It seems that the world around you has been getting you down
You say, it just ain’t worth your time,… to keep standing your ground
Oh, but I’ve got a different perspective,… that helps guide my way
You see, I don’t let the people around me,…
Try to limit the dreams I’ve made
It’s all how you face it,…. That can help you to make it
(CHORUS)
Yeah, you’ve got to pick yourself up and get back in the game
Break yourself free from the chains that you’ve made
Keep your mind focused on the flame that’s true
The future is up to you
So never surrender,… ‘Cause you’re still a contender
And keep on believing,… In all the dreams you’re conceiving
You’ve got the power to make it,… So just reach out and take it
Stay tried and true,… In all the things that you do
The future’s up to you,….
The future’s up to you,… And all the things that you do
So now when the world around you starts getting you down
Stand firm on your own convictions,… even when you’re losing ground
Just build on a new perspective,… to help guide your way
And don’t let those people around you,…
Try to limit the dreams you’ve made
It’s all how you face it,… That can help you to make it
(CHORUS) - (GUITAR SOLO) - (CHORUS)
(Ladies Fade Chorus)
Stand tall,… in spite of it all. The future’s up to you
Stay strong and keep holding on. You’ve got nothing to lose
Keep pace,… in spite of the race. The future’s up to you
It’s your dime,… you’ve still got time to choose
