Way Up Lyrics by Delon Ellis

2022

Ain’t nobody know my name, ain’t nobody know my face now
Ain’t too many hear the words that I’m saying
Looking up, ain’t no way that I’m going down
Ain’t nobody heard my pain, ain’t nobody gotta feel my shame now
Never wanna play it safe, no way hah, imma take a different route

Looking up, it be the only way going
Best believe it, that I’m chosen
I can feel it, like an omen
Speeding up, but never slowing
Leading up to when I’m blowing
Dreams too big to see a Trojan
It’s a demon I have woken

Started this journey many years ago
Had battle with many of my fears, lost hope
Till I stopped giving a fuck yeah I woke
Up and saw what all of my cares revoked

Evеrything I was told I did the opposite
Rebal in my soul yеah I really chose to follow it
Sick of people talking trynna keep me in the box and shit
Don’t wanna fit the mould if I know Iv got more to give

Going at it like I got some to prove, yeah a whole lot to get, still a whole lot to lose
Like I’m betting on myself red or black I get to choose
Never getting off track cos of someone else views

But everybody wanna doubt what I’m doing, like they ain’t believe a kid can make it out making music
Always knew I’d dismount from bullshit
Have the people on the mediocre route looking stupid

Now I know it sounds crazy, feening for a dream there’s a chance it ain’t paying
Everybody looking at the kid, like he playing
Turning down a deal, man that shit just be outrageous, but

Ain’t nobody know my name, ain’t nobody know my face now
Ain’t too many hear the words that I’m saying
Looking up, ain’t no way that I’m going down
Ain’t nobody heard my pain, ain’t nobody gotta feel my shame now
Never wanna play it safe, no way hah, imma take a different route

And these days, man I really plan on going up
Riding on my wave, I ain’t fucking with the fake love
On the path Iv paved, till the day of finally blowing up
Nobody know my name, imma wait until it’s changed up

Taking shots like a saw it in a crystal ball
Never was enough for me, working 9-5 jobs
Do it by myself, I ain’t expecting anyone support
Give me all the hate, man I feed off proving people wrong

I don’t really pay attention to it anyway, validate myself instead of caring what the people say
Ay, I just put the passion in to everything
No debate, I just levitate from the comment space

Self belief it at an all time high now
Cooking up a beat like a savage with the knives now
Ball with the elite going on to game five now
One man team, a fucking general in disguise now

But still they see me out here acting like the greatest
Reaching for a dream that I’m manifesting daily
Ay glimpse of my potential, seeing greatness
Run the marathon, the finish line will feel amazing

Never comfortable sitting in the bleachers
Never wanted to listen to my teachers
Never want the sorrow of, dying as a dreamer
Never be a follower, always be the leader

Ain’t nobody know my name, ain’t nobody know my face now
Ain’t too many hear the words that I’m saying
Looking up, ain’t no way that I’m going down
Ain’t nobody heard my pain, ain’t nobody gotta feel my shame now
Never wanna play it safe, no way hah, imma take a different route
