UPS AND DOWNS

[Verse 1]
Gave up, gave in, gave everything
Got hit, got up, got enemies
My memories, no friend to me
Cut me, I bleed, feedin' the machine
What hurt the most, stab my throat, rock the boat
Left to choke, all alone, I turn into an animal
Ambushed and pushed until my ankles broke
Still standin', I know somethin' you don't

[Pre-Chorus]
How did I come so far
Just to lose it all?
Will I fall apart?
Gave it all I got
It's dark before the dawn
Gets hard to carry on
The way to overcome
Is looking up

[Chorus]
Gotta get ready for the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can
'Til the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can

[Verse 2]
Fell off, fell out, failed miserably
Lost love, lost drive, lost energy
My legacy, new identity
Won't bend a knee, I'm back up on my feet
A long road, overthrown, heaven knows
For the throne, back home, I came in with the antidote
Can't move me, I've grown and know you're comatose
No damage, stronger than I've ever known

[Pre-Chorus]
How did I come so far
Just to lose it all?
Will I fall apart?
Gave it all I got

[Chorus]
Gotta get ready for the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can
'Til the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can

[Bridge]
How did I come so far
Just to lose it all?
And if I fall apart
'Least I gave it all I got
'Til then, I'll never stop
But I don't know where to start
And if I fall apart
'Least I gave it all I got
'Til then, I'll never stop, stop, stop

[Chorus]
Gotta get ready for the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can
'Til the rain again
Dark clouds and skies ahead
Ups and downs, try to understand
I put my face to the sun when I can

[Outro]
How did I come so far? (Oh-oh)
I put my face to the sun when I can (Oh-oh)
Will I fall apart? (Oh-oh)
I put my face to the sun when I can
It's dark before the dawn (Oh-oh)
I put my face to the sun when I can (Oh-oh)
The way to overcome (Oh-oh)
I put my face to the sun when I can
