This is the time
To rise above the pollution of this world
Shine your light through
The lifeless masses let it be what binds you
To break through the judgemental labels
That hold you back
To catch your breath from it's chokehold
Always inching towards your neck
Stand up and break the mold
Make your mark, go for gold
You'll miss your chance if you hesitate
Don't hold back always keep your heart straight
You have to make yourself known
Shine your light and be bold
You have to fight the standard
Don't give up and never surrender
Always remember never surrender
Sometimes it feels like life has bet against you
Stuck in a crowded world and no one to help you
You have to set aside the distractions that confine you
Make your mark, go for gold
Let no one bind you
Through pain through strife
We lose we gain just for life
There is something more than all of this
Fight now it's worth the risk
There's more to us then what's on the surface
We have a choice, we have a greater purpose
I can't take this torture
I will protect and nurture
I am where I'm meant to be
I won't deny my destiny
No matter the voices in my head
I will not break
I will not be mislead
You have to make yourself known
Shine your light and be bold
You have to fight the standard
Don't give up and never surrender
Always remember never surrender
Rise up together
Fighting forever
In this crowded world
We can't lose sight of our dreams
In this crowded world
We all have a path to lead
Our hearts the roots
Our minds the seed
In this crowded world
