Creative Mind

I always was the kid who sat in class and dreamed of stories
They saw numbers, I saw colors, just how it was
The teachers never understood my frame forever worried
Wanted total recall the only default didn't see as dumb
They'd say why you got your head up in the clouds
I'd say why'd I want to stay there on the ground
Never thought I'd make anything of myself just useless
Had to get stronger to hold on longer, that's what I did

I heard if you don't quit
Then you're bound to win
So I've gotta dream big
Cause I won't give in
Ima take this vision to the top
For the kid who feels he's not enough
And we'll shine through the dark
Be who we are

Never understood the way I was, It got so lonely
Everyone though I wasn't good enough to make it work
Had to go for hours and hours through sweat and tears
To write a different story
But it all was worth, the pain endured it helped me learn
Sometimes critics are the ones that make us thrive
Lack of honest words, the quickest way to die
And as I'm getting older all these memories got me grateful
It brought me here, the greatest year I've ever known

I heard if you don't quit
Then you're bound to win
So I've gotta dream big
Cause I won't give in
Ima take this vision to the top
For the kid who feels he's not enough
And we'll shine through the dark
Be who we are
Like shooting stars
Like shooting stars
