TOMORROW’S HEROES

There are people in this world 
who will pull ya down.
They’ll tie a rope around your ankles 
if your feet ever leave the ground.
Like an anchor they will hold you 
when a dream says, “Time to go.”
So before your passions drift away 
there’s somethin’ you should know.

CHORUS:
Dreams don’t live by other people’s rules.
Tomorrow’s heroes were yesterday’s fools.
Dreams don’t live by other people’s rules.
The only one they’ll listen to is you
yeah, yeah you.

Take a look around you. 
All we have was built on dreams.
One man’s vision brought the light, 
so in darkness we can see.
You may miss the mark many times 
before you get it right;
but the only way to truly fail 
is to never try.

REPEAT CHORUS (2 times)

You’re the only one they’ll listen to.
