Lyrics
Speak Up, Defy We wonder why Its tough to try But words are useless When theyre held inside Speak up, defy Or just scrape by Become the tiger That changes The colors of his stripes I cant deny Its tough to try So speak up, defy Im destined to impress Im hiding below the radar My sights are set Well see this eye to eye Something stirs And Ive waited my turn I cant fault trial When errors all I found Ive settled before I know it shows Ive let the trains Come pass me by I've asked myself This once before And I cant sit In the back seat no more And I've made up my mind Should I try? Yes Ill try Id shoot the stars In hopes for a chance to shine In a sky That we all try to own Did your strategy Bend this time? Rest your feet You must be tired Running circles In that state of mind How long did you Push that stone For it to roll back down? Dont fault trial when Errors all you found Ive settled before I know it shows Ive let the trains Come pass me by Ive settled before So far below The undertow Ill surface With dreams In full supply
