{verse 1} From these bright days to these darkest nights All I ever want to see are these glowing lights All I ever want to do is to take my life to these certain heights So to night I'm gonna stand and fight This is the start of the journey so I begin down below One shot, one life I'm not gonna let it go All I need now is this pen, pad, and microphone I feel like I conquered my fears, but I'm still scared Of cancelling my dreams, cuz I'm going no where But this is my life, my story that I'm willing to share Best friends leaving Girlfriends cheating Damn man I'm surprised that I'm still breathing Going through these emotions Asking God why am I so broken Time to make my dreams go right into motion While these fake friends forget my name My family makes me sane As my uncle said I need one more day so I say {Hook} This is my life and no ones going to take it from me, me Look up in the sky tell me how many stars can you see, see You continue to doubt I'll still follow my dreams, dreams Cuz this is my life and no ones going to take it form me, me {verse 2} As I write this, I think of all the sh** that happen to me Like one of my friends told me to give up on my dream But screw you The journey I've took has been harder than what you have been through You wouldn't be able to walk 5 seconds in my shoes Now my best friends are smoking weed and drinking booze My conscience and demons are battling I don't know which side to choose You see me with my close friends acting like goofs
But if you look at my history it just proves that I've got nothing left to lose I'm not do this for you I'm doing this for me This is a kid trying to persue his dreams I'm climbing to the top Lookin for a hero I swear I'll be it To you bullies and haters you guys don't really mean sh** {Hook} This is my life and no ones going to take it from me, me Look up in the sky tell me how many stars can you see, see You continue to doubt I'll still follow my dreams, dreams Cuz this is my life and no ones going to take it form me, me {verse 3} Mamma you raise me as a boy Now watch me grow into a man You seen my leaps and bounds so of all people you could understand Why I say the cuts and bruises are useless And how these bullies are so blind to see what the truth is See my destination is heaven but the journey was through hell Depression was a shell and I hand to expel And to the girl with the blue eyes that I still falling for Just keep being yourself and I'll shall never ask for more My smiles might turn into frowns one day And heart might get broken again one day I swear to you I will be okay But tonight I will stand strong and I will say {Hook} This is my life and no ones going to take it from me, me Look up in the sky tell me how many stars can you see, see You continue to doubt I'll still follow my dreams, dreams Cuz this is my life and no ones going to take it form me, (Mars) me
