lyrics

See I come from a place not far from here
Where everybody knows my name
Where the, the streets are dusty and the roads are long
And you've got to learn the rules of the game

And I grew up the son of a preacher man
Who taught me to know right from wrong
But I learnt that life is hard
Hanging out in the schoolyard
You may have to learn to fight before long

So if you're feeling like the world is against you
Stand up
Don't give up
No one can take it away from you

Well I've come this far
And I won't turn back now
And my mind's made up
I'm gonna do this my own way

I've had some times when I've been down
I've got trouble just like everyone else
And I've been accused of things that weren't true
Told I'd never get it right by myself

It's a crazy situation when you hit the wall
And you're stuck you don't know which way is up
When it seems there's no way round
No answer can be found
You get out by going over the top

So if you're feeling like the world is against you
Stand up
Don't give up
No one can take it away from you

Well I've come this far
And I won't turn back now
And my mind's made up
I'm gonna do this my own way

Well I've come this far
And I won't turn back now
And my mind's made up
I'm gonna do this my own way

I can reach the stars
If I just stop looking down
Lift my eyes straight up
I'm gonna do this my own way
