lyrics

It started when you were born.
When you were young, you didn't know what was in store.
Small town, big city, or wherever you're from,
Those dreams will be achieved with all your passion.
There's more to life than what high school has to offer.
It's only four years, then the path is yours to alter.

It doesn't matter where you were born.
(Who cares where you came from?)
You don't have to leave your talents at the door.
(This chord you will strum.)
Leaving this town will set your free
(This is your goodbye.)
From all these people whose views you disagree.
(Those you will defy.)
They all said you can't find success,
(But in your defense)
Now you're moving on to constant progress.

These kids revolving around your life had nothing better to do
Than to put you down with words, unaware of your big breakthrough.
They said you won't go far out of this dead-end town.
But you proved them wrong and you said,
"You can't ever put me down."

It doesn't matter where you were born.
(Who cares where you came from?)
You don't have to leave your talents at the door.
(This chord you will strum.)
Leaving this town will set your free
(This is your goodbye.)
From all these people whose views you disagree.
(Those you will defy.)
They all said you can't find success,
(But in your defense)
Now you're moving on to constant progress.

What you do with your life,
Through the days and the nights,
You better make sure your decisions feel right.
And time can wear thin,
But keep wearing that grin.
Everything you've built up will seep into your skin.
It's the life that you have sewn,
Become the person that you own.

It doesn't matter where you were born.
(Who cares where you came from?)
You don't have to leave your talents at the door.
(This chord you will strum.)
Leaving this town will set your free
(This is your goodbye.)
From all these people whose views you disagree.
(Those you will defy.)
They all said you can't find success,
(But in your defense)
Now you're moving on to constant progress.
