Sick of sayin', "better luck next year,"
Sayin' "you gotta keep your eye on the ball,"
Keepin' it 20/20 this year
But you can only learn to climb if you fall
No doubt, never sold out
I'm just tryna do my thing
Hold out, I'ma hold out, 'til everybody knows my name (yeah I'ma stay up)

[Chorus]
I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up, up, up
Stay up 'til I catch me a, lightning bug
I won't give up, I won't give up, I won't give up
Give up 'til a catch me a, lightning bug

[Bridge]
I'm on my way and, all I say is
"One day, I'ma be somethin'"
I'm on my own, and I'm all alone but
I tell you one thing, I'ma be somethin'

[Chorus]
I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up, I'ma stay up
Stay up 'til I catch me a, lightning bug
I won't give up, I won't give up, I won't give up
Give up 'til a catch me a, lightning bug

[Outro - Verse 1]
I don't know what I want anymore
So I went back in to the yard
Tryna catch a lightning bug
And put it in a jar
