| Defying odds, I’m defying gravity
|
| Rising above all the negativity
|
| I’ve got a long list of things they said I couldn’t do
|
| I didn’t know I couldn’t fly, therefore I flew
|
| So I scratch and claw, chisel and chip
|
| With a heart-shaped hammer and good firm grip
|
| Keep on swinging, climbing those charts
|
| Sharing that soul till you’re touching those hearts
|
| Don’t wanna waste even one breath
|
| Don’t wanna waste time being scared to death
|
| So take that leap of faith
|
| Go and shake your fear of flying
|
| If you don’t believe then you won’t
|
| So keep on losing until you don’t
|
| You know you get just what you give so
|
| Live or die trying
|
| You gotta work your hands to the bone
|
| And keep your dreams to the grindstone
|
| If it was easy there’d be nothing to it
|
| Daddy said if it was easy everyone would do it
|
| I’ve had doors slammed in my face
|
| I know well the taste of last place
|
| You get back up fighting when you fall
|
| The worst thing you can do is do nothing at all
|
| Don’t wanna waste even one breath
|
| Don’t wanna waste time being scared to death
|
| So take that leap of faith
|
| Go and shake your fear of flying
|
| 'Cause if you don’t believe then you won’t
|
| So keep on losing until you don’t
|
| You know you get just what you give so
|
| Live or die trying
|
| 'Cause you know fame is just a name that’s gonna fade away
|
| Long to be forgotten once it’s chiseled on your grave
|
| Fortune’s a frame of mind so don’t sell your soul
|
| There ain’t no luggage rack when it comes your time to go
|
| Say a prayer for the weary, broken-hearted and the poor
|
| Say a prayer for the rich and greedy always wanting more
|
| Make a wish upon a star, blow a kiss up to the moon
|
| And live your life for those who got their wings too soon
|
| Don’t wanna waste even one breath
|
| Don’t wanna waste time being scared to death
|
| So take that leap of faith
|
| Go and shake your fear of flying
|
| 'Cause if you don’t believe then you won’t
|
| So keep on losing until you don’t
|
| You know you get just what you give so
|
| Live or die trying
|
| You know you get just what you give so
|
| Live or die trying
|
| Defying odds, I’m defying gravity
|
| Rising above all the negativity
|
| I’ve got a long list of things they said I couldn’t do
|
| I didn’t know I couldn’t fly, therefore I flew |
