[Intro]
This song is dedicated to anyone who's in the middle of where they've been and where they wanna go
Take that fuckin' leap

[Verse 1]
There’s somethin ‘bout the way the ocean pours in over you
Oh, it’s something I can’t explain
Reflecting on the ways my heart has pulled through, ways
Oh, it’s something I cannot change

[Pre-Chorus]
I know that you gotta go
You gotta do what you’re supposed to do
Just know there’s no one to blame
We always get stuck in the middle
This life seems so simple until there’s no reason to stay

[Chorus]
Ooh, in between the ups and downs
Somewhere in the ins and outs
I been lookin’, lookin’ for you
Ooh, I was hoping you would find me out
In between the ups and downs
I been lookin’, lookin’ for you
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah yeah, whoa
[Verse 2]
I seem to drown from the weight of the signs
When my head is under water
And I’m swimmin’ through my mind, yeah
Nothing can stop the way I used to know you, hold you
I guess it’s scary to admit to yourself
Gotta let go of your past to become someone else
I know that I’ll miss you, but I got some issues
And oh, I know

[Pre-Chorus]
I know that you gotta go
You gotta do what you’re supposed to do
Just know there’s no one to blame
We always get stuck in the middle
This life seems so simple until there’s no reason to stay

[Chorus]
Ooh, in between the ups and downs
Somewhere in the ins and outs
I been lookin’, lookin’ for you
Ooh, I was hoping you would find me out
In between the ups and downs
I been lookin’, lookin’ for you
Oh, yeah
Oh, oh yeah yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
I know that the fans been patient, my plans are late
And I think they’ve been waiting enough
I know there’s no time to waste just by contemplating
And trust me, I hear all your thoughts
"She signed to a label, what if she changes?
What if her memory fades
And forgets all the people who loved her before she was famous?
Started from nothing, man, now could you blame us?"
Oh no, no, no, I know, I get it, don’t feel misunderstood
One of my idols signed a deal
Did shit they said they never would
But I did not get this fuckin' far
To be some puppet on some shelf
And I haven’t fought for who I am to become somebody else
I know it’s hard, but I’ll fight for who I was and who I will be
To become somebody greater
And at the same time, stay the same me
And I still don’t give a fuck ‘bout what they say to me
Stay true to who you are and never do it quietly

[Outro]
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
No no, no, no, no, no
Breathe deeply
And stay true to who you are, no matter where you are
Doesn't matter how you look, doesn't matter who you are
Stay true to who you are, stay true to who you are
Stay true to who you are, no matter where you are
Doesn't matter how you look, doesn't matter who you are
Stay true to who you are, stay true to who you are
Don't panic
