So, this was not how you planned it. No, oh you don't understand it. Why, is it so misleading? When all you really wanted became so defeating. Time, well it only got harder Thought you had one but it was another. Then, you believed in a breakthrough But it took you by surprise when you came out a fool. Chorus You gotta fail a thousand times Before you see it through. You gotta spend your last dime Before you ever make a million. You gotta know what brought you here And you gotta lose to persevere. But it's the way the sun will rise Through the darkest night. Yeah it's always been worth the fight. Hope, it can make you courageous It started out small, but now it's contagious. Strength, it's an honor you earn When you look back and see all the lessons you've learned. Chorus (x2) But you gotta fail a thousand times Before you see it through. You gotta spend your last dime Before you ever make a million. You gotta know what brought you here And you gotta lose to persevere. But it's the way the sun will rise Through the darkest night. Yeah it's always been worth the fight. Yeah it's always been worth the fight
