The Carrot, The Stick, And the String

I've been down for so long
I could only hang my head
I'd listen to the words they said
But nothing resonated
I've been swindled and spun
Seeing what was to come
Was nothing that I wanted

And when I started to sing
I could see clearly how
To make it out alive

I've been dreaming big
Since I was little
And I know what I was working for
Every single sacrifice
Every single time I cried
It was worth it

I packed all my things
Said my goodbyes to friends
Without really knowing
When I'd see them again

So I took the reigns instead
To quiet the fears in my head

I've been dreaming big since I was little
And I know what I was working for
Every single sacrifice
Every single time I cried
It was worth it

I gave the best of all the love I had
I was unclouded by the thought of holding back
You took the shyness out of me immediately
I never thought that love would get the best of me
You got the best of me

I've been dreaming big
Since I was little
So I took the reigns instead
To quiet the fears in my head
