Ay, okay, your life is going swell until the day that you find
There’s a black box hidden inside of your mind
Passing the limit line you’re in it for a ride
It’s about time you step out and start living your life
Life is a bitch and we all know that
It ain’t perfect but give it a chance
Ready, stop, you know it’s only the way of the world
So just do your best, forget the rest, yeah, here we go
All this time I thought if I
I didn’t feel the pain I’d be fine
So I suppressed my heart and my mind
Letting all my passion die
I guess I’m not that different after all
From the people I’ve always despised
And I hate myself but it’s come to this
That I’m holding myself back without even really knowing why
No matter what I do, I know my dream
It has not a single chance of coming true
And no one can ever hope to smother out this flame in my heart
Yeah, even if the rain just pouring down forever every day and night
It soaks me to my very core
I’ll keep this fire burning
Deep inside of my soul my pride burns bright
It started pouring down just like I believed it would
But then, to my surprise, many friends were gathered at my side
While we talked of hopes and dreams, all our fun was and pure and good
But we got riled up and we started a fist fight
We haven’t changed a bit, I will admit, from our early childhood days
‘Cause back then we still fought all the same
But we wanted to run away
I still remember when you laughed and said
Time hasn’t changed you at all
I couldn’t help but laugh too
Till I couldn’t even hear the rain fall
We’ve gotta stand our ground, live with no fear
Or even the thought alone will bring us down
I’m scared when I think about the seconds I had let go to waste
Yeah, but now I see in a moment when the sky is clear
I’m really my own enemy
But I know I can’t give up just yet
Deep inside of my soul my pride burns bright
Ready, stop, you know it’s only the way of the world
So just do your best, forget the rest, yeah, here we go
Stop, you know it’s only the way of the world
So just do your best, forget the rest, yeah, here we go
No matter what I do whenever I’m alone at night
I start to lose myself a little more to the fight
Yeah, but I know if you were by my side that I could change that fate
And make it through this final storm
And whatever else might be in store
Yeah, no matter how things turn out, if I look lame
That’s something I’m no longer worried about
As long as I manage to rewrite my fate, I don’t give a damn
Yeah, they say that destiny is set in stone
But I don’t care if that’s what I’ve been told
I will prove that I can change it
And until then I won’t quit
‘Cause deep inside my core pride
I know it’s always burning bright
I can’t just let it go out yet, this fire in my heart
Under my breath I can’t forget the feeling burning hot
I can’t just let it go out yet, this fire in my heart
Through tears and sweat
Till my last breath
I’ll be the light
My pride burns bright
