Started with a high school dream
Hammered down and paved my way
Now the guy that my old friends see
All the cities and the famous names
I don’t think that I’d believe
Up here on the mountain top
All the longing still don’t stop
Thought nothing could bring me down
If could just get above the clouds
I’ve been climbing up the steep uphill
Outrunning all the fear I feel
Somehow it still caught up
Even though I got what I want
I’m not saying that I don’t love it
And yeah I know that I’m fortunate
And now I’m over trying to overachieve
But that’s what it took to get me to see
That up here on the mountain top
All the longing still don’t stop
Thought nothing could bring me down
If could just get above the clouds
I’ve been climbing up the steep uphill
Outrunning all the fear I feel
Somehow it still caught up
Even though I got what I want
They’re all sleeping through the night
What did I get wrong that they got right?
Cause up here on the mountain top
All the longing still don’t stop
Thought nothing could bring me down
If could just get above the clouds
I’ve been climbing up the steep uphill
Outrunning all the fear I feel
Somehow it still caught up
Even though I got what I want
