Lyrics
Upstream
Written by: Jenean Zades, Rob Murat
Chorus
Looking back at my life,
I was rowing upstream,
Forcing scenarios,
And living in a dream.
Rowing so fast,
Couldn?t even see,
Air was hard to breathe,
Missed what?s in front of me.
Always watching others,
I didn?t know why,
They?d glide past me,
Waving goodbye.
The fear within,
Made things so strange,
I didn?t want to live this way,
But I was scared to change.
Chorus repeat
Too busy fighting,
Forgot all the laughter,
Let minor waves,
Turn into a disaster.
Got beaten and battered,
So torn a part,
And ready to finish,
Before I ever had a start
Had a start.
Chorus repeat
Bridge
Feeling so tired,
Made it hard to hang on,
Had to just turn around,
So I could float along,
Found power within,
To set myself free,
Now without trying,
Life will carry me.
Where am I going?
I can?t even say,
But I?ll enjoy the ride,
And live for today.
Chorus Repeat fade
