ever upward from Chrysalis Capsule by liv hayes

one more week until school's out forever
id be lyin’ if i said i had my shit together
i'm without a plan,
but i know where i’m goin’

in my chest i heard my cosmic compass whisper
it said from here i’ll be ever upward
but when i try to explain it,
i cant find the words

i trust that voice in my ribs,
cause she's never ever lied
except for maybe once
or fifty times

the skeptics rolled their eyes
at my cosmic revelation
but inside i can't fight
this directional inclination

when i hit rock bottom,
i managed to dig deeper
but my lease in the tectonic plates is over
and i’m moving ever upward

i can't explain something i've always known
or that's how the story of fate goes

can't tell it over, only i know the words
but maybe you’ll understand
when you see me
ever upward
