[Hook]

I won't (I won't) won't be held down 

Be stuck here on the ground. Yes sir! It's the real me (real me) 

I have found and I'm risin' up (risin' up!) [x2]



[Verse 1] 

Your feelin' something's incomplete, your faith is where a concrete seat,

And they refuse to make a move, this can't be your life. 

You know that something's out of step, cause you ain't found the rhythm yet.

Break from one, a different drum, this one is right. 

I believe that I can be both the same thing. Watch me spread my wings. 



[Chorus] 

I'm goin' vertical, a dream gets to fly.

It's like a miracle, a reach through the sky. 

If you want it you need it, now you've just got to free it. 

And it goes vertical, vertical. 



[Verse 2] 

Why shouldn't I have locked the door, that's what I got my own key for. 

I don't care whos keeping score, I'm not gonna lose.

Don't matter what I won't forget, only what is represents.

It's in my head it's making sense, I'm gonna choose. 

To believe that I can be both the same thing. Watch me spread my wings. 



[Chorus] 

I'm goin' vertical, a dream gets to fly.

It's like a miracle, a reach through the sky. 

If you want it you need it, now you've just got to free it. 

And it goes vertical.. 



[Hook] 

I won't (I won't) won't be held down 

Be stuck here on the ground. Yes sir! It's the real me (real me) 

I have found and I'm risin' up (risin' up!) [x2]



[Chorus (broken up)] 

Vertical (interlude) a miracle.

If you want it, you need it.

Free it. Vertical. . 



[Chorus] 

I'm goin' vertical, a dream gets to fly.

It's like a miracle, a reach through the sky. 

If you want it you need it, now you've just got to free it, 

And it goes vertical 

Vertical!
