All the Way Up
Emily Osment Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And play the air guitar
I like to keep my suitcase packed cause I'm going far
I think you're nice but
I don't wanna waste my time
I may seem crazy but don't worry I'm just fine
All the way up
Never look back
It's time to breakout
I want it my way
I do what I do
I know what I like
And maybe it's you
Let's rock
It's a temporary life
It's a ride
That takes you all the way up
All the way down
Never look back it's time to breakout
I like to go out walking
In the pouring rain
I want my rock n roll to
Make the window shake
I wait 'til three am
To call everyone I know
I'm gonna bring the noise
I'm ready here we go
All the way up
All the way down
Never look back
It's time to breakout
I want it my way
I do what I do
I know what I like
And maybe it's you
Let's rock
It's a temporary life
It's a ride
That takes you all the way up
All the way down
Never look back it's time to breakout
It's my life and it's a riot
Come on baby you can't deny it
All the way up
All the way down
Holdin' my breath
Lettin' it out
I want it my way
I do what I do
I know what I like
Baby
All the way up
All the way down
Never look back
It's time to breakout
I want it my way
I do what I do
I know what I like
And maybe it's you
Let's rock
It's a temporary life
It's a ride
That takes you all the way up
All the way down
Never look back it's time to breakout
It's time to breakout
It's time to breakout

Emily Osment's song "All the Way Up" is a cheerful, effervescent pop rock jam about pursuing life on your own terms. The first verse opens with Osment listing off some specific quirks about herself that set her apart from the average person - she bites her nails and plays air guitar. These things may seem unusual or impractical to others, but she doesn't care. She keeps her suitcase packed because she's ready to travel and explore the world, and she's not willing to waste her time on people who don't understand her. Ultimately, though, she's "just fine" with marching to the beat of her own drum.
The chorus is a rallying cry for anyone who feels like they're stuck in a rut or held down by societal expectations. Osment sings, "All the way up, all the way down, never look back, it's time to breakout." She wants to live life to the fullest and take risks, even if that means experiencing both peaks and valleys along the way. The repetition of this phrase throughout the song drives home the message of seizing the moment and not getting bogged down in regrets or second-guessing.
In the second verse, Osment gets even more specific about the things that make her happy and fulfilled. She enjoys getting caught in the rain and listening to music that rattles the windows. She's not afraid to stay up late and reach out to everyone she knows to share her excitement for life. The bridge is particularly anthemic, with Osment declaring, "It's my life and it's a riot, come on baby you can't deny it." This line captures the buoyant, carefree spirit of the song, which invites listeners to dance and sing along.
Overall, "All the Way Up" is a fun, light-hearted song that celebrates individuality and adventurousness. It's a feel-good anthem for anyone who's looking to break out of their comfort zone and embrace new experiences.

Semaj Hinton
This album was actually pretty good. Should have got recognition.
Julia Sanchez
Agree
michelle khorozyan
Semaj Hinton TRUE
R M
She has gotten plenty recognition....she transformed herself into Carrie Underwood. A little tweaking here and there...her voice is just more mature as Carrie. Is it not obvious? :)
Marie Ding
I agree .... Not too much recognition because if that was the case she would have had more albums.
