[Verse 1]
We all bank on the system
That our forefathers made
If it costs us our comfort
We can't go out our way
All my friends know of Jesus
But don't believe that He saves
All we know is the rat race
Where the dollars are made
[Pre-Chorus]
But I know this, we all crave
Change, it's why we medicate
Bury pain and heartbreak
We're tired of the mundane
It's not hard to realize
Something isn't quite right
[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we live in
It's so easy to lose faith
And they say heroes live to be the villain
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I refuse to play it safe, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I refuse to play it safe, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I won't ever play it safe, oh
[Verse 2]
I know I have a hard time
Of saying all that I feel
Fear of failure gets ahold of me
And we all learn to accept our
Limits we've grown to see
And stay in place of mediocrity
[Pre-Chorus]
But I know this, we all crave
Change, it's why we medicate
Bury pain and heartbreak
We're tired of the mundane
It's not hard to realize
Something isn't quite right
[Chorus]
It's a cruel, cruel world that we live in
It's so easy to lose faith
And they say heroes live to be the villain
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I refuse to play it safe, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I refuse to play it safe, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, don't let me lose my way
I won't ever play it safe, oh
