Up And Down Lyrics - Singles - Hard Target

I got everything I need in life 

I know it seems so right, but still I want more 

and everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today 

there's so much in store 

but the littlest things have gotten to me 

you pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet 

what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down 

hey, I got everything I need, but still I want more 

I want what I can't have, what I probably can't afford 

got a roof on my family, I ain't suffering myself 

you think you have it all but deep down there's something else 

all my bills paid, but then there's times i'm getting worried 

all these dreams that I have that my mind could never bury 

the day you want to quit, is the day you see it work 

but the day the pain leaves, it'll probably re-occur 

my nephew got locked up, and my niece passed a grade 

my sister had a baby, but my homie passed away 

a love that's mass produced for the love you can't replace 

you wait for your release from a place you can't escape 

times are getting harder, frozen softly in the moment 

it's getting out of hand just when you thought you controlled it 

you kept the door shut, when you promised it would open 

now i'm on the other side, contemplating and I'm knowing 

I got everything I need in life 

I know it seems so right, but still I want more 

and everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today 

there's so much in store 

but the littlest things have gotten to me 

you pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet 

what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down 

the stuff we say today, must come 'round 

I had everything, but everything was not enough 

you pushed me to the ground but today I've gotten up 

to you it's just black and white, hungry with no appetite 

this was left, and past was right 

this is where we're at tonight 

see, I could lie but the truth sounds sweeter 

hot and cold, but around you there's neither? 

she was a good girl, but bad as can be 

living in a cruel world, she had to believe 

she's freefalling on a beat, another song that's on repeat 

I'm as calm as I can be, standing tall as I can see 

I see on the horizon there's a storm approaching me 

while I'm remaining silent, I find the time but 

I got everything I need in life 

I know it seems so right, but still I want more 

and everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today 

there's so much in store 

but the littlest things have gotten to me 

you pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet 

what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down 

lightswitch on, lightswitch off 

hope you get the point cause I probably drift off 

you get what you get, Karma is a bitch 

nothing seems surprising, alarming as it is 

you reaching for the hate cause you never felt the love 

gangsters selling books cause the priest is selling drugs 

a man would never crawl, and I was standing tall 

advance at everything, but some things you can't resolve 

so you can have it all 

I got everything I need in life 

I know it seems so right, but still I want more 

and everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today 

there's so much in store 

but the littlest things have gotten to me 

you pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet 

what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down 

I got everything I need in life 

I know it seems so right, but still I want more 

and every night I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today 

there's so much in store 

but the littlest things have gotten to me 

you pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet 

what goes up, must come down 

I guess what goes up, must come down
