I had a vision for the life that was ahead of me
I had a reason, had a right, and had a destiny
I thought I knew where I was headed
And I would never look back

I had it all, and then I went and let it slip away
I'm working overtime, I'm gonna make it anyway
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
Sometimes you never get her back

Oh you know, but I'm

Risen up slowly, and getting higher
I've been living with a hole in my heart
Weighting down on me, but I'm a fighter
And I know I still got a shot in the dark
Baby, we still got a shot in the dark

Sometimes in life you meet the people that you think you trust
Wake up one day you find that everything had turned to dust
I always knew that you'd be waiting for me when I got back

Waiting when I came

Rising up slowly, and getting higher
I've been living with a hole in my heart
Weighting down on me, but I'm a fighter
I know I still got a shot in the dark
Baby, we still got a shot in the dark

I'm gonna find a way, I'm gonna find a way out, I'm gonna find a way

I got a vision for the life that's right in front of me
I got a right, I got a reason, I got a destiny
I know exactly where I'm headed, and I'm never looking back
Well, nothings holding me back
Well, nothings holding me back From

Rising up slowly, and getting higher
I've been living with a hole in my heart
Weighting down on me, Man! well, I'm a fighter
I know I still got a shot in the dark

Rising up slowly, I'm getting higher
I've been living with a hole in my heart
Weighting down on me, baby, I'm a fighter
I know I still got a shot in the dark
Baby, we still got a shot in the dark
And I know that I still got a shot
