She moves to la.
she wants to be somebody.
3 1/2 years later she's still not anybody.
still hopin' for a break
while she waitin' tables,
realizin' some dreams are fables.
Fear grows when she knows
that she's outta control.
throwin' up in the bathroom
hopin' that nobody knows.
and she fears she's a failure.
she forgets that god loves her
You tried and you failed,
hold your head up high.
you climbed and you fell,
hold your head up high.
you tried and you failed,
hold your head up high, hold your head up, hold your head up high.
"cause if we never make it ever,
then it's gonna be ok with me.
'cause if it's not ok to fall sometimes,
it's not ok to be.
if they don't want us,
it's ok, honest,
it doesn't have to bring me down.
let them say were not big rock stars.
it's not what we're about.
we don't have to be rock stars
we don't have to be rock stars
They said he'd never make it
maybe they're right.
his parents never believed that his dream could take flight.
all he every wanted was for them to be proud of him,
it was the whole world to him,
he needed to win.
he gave it his everything
but sometimes it's not enough.
he thinks he's a falure
now he's not worth being loved.
he forgets he had he courage to climb up so high.
the courage to try.
the courage to fly.

It's not about success.
life is not a test.
you don't pass or fail,
you just do your best.
to see the view from wings of courage.
to push on through when we're discouraged,
it's all about the try,
all about the ride,
learnin' how you were meant to touch the sky.
failures are flyers who touched down.
only they know what it's like to leave the ground
