"dancer" lyrics

She from a small town with a bunch of small minds
Wanna be a star. Tell her that she won't shine
But, girl, it's time to live your own life

Yeah. You could be a dancer
Baby, you could fly
Anything could happen, if you see it in your mind
Say they got the answer, but they never try
They lie, and then they call it "advice"

So, so, don't you listen
They're jealous of the vision
If they don't see it happening, they need a new prescription
And a new perspective

I think I learned my lesson
No need to second-guess. I'm heaven-sent
I count my blessings like "whoa"
This what I prayed for
Yeah. I've been growing from the storm. That's what the rain for
They like to say they're well-informed
But they're just mad they never scored
And if they say I'll never do it, I'm 'a do it more

She in school for now, but she hate it
Said she'd rather be rich and famous
Said she wanna live a good life
Baby, you could moon-walk
You could touch the sky

You could be a dancer
Baby, you could fly
Anything could happen, if you see it in your mind
Say they got the answer, but they never try
They lie, and then they call it "advice"

They think they're right
But they don't know their right from left
Stuck in their mind
They travel but they never left
'Cause it's a prison
When you're locked inside the limits of the things that you've been thinking
You could call it "reminiscing"
But it's not that
You gotta break free
They say it's not bad
They call it "safety"
But me. I'd rather live inside my daydream
I do what I love so they could hate me

She in school for now, but she hate it
Said she'd rather be rich and famous
Said she wanna live a good life
Baby, you could moon-walk
You could touch the sky

Yeah. You could be a dancer
Baby, you could fly
Anything could happen, if you see it in your mind
Say they got the answer, but they never try
They lie, and then they call it "advice"
