Run your life

Stop running from what you want

Don’t let them tell you what you can’t

You drive

You dream

You fly

If they tell you no

Fight for yourself

Tell them they’re wrong

Don’t go to sleep thinking you can’t

Always remember where you come from

Then when you reach the top

Remember who they are

Just because they quit their dreams

Doesn’t mean that you have to

They will tell you it’s impossible

But you know the truth deep down

You were born for it

If they tell you no

Fight for yourself

Tell them they’re wrong

Don’t go to sleep thinking you can’t

Always remember where you come from

Then when you reach the top

Remember who they are

You might lose friends

You might lose family

But never lose hope

You’ll always have love around

You’ll know when it’s meant to be

Say this for me

Never lose faith

Always play safe

Those who don’t will always plague

Empower yourself

Be in the lead

Don’t let yourself be controlled

If they tell you no

Fight for yourself

Tell them they’re wrong

Don’t go to sleep thinking you can’t

Always remember where you come from

Then when you reach the top

Remember who they are
