Lyrics

I kept climbing

I persevered and continued moving upward

Up that mountain

Continuing to strive for progress or achievement

And I lived it

I experienced and endured the journey

Day by day

Living life one day at a time


It was a battle

Life presented challenges, and I actively confronted them

And I fought it

I struggled and faced difficulties

Paid my dues

I fulfilled my obligations or faced consequences

Along the way

Throughout my journey, I encountered hardships


And they told me

Others advised me

When you're up there

When reaching success

From the top

You'll gain a comprehensive view

You'll see it all

Experience everything

But they never care what happens

They are indifferent to the aftermath of failure

When you fall

No concern for what happens after a downfall


Paying my dues again

Undergoing hardships once more

Singing the blues again

Expressing sadness or hardship again through music

Seems like the sun don't shine

Feels like positivity is absent

I'm so far down

I feel deeply low or depressed


And it's so hard to start all over

Rebuilding from a difficult situation

Knowing where I've been

Awareness of past struggles

Paying my dues again

Encountering challenges anew


I was lost

I was directionless and isolated

And I was lonely

Alone and feeling desolate

Not so very long ago

Not too long ago

And I sang

I expressed my sorrow through music

My sad songs

Songs expressing sadness

About a love

About a love that was unattainable

I'd never know

A love that remained elusive


Then I loved

I experienced love

And I was lost

Then lost in confusion

Until I looked

Until I realized love had vanished

And love was gone

Love disappeared

And I wondered

Contemplating how life continues

How the world

Despite personal hardships

Could still go on

Wondering about the world's continuity despite personal struggles


Paying my dues again

Recurring hardships

Singing the blues again

Expressing sorrow through music again

Seems like the sun don't shine

Positivity seems absent again

I'm so far down

Feeling deeply low or depressed once more


And it's so hard to start all over

Restarting from a difficult point

Knowing where I've been

Awareness of past struggles continues

Paying my dues again

Encountering challenges again


And it's so hard to start all over

Reiterating the difficulty of starting anew

Knowing where I've been

Being mindful of past experiences

Paying my dues again

Experiencing hardships once more
