Lyrics
TO THE TOP
It's so hard to keep sight of your goal
And to keep moving forward
People shoot down your dreams and make it hard to cut the cord
And it hurts deep down inside
They cut a big chunk from your pride
I know that life holds something more than they gave me
And I know that no one will jump in and save me
And it's very plain to see
That it's all up to me
And I wonder what's in store for me out there
Will I climb to the top or struggle all the way
But no matter what's ahead, well I'm gonna take the dare
'Cause I know "I Made It"'s gonna feel really good to say
I know when they doubt I often strike out in anger
But the fire burns so hot it's hard to put my feelings on a hanger
And it's the only thing I see
And it's all up to me
There's only one thing on my mind
To get to the top no matter how high I have to climb
Time is grabbing out at me
But the light is all I see
If you want something bad this is worth remembering
Believe in yourself 'cause doubt is a contagious thing
And what I say is true
Yes it's all up to you
Reach for that star, although it seems so far away
It's that desire, that keeps you going from day to day
And once you get there, you'll look back and want to say
I am happy just to be where I am today
There's only one thing on my mind
To get to the top, no matter how high I have to climb
Time is grabbing out at me
But the light is all I see
They say I'm going nowhere on a treadmill at full steam
Maybe they're consumed with jealousy 'cause they didn't chase after their dream
Maybe I should keep my ambitions to myself
But this feelings much too hard to hide
Want to tell everybody, tell everybody what I feel inside
When I do what I do I burst with pride
It takes me home
