lyrics

young soldiers, new poets
dancers that can't control it
daydreamers that ignore teachers
future pilots, stage performers
let the drive start taking over
beyond the talent that you're born with
amateurs to great composers
captains approaching oceans
stay afloat and keep hope close
unless you try, you'll never know so go...

go and reach for the sun, reach for the sun
it's what you were born to do
and it's the only way to get us all back home

I feel desperate, broken
discouraged and hopeless
been paying dues for years, it's true
so hard to keep my focus
do I give up on the notion
dreams come true for those
that never lose faith or hold back
everything's fading so fast
I don't know when to call it quits
don't know what all's at risk
when the hallway walls fall empty, God forbid
I never took the time to hang those pictures
never had the time to take them either
the preoccupied believer
with my eyes on one achievement
will life pass by before I see it
damn, there's only one way to know
and I'll die trying just to go

go and reach for the sun, reach for the sun
it's what you were born to do
and it's the only way to get us all back home

you were just small child
filled with possibilities
your imagination would take you to stations
that trains had never seen
just look at the trees
just look at your veins that bleed
everything starts from a specific location
and then it branches out to reach

go and reach for the sun, reach for the sun
(reach for the sun and reach for your dreams)
it's what you were born to do
(and reach for the things in which we believe)
and it's the only way to get us all back home
