Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Can't believe we've come this far and
It feels just like getting started
Somehow we're still running
Like those kids back then, kids back then
Scraped some knees and fallen down, but
Somehow we keep getting back up
Long as there is wonder
Gonna keep running, yeah, we'll keep running
In this moment, it's electric
Can you see it? Can you feel it?
This dream inside is still alive today
Yeah, we're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way to breaking through
'Cause we were made for something new
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way to chase our dreams
'Cause we were made for greater things
Yeah, we're on our way
Here's to all the scared and frozen
Too afraid of the unknown and
Second-guessing everything you once believed
There's no fear that can bind you
There's nowhere hope won't find you
As long as we have hope
We have everything we need
Yeah, we're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way to breaking through
'Cause we were made for something new
Yeah, we're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way to chase our dreams
'Cause we were made for greater things
Yeah, we're on our way
Oh-oh, oh-oh
In this moment (In this moment)
It's electric (It's electric)
Can you see it? Can you feel it?
This dream inside is still alive
We're on our way
We're on our way to breaking through
'Cause we were made for something new
Yeah, we're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
We're on our way to chase our dreams
'Cause we were made for greater things
Yeah, we're on our way
There's no fear that can bind you (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
There's nowhere hope won't find you (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
As long as we have hope
We have everything we need
We're on our way
Yeah, we're on our way
