It was an emotional time
For my brother and I
We did our best to survive
But kept moving with time
 
I felt my back on the wall
Fell through the crack of it all
I felt something pick me up
It felt so good to be loved
 
I've been down (x4)
Now I'm going to the place in the sky
 
I did my best to stay up
That never felt good enough
But in the back of my mind
I still was learning to fight
 
I've been down
(Take me where I want to be)
I've been down
(Always gonna be what I want to be)
I've been down
(Take me where I want to be)
I've been down
Now I'm going to the place in the sky
 
I've got another way to survive
 
I've been down
(Take me where I want to be)
I've been down
(Always gonna be what I want to be)
I've been down
(Take me where I want to be)
I've been down
Now I'm going to the place in the sky
 
It was an emotional time
For my brother and I
The fire ran in the sky
And our mother once cried
Spilling blood
Blood that's from my father
Blood that's from my brothers
Hurting one another
Hurting each other
