verse 1:

somewhere in the distance

i can see a mirror of myself

who i hope to be someday

finding my reflection always there

but made so hard to see

when itÂ's so clear

clear to me, that



pre-chorus:

when the water rises

reach for higher ground

lose your fear of flying

leave your doubts up in the clouds



chorus:

sometimes you gotta work

a little harder

sometimes you gotta be

a bit smarter

hold on just a little bit longer

just be true to yourself

at time youÂ'll be the only one standing

donÂ't matter if you say you donÂ't fit in

donÂ't try to be anyone else

just be true to yourself



verse 2:

somewhere in the future

for sure the past will come

to show its face

when it reflects what will you say

be sure thereÂ's an answer

we have learned from our mistakes

gotta do your best to change today



repeat pre-chorus and chours



bridge:

we all fall, we all cry

everybody, hurts sometimes



we all lose, we all win

we all try again

hey, hey yeah



repeat chorus (x3)
