Back when I was just a kid
+
Skin was paper thin
+
Folded up like origami
+
Turned the sensitivity in me into an army
+
Standing at the castle walls that stood before me
+
I couldn't climb until I learned to let the people in
+
Even though it hurt me, lit the fire from within
+
Made me feel like I can make it through anything
+
No matter what they bring, tell me that I'll never win
+
Everything I need is right in front of me
+
I wanna bridge the gap and feel the unity
+
Yeah, everything I need is in the air I breathe
+
You get back what you give, and I was born to live, born to live
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Feeling like you might not make it alone
+
'Cause I have walked a mile in your shoes
+
Yeah, I know all that you
+
I know all that you've been through
+
I wanna see the empire fall
+
Before I go, I wanna see justice for 'em all
+
I wanna see my daughters get married
+
But I can't if I'm in the cemetery
+
I can hear it when it calls
+
The call of the void I'll avoid til the very end
+
'Til the bad guys lose and the good guys win
+
'Til the grabbers lose their grip, ripped from under my skin
+
I'ma take a deep breath
+
Everything I need is right in front of me
+
I wanna bridge the gap and feel the unity
+
Yeah, everything I need is in the air I breathe
+
You get back what you give, and I was born to live, born to live
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Feeling like you might not make it alone
+
'Cause I have walked a mile in your shoes
+
Yeah, I know all that you
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh
+
I was born to live, born to live
+
Oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh
+
I was born to live, born to live
+
When I go to bed at night, I sleep with my demons
+
Pull the covers tight, the world could be freezing
+
I try to see the future through my daughter's eyes
+
Hoping they can see beyond the grey skies
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Feeling like you might not make it alone
+
'Cause I have walked a mile in your shoes
+
Yeah, I know all that you
+
I know all that you've been
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Feeling like you might not make it alone
+
'Cause I have walked a mile in your shoes
+
Yeah, I know all that you
+
I know all that you've been through
+
Oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh
+
I was born to live, born to live
+
Oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh, oh we yeah, oh
+
I was born to live, born to live
+
