Icarus

Every step I take the shadows seem to grow But I won't turn back now it's the only road I know I can't sit idly by I have to stand for what is right Sometimes to right the wrongs we must be prepared to fight I've faced a thousand doubts I've walked through fire and rain But something in my heart says my efforts aren't in vain For every scar I carry is another badge I've earned Each battle lost and won another lesson I have learned Well I may singe my wings Or I might go down in flames But still I have to try Or I'll never be the same I have to make that leap of faith I have to fight against the odds And I'll race against the Devil And I'll stand up to the gods Icarus had his moment in the sun And I won't stop trying 'til I've won The world has turned and I can't seem to understand Why no one sees the future as a cause worth fighting for We've got to start somewhere come on and take my hand The cause is never lost unless we don't try anymore The whispers of the past they echo in my mind But I will forge ahead leaving all my fears behind My courage is my sword and my hope becomes my shield I'll gladly give my all until victory is revealed Well I may singe my wings Or I might go down in flames But still I have to try Or I'll never be the same I have to make that leap of faith I have to fight against the odds And I'll race against the Devil And I'll stand up to the gods Icarus had his moment in the sun And I won't stop trying 'til I've won
