Lyrics Up and Down - Hard Target

I got everything I need in life
I know it seems so right, but still I want more
And everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today
There's so much in store
But the littlest things have gotten to me
You pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet
What goes up, must come down
I guess what goes up, must come down

Hey, I got everything I need, but still I want more
I want what I can't have, what I probably can't afford
Got a roof on my family, I ain't suffering myself
You think you have it all but deep down there's something else
All my bills paid, but then there's times i'm getting worried
All these dreams that I have that my mind could never bury
The day you want to quit, is the day you see it work
But the day the pain leaves, it'll probably re-occur
My nephew got locked up, and my neice passed a grade
My sister had a baby, but my homie passed away
A love that's mass produced for the love you can't replace
You wait for your release from a place you can't escape
Times are getting harder, frozen softly in the moment
It's getting out of hand just when you thought you controlled it
You kept the door shut, when you promised it would open
Now i'm on the other side, contemplating and I'm knowing

I got everything I need in life
I know it seems so right, but still I want more
And everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today
There's so much in store
But the littlest things have gotten to me
You pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet
What goes up, must come down
I guess what goes up, must come down

I guess what goes up, must come down
The stuff we say today, must come 'round
I had everything, but everything was not enough
You pushed me to the ground but today I've gotten up
To you it's just black and white, hungry with no appetite
This was left, and past was right
This is where we're at tonight
See, I could lie but the truth sounds sweeter

Hot and cold, but around you there's neither?
You was a good girl, but bad as can be
Living in a cruel world, she had to believe
She's freefalling on a beat, another song that's on repeat
I'm as calm as I can be, standing tall as I can see
I see on the horizon there's a storm approaching me
While I'm remaining silent, I find the time but

I got everything I need in life
I know it seems so right, but still I want more
And everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today
There's so much in store
But the littlest things have gotten to me
You pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet
What goes up, must come down
I guess what goes up, must come down

Lightswitch on, lightswitch off
Hope you get the point cause I probably drift off
You get what you get, Karma is a bitch
Nothing seems surprising, alarming as it is
You reaching for the hate cause you never felt the love
Gangsters selling books cause the priest is selling drugs
A man would never crawl, and I was standing tall
Advance at everything, but some things you can't resolve
So you can have it all

I got everything I need in life
I know it seems so right, but still I want more
And everynight I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today
There's so much in store
But the littlest things have gotten to me
You pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet
What goes up, must come down
I guess what goes up, must come down

I got everything I need in life
I know it seems so right, but still I want more
And every night I go to sleep I pray, I don't leave today
There's so much in store
But the littlest things have gotten to me
You pickin' me up, then knock me off of my feet
What goes up, must come down
I guess what goes up, must come down
