    UP Lyrics
    Didn’t have the best start
    Felt like I was falling apart
    Am I just a lost cause?
    Tell me should I really give up?
    I tried to give them my heart
    But I never got that far
    Couldn’t be the good guy
    Even though I did try
    Thought there was nowhere to go
    Down lonely roads
    But now I know
    The only place I'm going is up
    Only make room for love
    Cuz My story’s far from over
    It’s only begun
    Imma throw it all away
    Every last piece of your hate
    And though my story’s far from over
    I’ve already won
    I’m goin up up up up up up up
    I’m goin up up up up up up up
    I’m goin up
    I ain’t ever coming back down
    You won’t ever catch me falling for
    The lies that I could never be yeah
    Thought there was nowhere to go
    Down lonely roads
    But now I know
    The only place I’m going is up
    Only make room for love
    Cuz My story’s far from over
    It’s only begun
    Imma throw it all away
    Every last piece of your hate
    And though my story’s far from over
    I’ve already won
    I’m goin up up up up up up up
    I’m goin up up up up up up up
    I’m goin up
    Didn’t have the best start
    Felt like I was falling apart
    Am I just a lost cause?
    Tell me should I really give up?

    David, if you ever read this, just know that many of us are just like you, experienced things similar to your life. And I’m so proud of you for coming out. I wish I had come out earlier when I was younger and I was always afraid to lose loved ones or be disowned. But I’ve come to terms with myself that I have to accept myself first. If those loved ones don’t accept you, they don’t deserve to be in your life. Coming out is never easy and being afraid of not being accepted is very tough. But, always remember that you only have one life to live and you deserve to be happy. We all deserve to be happy and be authentic to who we truly are. So be very proud of yourself. Live your best life and don’t live with regrets. Ever since I came out, I’ve never been happier. The ones that truly love you will be by your side no matter what. Stay true to yourself, always.

    So proud of you being your true self. I know it's scarey, but you are never alone. You are loved every hour of every day by many you have never met. We're out here and God will always welcome you! ❤❤

    Incredible, beautiful voice and lovely lyrics. As a person who was a member of the LDS Church for 18 years, I feel your pain. I had a baby out of wedlock and my family kicked me out. The church looked down on me and I no longer felt welcome. I'm so sorry David, you gave the church so much of your time, energy - and life. And this is how they treat you. Don't ever say sorry for being yourself. You are the Macaw, Stay true to your Colors. I've been your fan since the beginning. Know there are millions of people who love you and are rooting for you. You're an amazing singer and touch so many lives. I'm no longer a member of the Mormon church and I've never felt more free. believe you will be one of God's angels in heaven singing in his choir. There is no way you will go to hell for loving someone, it's impossible. The church got that part wrong. Looking forward to hearing more of your music! Can't wait.

    After following you since your American Idol days and seeing you interviews about what you went thru. Sing a member of LDS I feel more connected to you than ever. You are such an amazing man of God. You are such a true beacon of light for those struggling with how they were made. As a man who has hidden my true self for my entire life , I know the feelings you speak about going thru. Would love someday to meet you in real life to shake your hand and tell you how loved and respected you are. Your voice is so angelic and inspiring. Love you brother. Best of luck in finding true love you deserve and on your new music. Fly high David!
    Your biggest fan

    This video and song review: The struggle between being himself and trying to be accepted based off of what he was taught and what others expected. The dove with the rainbow colors signifying being at peace with who he is. And now flying free from all that was pulling him down. Allowed to rise and be free. Showing all his beautiful colors. "Going up"😢 💛

    I recently lost my great nephew to a horrible car accident. 💔😭. He was just 17, going to be 18 in September. He was a troubled child, struggled with fitting in, and was on lost roads. I found this song 🎵 just a little while ago, and I have shared it with my family members who feel this song fits personally. He is in heaven now, and he is safe now.

    Every few years since I discovered you, around 12 ago, I browsed if you had already broken free (I had the feeling, as I identified with your background in many ways). It made my day to find out you finally had. I hope it brings you all the peace and happiness in the world. I agree with the lyrics; now you can only go up.

    "Where's the bridge?" Why does the song feel incomplete?" Could it be because David's story is far from over and he's making room for more? David said this song is essentially a prelude representing a PART of his journey. Once we hear the whole album, this chapter will be complete ❤.

    Haunting. Definitely a message of moving forward but you don’t sugar coat where you’ve been, and what you’ve faced. During the chorus I feel like you are climbing step by step out of a hole with every UP, UP, UP, UP, UP. Love the arrangement too - clean & simple. Thanks for posting this lyrics in this uplifting video. Bravo David and team!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Don't let people tell you that God does not love you for being who are. If I would have had the courage taht you had to come out when I was your age maybe my life would have been different. May God bless you and continue make great music and keep moving forward.
