Second Wind - Mettle Lyrics

We have all bought the lie
Somewhere along the way
We have all bought the lie
Somewhere along the way

The world wants you to believe
Your dreams are best left in the dust
Sitting up on a shelf
Forgotten and
Tossed to the side

We have all
Been deceived
Filled with thoughts
Of malice and greed

It's time to show our mettle
What we need now is

Courage

I have tried all my life
To be one
With my hopes and dreams
Letting the world
Get the best of me

I can no longer see
All of the forces corrupting me
No longer will they meddle
In my life

It's time to start living for me

We will not be brought down
Into a shallow grave
We will rise above this
And bury our mistakes

Oh

I have tried all my life
To be one
With my hopes and dreams
Letting the world
Get the best of me

I can no longer see
All of the forces corrupting me
No longer will they meddle
In my life

It's time to start living for me

I am so tired of all these days
Passing me by
With nothing to say
I am so tired of all these days
Passing me by
With nothing to say

I
Can try
Everyday
To be
So much better

I have tried all my life
To be one
With my hopes and dreams
Letting the world
Get the best of me

I can no longer see
All of the forces corrupting me
No longer will they meddle
In my life

It's time to start living for me
