Grab Hold of Your Wishes Straight From the Stars

The world you know is holding you back
But why are you putting up with the cloud of black
Reach up and pull your dreams from the sky
Don’t ever let time pass you bye

You are stronger than you know 
You’re a fighter on the go
The power flows from your hand
The ground shakes at your command
Don’t be held down with chains and bars
Grab hold of your wishes straight from the stars

You’re being controlled by what people have to say
Empower yourself to make it through the day
You’ve taken a lot of flack now its time to start giving
You’re going on with your life but its really living

You are stronger than you know 
You’re a fighter on the go
The power flows from your hand
The ground shakes at your command
Don’t be held down with chains and bars
Grab hold of your wishes straight from the stars
