Lyrics
Do if you dare (ah, yeah)
Do if you dare (by any means necessary)
Do if you dare
Dare to differ, dare to be different
Change the rules
Become the leader of your own new school
Well, have a mind of your own (a mind)
Or be somebody else's fool
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
Know the power lies inside of you (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (just take the chance)
Why do we always fall in line?
Walking to the beat of another man's time
Why do we hesitate to shine?
I wanna know (Why?)
Why do we always wait to see
Rather than act instinctively?
We move as though our minds aren't free
I wanna know (Why?)
Dare to differ, dare to be different
Change the rules
Become the leader of your own new school
Well, have a mind of your own (a mind)
Or be somebody else's fool
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
Know the power lies inside of you (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Why is it so easy to say, "Oh no, it wasn't me"?
Well, who said modesty's the key?
I wanna know (why?)
Why do we always seem to scorn those who try to break the norm?
Criticize, but we're afraid to take the bull by the horns
Dare to differ, dare to be different
Change the rules
Become the leader of your own new school
Listen, have a mind of your own (a mind)
Or be somebody else's fool
Do if you dare (do you dare?) (Do if you dare)
Know the power lies inside of you (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (this is our time)
When will we see that progress is the key? (When?)
It's about that time now
Make a change
Our confidence will keep us growing strong
Don't be afraid, just shout it out loud
Oh, why do we suffer so much pain?
When there's so much more for all of us to gain
Forget your wallets, man, just use your brain
You know I'm saying?
When will we all finally learn that we deserve exactly what we earn?
There ain't no shame, just show your pride to all concern, come on
Dare to differ, dare to be different
Change the rules
Become the leader of your own new school
Listen, have a mind of your own
Or you gonna be somebody else's fool
Do if you dare (and only if you dare) (do if you dare)
Know the power lies inside of you (or check the strategy by any means necessary, come on)
Do if you dare (I can read the writing on the wall) (do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (just dare to differ)
(Dare to be different, change the rules)
Do if you dare (do if you dare) (ah, yeah)
Know the power lies inside of you (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Do if you dare (do you, and you, and you, and you really dare?) (Do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (check the strategy by any means necessary) (everything is possible)
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
Know the power lies inside of you (check the strategy by any means necessary)
Do if you dare (do if you dare)
You can do all that you wanna do (check if the strategy by any means necessary)
