Find your light
Don't hide from who you are
And rise before you fall
In hope for something more
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to

All my life
I've been looking for something amazing
It's almost like I've been stargazing
The sky is right above me

We
Were meant for something bigger than this
Don't ever try to dismiss
Yourself, cause you don't have to

Find your light
Don't hide from what you are
And rise before you fall
In hope for something more
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to

All my life
My dreams just seem so far away
And now it's like
They're here to stay
I hold it close to me
Oh

We
Were meant for something bigger than this
Don't ever try to dismiss
Yourself, cause you don't have to

Find your light
Don't hide from who you are
And rise before you fall
In hope for something more
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to

Find your light
Don't hide from who you are
And rise before you fall
In hope for something more
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to
Live if you really want to
