This is the beginning - of a new lease on life
This freedom, - this passion is how we survive
Only got one life - one chance
to show what I got - and nothing will ever
take this from me
You can never take this from me
Whatever happened to just - wanting to live your dream
when no one cared about - the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay - for the life I've made
but I'm always finding a way to - Stand up
can't you hear the - sound of - a thousand screaming voices
eager to watch you succeed -
Give them something real to believe
You'll try everything - to sell your soul for a quick buck
so look at it this way
Tried to control my life - but I've got something to say
Your words, they make me sick
mind-blown by all the constant bullshit
Go back to your pathetic life - and let me be
Whatever happened to - just wanting to live your dream
when no one cared about - the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay - for the life I've made
but I'm always finding a way to - Stand up
can't you hear the - sound of - a thousand screaming voices
eager to watch you succeed
Give them something - real to believe
This is a song for the times I've failed
This is a song for the times I got it right
Maybe I'm just a boy - with a dream
but my dreams are becoming a reality
This is a song for the times you've failed
This is a song for the times you got it right
Maybe you're just someone with a dream
but your dreams are so close you just have to believe it
Stand up, can't you hear the sound, -
of a thousand screaming voices
Whatever happened to - just wanting to live your dream
when no one cared about - the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay - for the life I've made
but I'm always finding a way to - Stand up
can't you hear the - sound of - a thousand screaming voices
eager to watch you succeed
Give them something - real to believe
