Victory Dance

Run to you
That's what I would always do
You were my light and my pathway too
Now all that is through

New Ideas
Escalate and make everyone fear
A change of heart and mind is always near
To what you hold dear

So tell me why should I care?
Why should I try to be there?
If you always try
If you always tried to win

You never gave me a chance
I never had my victory dance
I've always tried
I've always tried but couldn't win

You always held me down
Criticized when I wasn't around
You smiled when I was to be found
My ambitions you drowned

I think I'll pave my own road
Unearth my own silver and gold
I'll write new stories to be told
I will break the mold

But tell me why should I care?
Why should I try to be there?
If you always try
If you always tried to win

You never gave me a chance
I never had my victory dance
I've always tried
I've always tried but couldn't win

I won't pretend
To shine with you brightly
Your rules I bend
Your voice echoes lightly
I'll be there when
You recognize me
For who I am
Not who you want me to be

But until then...

Tell me why should I care
Why should I try to be there?
If you always try
If you always tried to win

You never gave me a chance
I never had my victory dance
I'll always try
I'll always try and I will win
