[Spoken Intro]
I don't wanna say goodbye

[Verse 1]
There are some who believe
That I owe them something
But they're wrong
I owe nothing to no one but myself

[Verse 2]
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there
I am to blame

[Refrain]
Up
Down, up, up, up
Down, up, up, up
Down, up, up, up
Up
Down, up, up, up
Down, up, up, up
Down, up, up, up
