Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
I went from boy to a man, wow
Opposition had to stand down
And I had to make a perfect plan
Now I'm on the wave
I had to fight for the city (for the city)
I had to fight for the people (for the people)
You gotta do what all leaders do
Everyone here, we believe in you
Know you can be a hero 'cause we see you do it
And this is the time that we needin' you
Everyone is here to see you move
Winnin', we winnin', we winnin'
We put a world on a wave
And every time you swinging through the city, you are saving the day
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
We had to fight for the town (town)
Now there's no villains allowed (allowed)
Everyone cheer in the crowd
But I'm still way up, I'm over the clouds
We had to fight for the city (city)
Competition was lethal (lethal)
Honestly, it's no biggie (biggie)
I had to do what all leaders do
Uh oh, they don't want it man
Uh oh, they don't want it, I promise
Uh oh, they don't want it man
Uh oh, they don't want it, I promise (promise)
Uh oh, they don't want it man
Uh oh, they can't handle my problems (problems)
They always hate on us
But they can't do it without us
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
We out here cleanin' the streets (streets)
We don't accept the defeat (defeat)
We keep on going until we win (win)
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
All of 'em weak in the knees (knees)
Deer in headlights when they freeze (freeze)
But we keep on going until we win
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, we on the way up
