Up Until Now

I come from the city, where you're born to fit the mold
And ever since I was young, I learned the hard way to trust no one
Cause this town that shines like gold
Will just strip you of the things that you own
And up until now, I've kept my head down, walking over the cracks on the ground
But I wanna feel the hurt, the pain, the love, the heartbreak, this world's got

These streets I walk down, they remind me, of all that I've lost
See my favorite store window, boarded up, with signs that say closed
And these memories they won't haunt me
If I promise myself to break free
And up until now, I've lied to myself, saying this barren land felt like home
But I know, that outside these walls, there lies something waiting for me

And I ain't got all the answers
But I got my facts learned straight
And up until now, I've been here wondering, could you get out if you try?
And I might find that I'm wrong
But It won't be wasted time
Cause up until now, I've sat here waiting, wasting away my only life
So long my friends, I wish you well, and I'll see you on the other side
