So many years
Full of pain and sacrifice
No one seemed to realise
Had to compromise what I believed in
So many times
That I've watched my dream's demise
But the writings in the sky
Made me keep my head up and keep singing
Oh oh oh oh
I carry on
And all those nights
Of ambition and desire
Guided by an inner fire
That would keep me warm and raise my spirit
The road is long
And it's full of bitter trials
Full of stugles and denial
But undying strength lies deep within me
There is no try
There is only do or die
Raise my fist and touch the sky
And there's nothing that will stand in my way
I've paid the price
And it's left me scared for life
But no matter how they try
I will not give up, I'll do it my way
