I woke up and I felt a lil different today
The sun was in my eyes
But a smile was on my face
I didn't have any plans
But in my mind I began to understand
That today I was given a chance to make something of me

You see it's hard to get back up
When you've been knocked down to the ground
But I heard a small voice
From inside of my head
It said

If you gotta dream
You betta chase it
But you gotta work hard
cnd be patient
Reach for the stars
Right where you are
cnd don't be afraid to give your whole heart
cnd dream
cnd then Chase It

I met an old man and he said that he had a vision
He didn't have a lot of money
But he sho'll had lots of wisdom
He said I thought I was livin', but who am I kiddin'
I always chose to play it safe
I had a dream in my heart
But I chose to hide it away

He said, It's hard to get back up
When you've been knocked down to the ground
But if I could go back, there's one thing that I would change
He said

If you gotta dream
You betta chase it
But you gotta work hard
cnd Be patient
Reach for the Stars
Right where you are
cnd don't be afraid to give your whole heart
cnd dream
cnd then Chase It
