Carpe diem
by August Burns Red

I´ve thrown away all of my outside distractions.
I´m diving headfirst to chase a dream
That I won´t let go
"It´s worthless
A waste of time.
This goal is out of reach.
You better fall back in line."
This is what I need.
You are what I need.
I need motivation
To prove you wrong
And I will prove you wrong.
"What makes you think that you are different?
How can you chase these dreams?
They´ve become a chore."
I know I´m close.
I´m almost there.
Just a little more
And I will prevail
Through what you call "ignorance".
I will prevail.
{Instrumental}
Now I´ve chased this dream
To do what I love
And I wouldn´t trade it for a thing.
Now
I´ve chased this dream
And I made it out alive.
I wouldn´t trade it for a thing.
I threw away what naysayers say
And started on a race that I
Had to win for myself.
"And you proved me wrong
You proved me wrong."
All I´ve learned is teaching me more.
All I know is driving me on.
I´m diving headfirst to chase a dream
That I won´t let go
"It´s worthless
A waste of time.
This goal is out of reach.
You better fall back in line."
This is what I need.
You are what I need.
I need motivation
To prove you wrong
And I will prove you wrong.
"What makes you think that you are different?
How can you chase these dreams?
They´ve become a chore."
I know I´m close.
I´m almost there.
Just a little more
And I will prevail
Through what you call "ignorance".
I will prevail.
