"Fade Away" lyrics

They told me I couldn't do it
That I would stumble and fall
I will get cuts and bruises
That I just should give up
That was what powered my flame
And that's why it's still burning
I just had to prove them wrong

Oh, they always bring me down
But oh, I'll always stand my ground

And I'll walk, walk, walk until the very top
And I'll run, run, even though I stumble and fall
And I'll jump, jump, jump until I reach the sun
And I'll shine, shine, shine until my light fades away

You'll take two steps forward
But you'll fall three steps back
You'll end up where you started
But you'll still have to fight
Have to change the story
Have to turn it around
Have to prove to all of them
That they were never right

Oh, they always bring me down
But no, I'll always stand my ground

And I'll walk, walk, walk until the very top
And I'll run, run, even though I stumble and fall
And I'll jump, jump, jump until I reach the sun
And I'll shine, shine, shine until my light

Don't stop 'til you finish, that's what I'm always thinking
Don't care what they say, you didn't ask for their opinion
They're talking like that because they know that I am winning
Just hear what they say, it's their jealousy speaking
Don't stop 'til you finish, that's what I'm always thinking
Don't care what they say, you didn't ask for their opinion
They're talking like that 'cause they know that I am winning
Just hear what they say, it's their jealousy speaking

Walk, walk, walk until the very top
And I'll run, run, even though I stumble and fall
And I'll jump, jump, jump until I reach the sun
And I'll shine, shine, shine until my light
And I'll walk, walk, walk until the very top
And I'll run, run, even though I stumble and fall
And I'll jump, jump, jump until I reach the sun
And I'll shine, shine, shine until my light

Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
Fades away
