Lyrics:

Acoustic Version

Yesterday is not quite what it could have been
As were most of all the days before.
But I swear today, with every breath I'm breathin' in
I'll be trying to make it so much more.

Cause it seems I get so hung up on the history of what's gone wrong
That the hope of a new day is sometimes hard to see.
But I'm finally catching on to it.
Yeah, the past is just a conduit and the life there at the end is where I'll be.

Chorus:
Cause I'm on the up and up.
I'm on the up and up.
I haven't given up,
given up on what
I know I'm capable of.
I'm on the up and up.
I'm on the up and up.
And now there's nothing left to prove.
Cause I'm just trying to be a better version of me for you
A better version of me for you.

Now I have all that I could ever need: the confidence of knowing there's still time.
Time to make amends, and try to build a better me.
And to take the right steps as this road unwinds.

You see, I'm finally catching on to it. The past is just a conduit and the life there at the end is where I'll be.

Chorus

Never cease to supply me with what I need for a good life, so when I'm down I'll hold my head up high cause you're the reason why, you are...

I'm on the up and up.
I'm on the up and up.
And I haven't given up,
given up on what I know I'm capable of.
Yeah I'm on the up and up, now there's nothing left to prove
Cause I'm just trying to be a better version of me for you
I'm just trying to be a better version of me for you.
I'm just trying to be a better version of me for you.
