Dream
That's a powerful word
You'll get knocked down many times chasing your dreams
You'll feel like you don't have the energy to get back up
You don't have the strength to get back up
You'll feel like giving up is the only option
Dream… such a heavy word
For a fragile, burning light
You chase it through the shadows
And you fight with all your might
You get knocked down so many times, you lose the will to stand
You feel the weight of failure in the palm of your hand
Your breath is short, your spirit's bruised, you're empty and you're weak
You feel like giving up is the only peace you'll seek.
The world it doesn't see the tears
That fall behind the smile
It just sees that you are stumbling
After every single mile
You get knocked down so many times, you lose the will to stand
You feel the weight of failure in the palm of your hand
Your breath is short, your spirit's bruised, you're empty and you're weak
You feel like giving up is the only peace you'll seek.
But in that quiet, broken moment
On the floor, a flicker stirs
A memory of the fire
A defiant, whispered word…
Dream…
I’ll get back up.
I’ll get back up.
