Clued up

I used to dress like everybody else
I wanted to just blend in
They told me no, keep my dreams on the low
Told me I'd never win, yeah
I love to be different
Guard up to opinions then let 'em in
Tear me down, want to see me drown
Like being happy is such a sin, uh huh

And now I'm older, it's never over
It don't stop affecting me, the world keeps testing me
I'm getting on track with every knock back
On a bad day, I just gotta stay, stay, stay, stay

I stay clued up and I'm ready
To love the good and live the bad
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have
Cause sometimes it's beauty, sometimes it's pain
Sometimes it's sunshine, and sometimes it's rain
I'm clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have Invisible, I feel like I'm forgotten
Do you even notice me, yeah?
Work myself up, let the nerves take over
How I feel isn't what you see
I need control, don't know how to let it go
I need to learn to let it be
Gotta remember nothing lasts forever
So I'm just happy being me

And when I'm older, it's never over
It don't stop affecting me, the world keeps testing me
I'm staying on track with every knock back
On a bad day, I just gotta stay, stay, stay, stay

I stay clued up and I'm ready
To love the good and live the bad
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have
Cause sometimes it's beauty, sometimes it's pain
Sometimes it's sunshine, and sometimes it's rain
I'm clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have I will never run, never run from a lesson
I will never hide, never hide from the present
All the ups and downs, all the heres and the nows
Everything I face, no, it's never forgotten
Cause every single day is a chance I can blossom
All the ups and downs, yeah I'm living right now, hey
I'm living right now, yeah, 1 2 3

I'm clued up and I'm ready
To love the good and live the bad
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have
Cause sometimes it's beauty, sometimes it's pain
Sometimes it's sunshine, and sometimes it's rain
I'm clued up and now I'm ready
Just make the best of what you have
Clued up and now I get it
Just make the best of what you have

Beauty, but sometimes it's pain
Sometimes it's sunshine, sometimes it's rain
