  • (Oh)
    Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather (oh)
    Another roadblock in our way (ohh-oh)
    But if we go, we go together (oh)
    Our hands are tied here if we stay (ohh-oh)

    Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
    And if they don't fly we'll run
    Now we push right past to find out
    Oh, how to win what they all lost

    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for
    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for (oh)

    So let them say we can't do better (oh)
    Lay out the rules that we can't break (ohh-oh)
    They want to sit and watch it wither (oh)
    Their legacy's too hard to take (ohh-oh)

    Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
    And if they don't fly we'll run
    Now we push right past to find out
    Oh, how to win what they all lost

    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for
    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for

    In their heads, hedging their bets
    In their eyes it shows
    When the beacon breaks well then
    You ask and they don't know
    Oh tell me that
    I turn my back well the odds all stand beneath me
    And they all said I was mislead
    The odds all stand beneath me

    Oh ah, oh ah
    They're frozen to the core
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for
    Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
    And if they don't fly we will run
    Now we push right past to find out
    Oh, how to win what they all lost

    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for
    Oh ah, oh ah
    We know now we want more
    Oh ah, oh ah
    A life worth fighting for

    (Oh, oh)

    We hear that rumble don't hear what you say
    Now here we come can't throw nothing in our way
    We hear that rumble don't hear what you say
    Now here we come can't throw nothing in our way, ay-yo

    (Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
    Ay-yo
    Ay-yo (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
