Once you find what matters in your life
Keep on pushing through the darkness
Till you see the light
Youre gonna find it
Youre no longer behind it
Once you learn what youve been doin wrong
You can make the change
You need to make to carry on
Now and forever
The sooner the better, just remember now . . .
Its a long way up
When youre coming from nowhere
Its a long way up
When youre coming from nowhere
You gotta fight a little harder
You gotta push a little more
You gotta gamble everything you got
To get you through the door
Cause its a long way up
Youve been down before but thats okay
You can rest assured
That every dog will have his day
And life is a jungle
But you aint gonna crumble, remember now . . .
Its a long way up
When youre coming from nowhere
Its a long way up
When youre coming from nowhere
You gotta fight a little harder
You gotta push a little more
You gotta gamble everything you got
To get you through the door
Cause its a long way up
Dont give up the dream
Hey dont you know its dark before the dawn
When you think you just cant take it
Thats when youll make it
