[Verse]
I’m on top of the world today
I ended up paving my own way
I struggled to get through life
And I did it all without a wife
I let go of what you want me to be
Instead I became whole and set free
I rose from the lowest of the lows
And I know that this really shows
I stopped believing in what you say
And live my life full every single day
Grasping for air is now in my past
I look beyond and see my life as vast
I do not need you to be happy or alive
Doing what I do best is how I thrive
So put down your fists of harmful rage
I’ve already broken free from your cage
[chorus]
On top of the world as I now see
On top of the world that is part of me
On top of the world you never created
On top of the world I’m not devastated
[chorus]
On top of the world as I now see
On top of the world that is part of me
On top of the world you never created
On top of the world I’m not devastated
I am man of great love and faithfulness
One that also knows about forgiveness
You never gave me a chance to explain
That’s ok, you won’t hear me complain
I gave up on worrying about what you think
I erase memories of you with just a blink
My best friend made it simple and clear
You and your lies I no longer have to fear
That best friend is my own heart and soul
It is me, who is the great man in control
I’m sorry if you were expecting me to cower
It is just so hard to do from my tall tower
[chorus]
On top of the world as I now see
On top of the world that is part of me
On top of the world you never created
On top of the world I’m not devastated
[chorus]
On top of the world as I now see it
On top of the world that is part of me
On top of the world you never created
On top of the world I’m not devastatedI do not need you to be happy or alive
Doing what I do best is how I thrive
I do not need you to be happy or alive
Doing what I do best is how I thrive
