Lyrics
These are tough times we live in
But still we can't just give in
We must stand tall and live strong
It's up to the youth to live on
And carry this torch we pass down
You see, I know it's not the last round
In the next generation, my faith is unwavering
My confidence in you is unshakable
Because I know that you're willing and far beyond capable
Of doing all that must be done
But to do it all, we must be as one
Life can be better than most of us dream
So once you take the reins
Believe in your greatness, which lies within
And for the better, this world will change
I see that you want it (want it)
I see that you're working for it
So don't take no days off
It's gonna be all right
I see that you love it (love it)
I want you to know that
Before you can see it, you gotta believe it
You're the generation of tomorrow
The pursuit starts today
And all time is borrowed
So you have no ways
You and I (you and I), oh I repeat, you and I
Put on this earth to lose
And you are hard (you are hard), yeah I repeat it, you are hard
So do what you do
We gon' do it big
We gon' make a scene
We gon' take the doubters
Make them all believe
We gon' be the change that we wanna see
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
We can have the world, we can have it all
Nothing is too big, nothing is too small
We gon' be the change that we wanna see
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
Oh, no, no, no
I see that it's in your heart
I see that it's in your heart
I feel it (I feel it), I feel your desire
It only takes one spark
It only takes one spark
To set it, to set it on fire
You're the generation of tomorrow
But the world's lost today
And old time has burned
So there's no time to waste
You and I (you and I), oh I repeat, you and I
Put on this earth to lose
And you are hard (you are hard), yeah I repeat it, you are hard
So do what you do
We gon' do it big
We gon' make a scene
We gon' take the doubters
Make them all believe
We gon' be the change that we wanna see
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
We can have the world, we can have it all
Nothing is too big, nothing is too small
We gon' be the change (we gon' be the change) that we wanna see (that we wanna see)
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
You can have anything you want but know the work must still be done (must still be done)
And the power to change the world is in your hand (just believe you can)
What is a dream (what is a dream) without action?
Nothing but a reason to stay asleep
You gotta wake up (you gotta wake up), make decisions
Life is for the living
And it's yours, but you gotta go get it
We gon' do it big
We gon' make a scene
We gon' take the doubters (we gon' take the doubters)
Make them all believe (make them all believe)
We gon' be the change that we wanna see
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
We can have the world, we can have it all
Nothing is too big, nothing is too small
We gon' be the change that we wanna see
We're not takin' average, chasin' legend status
We gon' do it big, yeah
Or nothing
Do it, all we gonna do is do it
Nothing, nothing, nothing can stop us now
No
But still we can't just give in
We must stand tall and live strong
It's up to the youth to live on
And carry this torch we pass down
You see, I know it's not the last round
In the next generation, my faith is unwavering
My confidence in you is unshakable
Because I know that you're willing and far beyond capable
