Every day, each hour, we all make our choices
there’re so many things to do
but if you can find a thing to believe in
all your wildest dreams come true
There’s an answer to be found for your question
every rainbow has an end
every one of us has some kind of blessing
truth is what you need to win
Stay close to the ground
dig your heels in and don’t be afraid
it’s easy to begin
firm roots are what you need to win
Doesn’t matter what you’ve done to this moment
all that matters is where you go
and it’s never much too late to start over
‘cause the net result will show
So when you wake up and start every morning
take a minute just to breathe
‘cause you never know where this day may take you
you may have an ace up your sleeve
Stay close to the ground
dig your heels in and don’t be afraid
it’s easy to begin
firm roots are what you need to win
SHOUT:
Every soul has its own special role
that nobody else can play
In your heart you’ll uncover the part
that no one can take away
Life becomes a wonderful dance
when you take a chance
VAMP OUT:
Every soul is a part of the whole
Every soul plays a valuable role
In you heart you’ll see, the key to the mystery
In your heart you’ll find, a little light that will shine
