Hating the idea of giving up ones dreams just to live a quote normal life this song had to be written to represent that every chance is opportunity to become who ever you wanna be and that living is a gift that shouldn't be taken for granted.
lyrics
You aint nothing but the living dead
You’ve given up the dreams that used to fill you head
I think you see it now but you pretend not to notice
Because the mirrors better when it’s shifted from focus
You’re just like many and far from the few
You don’t really care if history remembers you
Why did you listen when they told you where nothing
This is your chance, An invitation to be
Something, Anything
All they said you couldn’t be
Look at me im living proof
Defying death is a daily pursuit
So you rise from the grave each and every day
Only to find your money burnt by the flames
And in the smoke and haze of confusion
It’s hard to keep yourself from the path of disillusion
You wanna feel that you matter to someone
You wanna see your name on the wall
Dream big, Grow young and know that
This is your chance, An invitation to be
Something, Anything
All they said you couldn’t be
Look at me im living proof
Defying death is a daily pursuit
Something, Anything
All they said you couldn’t be
Look at me im living proof
Defying death is a daily pursuit.
