Upside Down
Detro Mighty Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm upside down
Around you, I am now
It's torture in this town
We're slow to know who goes
I set high
Self centered
Know better
Wanna be together

We'll make it
Bad weather
Want make it
Bad weather

Yeah, I took an L, out of sight
Miss me
Yeah, alright
We're so dumb
In circles, what have we done
Take it back, I'm on blast now
She don't wanna back down
Said I made her sad, how
Always see you downtown
Still I want it all the way, it's fine
You and me both

I'm upside down
Around you, I am now
It's torture in this town
We're slow to know who goes
I set high
Self centered
Know better
Wanna be together
We'll make it
Bad weather
Want make it
Bad weather

You're far away
What's left to say
Ok
Look love, falling down
You ever coming round to see
Us be
No
Guess I'm still

Upside down
Around you, I am now
It's torture in this town
We're slow to know who goes
I set high
Self centered
Know better
Wanna be together
We'll make it
Bad weather
Want make it
Bad weather

I'm upside down
Around you, I am now
It's torture in this town
We're slow to know who goes
I set high
Self centered
Know better
Wanna be together
We'll make it
Bad weather

Want make it
Bad weather
