Wakin' up from a dream far away from home Think' bout things you said about people Who just don't know On the morning train I ride, taking me to the other side To a life many said I'd never realize Rising above the noise, I take my place on high Knowing the right choice I hold the key to my life When told to hold back when under their attak You taught me to defy I won't be late Late for the morning train I won't be late Late for the morning train Your hand shielded me from their mediocrity By makin' it plain to me without fear I could be free As they turned away grumblin' stumblin' going their separate ways I remember you said, people like that ain't got much to say Rising above the noise, I take my place on high Knowing the right choice I hold the key to my life When told to hold back when under their attack You taught me to defy You said no matter where I go, to take the moment in stride To remember what has made me better To know that worlds collide I hear your words in time to release my hold upon on our plac When all their powers are arrayed Against my stars Probing my scars The morning train will arrive Never be late Not gonna be late for The morning train
