For The Cause

We go on and on and on

You say—Never reach for the stars

You say—You’ll never get too far

You say—It’s a lost cause

I go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on

You say—Never reach for the stars

You say—You won’t get too far

You say—We’re a lost cause

We go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on

I see a world with no limits

You say I’m being naive

Well I’m not young or privileged

I know what I’ve lived, what I’ve seen

Yeah, we all struggle

The hard times, they keep us humble

Your words cut into me

They left a mark that reminds me

This world will test us all

Your doubt fuels my cause

You say—Never reach for the stars

You say—You’ll never get too far

You say—It’s a lost cause

I go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on

You say—Never reach for the stars

You say—You won’t get too far

You say—We’re a lost cause

We go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on

I say the sky is the limit

You can’t see past the overcast

Above the darkness is where I’m headed

Where hope is vast

We should never let go

Of all the pain and words that echo

Say I can’t say I won’t again

Give me the fuel that I need to ascend

This world will test our resolve

Your hate fuels my

My cause, my beliefs

My victories and defeats

They’re mine and only mine

My cause, my beliefs

My vindication will set me free

You can’t undermine

Can’t hold me back

Can’t set me back

You can’t hold me back

We go on and on and on

You say—Never reach for the stars

You say—You’ll never get too far

You say—It’s a lost cause

I go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on

You say!

You say!

You say!

Fuck what you say

We go on and on and on—Keep on keeping on
