| I remember childhood gloom
|
| Memories untouched, kick, kiss, bloom
|
| Mess swept under the rug, ahead
|
| Never the one who bled enough to fix this wound
|
| Friend of the miserable, hangin' from the side
|
| Born wolf pack, sheep turned butterfly, dead flower
|
| Shower, with a mind full of paint
|
| To give praise and thanks to my mother, my father
|
| For ever making the decision to bring another voice
|
| To a choir that could already sing
|
| It’s no surprise when living the dream
|
| I get so sick of feeling high it gives me reason to sing
|
| The same reason why the mystery stings
|
| And why the man on the corner’s got a trick up his sleeve
|
| For every panhandled daughter knows prince of the thieves
|
| I’mma stand here as long as it could take him to leave, please
|
| I spent a lot of time manning up to have it back
|
| What I miss, I was young and loved enough to channel that
|
| Right here, right now
|
| Everything is picture, perfect clear
|
| Somehow, right here, right now
|
| Everything is picture, perfect clear
|
| Somehow, right here, right now
|
| Right here, right, now
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| And what’s better than finding something you lost
|
| Admitting that you’re wrong
|
| Or saying sorry to someone you love
|
| Not much, but having a child’s gotta be the closest thing
|
| To showing the world that your not giving up
|
| Or giving in to the pressure that I know you feel
|
| Or giving in to the skin that you may not want
|
| But when we choose to face the weaknesses that we have made
|
| It teaches us to keep a clean slate and remain strong
|
| With the pain you endure comes the freedom to decide
|
| Whether or not your gonna stay or leave
|
| There’s nothing more fulfilling than knowing that
|
| Every cut you undergo, and overcome
|
| Is because you’ve always believed
|
| There are no mistakes only choices that I’ve made
|
| Which in return have taught me lessons on the player in the game
|
| The world I see outside is a reflection of me
|
| And the direction that I take is where the message remains
|
| I watched a thousand horses back down the mountain side
|
| Just to get back to the bottom and look up at the sky
|
| I looked up as well, and to my surprise
|
| There was one young pony with the sun in his eyes
|
| He was ready to live, he was ready to ride
|
| He was ready to run, he was ready to die
|
| I’m not sure what he did, but I know he was ready
|
| And whatever it was it made the rest of us decide to climb
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| A lot to learn, A little to know
|
| I’ll reach for the top put my feet in a hole
|
| You gotta go through the storm to appreciate the sun
|
| And a rainbow the sum is the way of the sea doesn’t grow from it
|
| Love it, leave it alone, now touch it, hug it, feed it a bone
|
| Give it your story for a piece of the puzzle
|
| Admit that your blind, and in time it’ll see on it’s own
|
| Don’t believe in snakes, not in evil
|
| I believe in change, and put my faith in people
|
| Everyone is built the same my inner struggle loves control
|
| That’s good for strangers to relate to where some fathers wouldn’t go
|
| But when it all crumbles don’t wait for the hero
|
| Stomach that tummy ache
|
| And create mirrors through other individuals you meet on the path
|
| Because the connection that we crave becomes complete when we fear
|
| No nightmare stuck to a meaningful feeling
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| The dream is on the rise
|
| I can see it in your eyes
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it
|
| If there’s a sky then you can make it |
