VERSE 1
If you’re living your life
Just to survive,
Well, then, you’re not really living. 
No, you’re not really living at all. 
And if you’re tryin’ to get by sitting on the side lines
Watching your favorite game,
You’re never gonna be the one to play.
You can’t take life sitting down.
Don’t waste your short time on earth
With your feet
Always planted on solid ground.
If you think that you’re confined
By all these limits surrounding you, 
You’ve gotta know, that’s not true.
There’s a great journey waiting for you.
And all you’ve gotta do is find it.

CHORUS
Don’t let the world
Get in your way.
If it spits on you,
Let that spit polish your shoe.
You’ve gotta do
Everything
That you want to do.
Or you’re not really living.
No, you’re not really living at all.
You’re not really living.
No, no, no, no, you know you’re not.
No, not really.

VERSE 2
If you’re not living your dream,
Then your life probably sucks.
Why should you settle for less
Just ‘cause you’re earning big bucks?
Or ‘cause you’re trying to take the easy way out?
You can’t fight for what’s right 
If you let your goals be consumed by 
Doubt. You’ve gotta work it out.

CHORUS

VERSE 3
If you’re not living your life 
On the edge,
Then you’re just taking up space.
Not taking risks is a waste.
Don’t ever let a single chance in life pass you by.
If you’re waiting till you’re ready, 
You’re just waiting to 
Die.

CHORUS
